Jane Eyre Made two years after Citizen Kane, this 1943 version of Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre sure looks like star Orson Welles muscled his way behind the camera much of the time.

My favorite screen adaptation of Little Women!
The 1949 movie adaptation of Little Women is my favorite screen version and also one of the most gorgeous adaptations! The story of the four March sisters - Meg [Janet Leigh], Jo [June Allyson], Beth [Margaret O'Brien], and Amy [Elizabeth Taylor] and their mother, Marmie is a classic story that has held its appeal all these years. It's a human drama that is a blend of the comic and tragic and will have sensitive viewers reaching for their hankies during some of the heart-rending scenes [one of the sisters dies]. June Allyson shines as the strong-willed Jo March who dreams of becoming an author and whose feminist ideas are convincingly [though by no means overbearing] portrayed.Elizabeth Taylor's performance as Amy is the best of all the movie adaptations - and her 'growth' from a petulant child to a genteel young woman is very credibly done. Peter Lawford as their next-door neighbor, Laurie is credible but lacks the dashing looks of Christian Bale. This is not important however, as what I liked about Peter Lawford's performance here is the lack of chemistry between him and Allyson, which is apt considering Jo only thinks of Laurie as a brother/friend. I loved Rossano Brazzi's performance as Professor Bhaer [ok, perhaps he was too good-looking to make a credible Bhaer, but his character portrayal was excellent]. Watching this version in its full Technicolor production is a visual delight and will enthrall all fans of the classic novel as well as those who love period dramas.

little women
fantastic, great condition and price. quick delivery and great movie. recommend them to anyone purchasing a product. i will certaintly be looking for them in future purchases.

Right title, wrong movie
The movie arrived in good condition and quickly. The only problem was, I had ordered the older version of the movie (1949), not the 1994 version.

The Best Version of Little Women Ever Produced, Hands Down!
As far as I'm concerned, this is the best and most entertaining version of Little Women ever produced--hands down! June Allyson's dynamic portrayal of "Jo" is magnanimous; from her delightful tomboyish mannerisms to her non-stop quest to become a great writer, June's "Jo" exudes personality with a capital "P!" Although Allyson is my favorite actress in this production, I also enjoyed Elizabeth Taylor's "hoity toity" "Amy" persona, as well as Margaret O'Brien's poignant depiction of "Beth." This gem of a movie rolls sentimentality, realism, romanticism, frivolity, and hope all into one!
