Another Little Women Film To Praise

Let's hope Greta Gerwig’s marvelous version of Little Women doesn’t get lost amid all the flashier movies released during this holiday season. Opening on  Christmas Day, it’s a perfect cinematic gift.  So, of course, it deserves a poem.

The March sisters on screen again.

Greta Gerwig gives them a spin.

“Little Women” – a tale well-told

and led by Jo, the sister bold.

Saoirse Ronan plays that key role

with intellect and heart and soul.

This version skips around in time,

which ends up being quite sublime.

A lovely film for families.

Plus other viewers it should please.

Remakes often fail movie fans.

Pray this one’s safe from critic pans.
