I had the biggest crush on Laurie as a kid, not even Christian bale, just Laurie as a character, now timothee chalamet has equally taken my heart
But let's be honest we totally were crushing on Christian Bale too
Same😂😍
Same and also in Jo tbh xd
Anna Lee she just said she wasn’t
@@annaoffive yepppp
Jo's so beautiful in this version, was so unnatural when they said that her hair was her one beauty, she was literally the fairest of them all.
Exactly.
The heroine is usually the prettiest in films
@@Tara-js3bv True, but this wasn't L. May Alcott's vision and if the character is supposed to deviate from standard beauty, it makes more sense. Not a lot of main characters who look like everyday people we all can connect with. Earlier versions were more accurate in those terms. Just very unnatural when they call her ugly.
@@inkkvibe I completely agree with you. Winona Ryder is really beautiful and doesn't fit the description of Jo. I've always loved Jo for the way she was in the books.
I always thought Meg was the most pretty of the sisters in this adaptation.
is anyone else here after watching that new Little Women clip of Timothee Chalamet and Saoirse Ronan
ME!
Do ya'll know this move though?
@@fromasgardwithlove2257 Yes! :) I'm still sorta latching on to Winona Ryder as Jo and Christian Bale as Laurie though. They did a great job in this movie.
Yes and this version is still a million times better.
@@WhitneyWorthyStyle Have you seen the new version?
oh my god what a young Christian bale
Check out Empire of the Sun.
I recognized him a few seconds into the clip. Wow, this must be very old 😁🤭
*what a young Bruce Wayne
@@suziq4ever to a 20 something i guess..
@@stephaniesimpson1150 20
christian bale was MAD hot here
Yeah nothings gonna beat this version of Little Women for me! Ryder and Bale really capture teddy/jo's playfulness and innocence so well.
Agreed
Totally agree......
The new is also good.
I think the new version is wayyyy better. But to each their own.
I liked the new one I just grew up with this version so this will always be one of my favorites.
after all these years, i still ship them together 😭
Ahhh!! My fellow Black Widow
@@polastankova hello fellow widow!
Me too...
"You see I don't know anyone so I feel awkward standing at staring at people..." LOL WHY IS THIS ME.
jo and laurie dancing is always gonna be my favorite part of this movie and all the other adaptations
As someone who has done more traditional dancing I can vouch for the fun that can be had for being silly with the dances you know well, there is no need to make up new moves for a dance to be fun, silly and enjoyable.
What was great about this version is that unlike others, recent and prior, it didn’t feel like people were acting their famous parts. It felt like watching a family of sisters and their real lives in the 1800’s. Their behaviors, reactions and bonds felt natural and realistic, as opposed playing a part.
I like the new one, but I agree I didnt feel the chemistry between the sisters. It seemed like they were acting a part.
@@ccverdera6298 I've related so much for this version because of the sisterly bond. They really acted like a family and seem homely - just like my family. And Laurie here reminded me of older guy friends I had (me speaking from my own experience in Asia). It's a well cast and finely acted film.
@@ccverdera6298 The new one? Lol. Let's take a look for the prior ones from the 50's and 30's, they are much better.
I don’t like this new version. Some of the casting is fine but others is just a head scratcher. And then the voice of the movie was just yuck!
100%agree
After her, "Are you shocked?" I crack up every time at Laurie's face, because he is just trying to follow along with her one-sided ramblings, and then he doesn't know how to react to the question. There's the slight pause, then he just nods. 😆😅
He seems to be following fine. But when she asks that question, he's trying to hide the fact that he already knows she's into acting/the stage.
I wish Christian bale had played more romantic roles like this!
I’m sad they didn’t end up together😭
the writer I know, I remember reading little women few years ago, and really hoping Laurie and jo would end up together... but they don’t
You have to read this book as a kid and then understand in your adult years that the writer ad the character did great in not choosing Laurie
@@stankssmile5865 the writer did this since they sent letters to her about who jo is going to marry her publishers wanted her to do this so in the end she did this as cruel joke to show that women don't need marriage to be happy of successful
That was so disappointing when first I watch it
@@mary-anne. she did, but still Jo and Laurie were too strong and had different interests in life, and they wouldn´t be happy together.
How could anyone turn Christian Bale's love confession down.
I will marry him to console his broken heart...
I aint gaayayyy
@@kappa3667 bruh
@@drugdealer6 Your insta is private I have requested a follow por favor
This is the Little Women movie that everyone should watch! Winona worked hard to get this movie made back then with a great female director and wonderful casting. The best version for sure!
It was Polly Klaas' favorite book. For those who don't know or remember, Polly Klaas was a famous kidnapping case. In 1993, she was abducted from her home during a sleepover. Winona, who grew up in the same town, became very involve with finding her, including offering a money reward for her safe return. Alas, Polly was strangled to death by her captor. In her honor, Winona went out of her way to make a film version of *Little Women* and dedicated it to her.
