Fun, wacky and occasionally surprising, Gerwig’s candy-coloured third solo feature tries to say something about the perils of gender oppression and excessive commodification with moderate success.
Backed by superb performances, particularly from Saoirse Ronan and Florence Pugh, Greta Gerwig’s screen adaptation of Louisa May Alcott’s classic novel is refreshing, poignant and utterly compelling.
Saoirse Ronan and Laurie Metcalf shine in this generous, sincere if also wistful work from Greta Gerwig.