Yes but the new version should be watched as well! It's so very well done!
Little Women 2019 Best version
MayLily i agree with you
@@monicamoreno6920 Says every late Millennial and Gen Z who doesn't read these books anyway. I'm reminded of the way Netflix butchered Anne of Green Gables. The actors were great but the script is filled with these anachronisms which in a decade now will be dated since it only goes with the zeitgeist of the time.
“She’s completely bald in front!” Oh Jo wahaha!
Well kids, this is what you call chemistry
@Natalie Derr Jo had just burnt a piece of Meg's hair while curling it prior to the ball.
😂😂😂😂
"Are you shocked"
lil smile: "Very"
God he's so charming in this
Or creepy
@@darthslayder6904 YOU are CREEPY
Really charming
The acting in this was amazing they couldn't have picked better actors
Its a shame that saoirse and timothée don’t dance like them. This was just one thing that maked this version so natural and unique. Anyway. It’s just my favourite version of the story and I love it so much.
Exactly. It's what established the good chemistry between Jo and Laurie on here for me, and which even as good friends I found more believable than the new version.
Saoirse and Timothee dance was a lot of fun but it looked a bit theatrical and rehearsed. This one looks natural, like something two new friends would dance on the spot.
Their dancing in new version ridiculous and wouldn't have happened..
Christian bale is so beautifu.
This chemistry of them is so much better than the other one
So true. The sisterly bond is also better portrayed here and much more relatable than the newer version.
no way but they are amazing actors. times change and the concept of chemistry between actors change as well
@@tripletroubletruffle9827 times never change for the classics they are supposed to be...they knew that when they made this film in 1994 and didnt modernize it...thats why its timeless and the best...the 2019 will be outdated in a few years..
And the cinematography
@@stephaniesimpson1150 But the time in which it is made influences the product, not necessarily changing it drastically. You can say that this is a movie from the 90s, just like the new one is from 2019.
You forget the subject of the chosen interpretation of the literary work and consequently the mood of the film. This, apart from the prominence given to each sister and the quality of their individual performances, is why almost all Little Women adaptations are so different from one another!
Nothing beats Winona's version.
Lol okayyy
Jo was supposed to be a tomboy.
This version was horrible
Ryder is a terrible Jo
whitter86 Freedom of interpretation doesn’t have to stick to literal interpretation. That’s the genius of LM Alcott. Her book is flexible to many different interpretations. Kind of like Shakespeare. Just because Winona did not play Jo as an actual tomboy doesn’t mean her interpretation is horrible.
whitter86 I love Winona in this version! I liked Soarise Ronan but she was just okay. Timothee was a much better Laurie tho
WINONA AS JO 💖 i like saiorse but i think winona played jo very well
@@sunshinedaisies5893 saoirse Ronan is pretty Jo and betrays the tomboy brillantly
Nothing beats this version
At least the story makes sense
1950's, 1930's.
Yes 😂 thank goodness you agree
I agree very much!!!
I tried to watch the 2019 version but I like the 1994 more :( This version have the same feel as the book.. I am biased because I love the book so much that I can't appreciate the creative liberties took by the new version.
I wholeheartedly agree. I felt this capture more the spirit of the characters from the book.
I agree. Saoirse is GREAT in movies like Brooklyn. But in Little Women, the rest of the cast couldn't compliment her enough. All of the cast worked together perfectly in the 1994 film
who prefers this laurie to the 2019 version?
It's only version
This film has soul. It makes me feel together with the characters. Their joy and pain is so authentic.
I love the chatacter of laurie in this adaptation because you can see how he changed after Jo rejected him. Like watch him in this scene he's sweet loveable Laurie and watch a scene after rejection he's like another person
My favourite part is when Jo refers to Laurie as "The Captive". His reaction is so cute: the smile fades, there's confusion. 🤣
Christian bale IS Laurie
Christian Bale has been best Laurie Lawrence and Best Batman ever. PERIOD..!
If only Josh Hartnett did Batman
Their acting is so natural - it feels like two real people actually meeting for the first time. There’s nothing that feels theatrical or rehearsed about this. Especially the way he says “I don’t, uh, know anyone so I feel awkward just standing and staring at people.” Such a genuine line delivery; not stagey or dramatic, just Christian being a vulnerable young man. And their attempt at dancing is also so realistically awkward and adorable! Bravo, Winona & Christian!
in this version, jo and laurie had so much more chemistry even from when they first met
when after watching the 2019 film, you love the 1994 version even more
So true. I just saw the new one and it doesn't compare at all to this one. This is still the best version 👌👌👌
2019 :( bring back the 90s.
I don’t even wanna watch the new one cause I like this one so much :(
I'm glad I only know the new one because this one seems super awkward
@@raelalaful why? It looks natural how they interact.
“Shame you don’t know the lady’s part!”
Omg I completely forgot Laurie was Christian Bale!
Laurie’s face after Jo refers to him as “the captive” 🤣
I prefer this version to the latest remake with its annoying flashbacks and attempts to haul it into the 21st century.
Meg was always so unnervingly proper. Almost annoyingly so. Reminds me so much of my older sister. Lol
Meg is the consummate older sister.
@@stillsearching1284 Jo march is the best march sister
@@charlenerafferty3534 jo and Beth! But jo will always be my favorite March sister!
It's cause she remembers when they were rich, before their dad lost his fortune. She's the only sister who does.
She reminds me of Mary Ingalls, the older sister to Laura Ingalls Wilder.
Besides the point that their relationship was platonic, I would choose Laurie over Bhaer any day of the week.
1. Know’s Jo as her most authentic self
2. They both have an interest for art
3. The have a lot in common
4. They both have a sense of humour
5. They both are stubborn and have a bad temper at times, but know how to own up to their mistakes and manage.
6. Both can be social and outgoing as well as quiet and introverted.
Gelatin Man Jo at 15 as her most authentic self? I don’t know anyone who would want to be 15 again, you don’t really understand who you are and what your place in the world is yet.
Jo was always more mature than Laurie, which also explains why, to me, she knew early on that they weren’t right for each other.
Adrienne Pender times have changed depending on whether being 15 was the most enjoyable. Also people married younger than and a lot of things like graduating high school and having children, happened 2-6 years earlier. I don’t mean her knowing everything, in the society at that time there wasn’t much opportunity for her anyways besides getting married and having children, but she could always put the acceptance on hold as long as she agreed to stay with him. When I mean as authentic Jo, I mean funny, smart, mature, boyish Jo, the one where she doesn’t feel shy. Also l in the book the sisters are friends with Laurie for 3 years, then there is the 4 year time jump, so Jo is was actually 22 when he proposed.
If it were that you're Jo :D. I understood that the author didn't end up pairing them as a way to 'rebel' against her publishers. Then she was pressured regardless to end the story with Jo being paired up so she came up to what she'd consider as her ideal match/partner...so therefore Bhaer.
Tracy S I do think Laurie and Jo have a good relationship. But the way the novel ends sends such as message to young people that “improper/not idealistic” relationships are bad unless society says it is and that you can love someone outside of their wealth and your ideals. In the movie adaptations I will always stand by Jo and Laurie as for the books it makes lots of sense for their platonic relationship. From the start of the novel Jo makes it very clear that their relationship with each other is platonic whereas Laurie has an unrequited love for Jo that is obviously not returned. When Laurie says Jo’s sister Meg “is very pretty,” he was waiting for her reaction but she agreed with him otherwise she would’ve said Meg “was just fine, or what about me?” Therefore feeling jealousy for his “attraction” to Meg.
Actually I think the novel ended on a pretty good note, morally. Of course this is only my interpretation of it, but I see it as Jo having the freedom to choose who she wants to be, which coincides quite well with how Jo is portrayed in the novel, someone who is, well, free-willed(I meant someone who do not care about the usual civilities and what is considered proper in society) . I think the fact that she ended up marrying Bhaer is a testament to her growth, because at the beginning of little women until moments before the ending of Good Wives, Jo is portrayed as being in love in independence, but then she realized that independence is nothing compared to freedom, including freedom from what she force herself to do, that is to not fall in love(shown by her saying that she will probably never marry). By marrying Bhaer, she is showing that she finally is free, that is free to choose who she wants to be with and what she wanted to do.
The 2019 version is a disgrace compared to this version.
OMG I rember reading Little Women and falling in love with the character Laurie. I thought Christian Bale was so dreamy.
Still Do ;) Fan woman for Life.
Completely one of my favorite scenes. Love how she threw her sister under the bus… “she’s completely bald in front”. So nonchalantly. What a hater! 🤣
Still my favorite version of Little Women. In the older ones - from 1933 and 1949 - both actors who played Laurie were just too old (both well above 20 years old) not convincing at all. Bale was perfect mix : still young - 20 yrs old, but not too young, not looking like a child as Tim in the latest version from 2019. Bale's looks and aura were perfect : if you look at him here, he has delicacy and sensitivity, but at the same time he is manly. The perfect combination that no previous version of Laurie had, and from what I saw, the newest is also missing (Chalamet is too childish looking). Besides, Christian and Winona in particular, had amazing chemistry. Beautiful couple.
I didn't know they had an affair. Interesting!
Update:
Apparantly them dating is fake news.
"Christain Bale and Winona Ryder (been friends since Little Women; in fact, Ryder introduced Bale to his future wife)"
NatKK where did you see they had an affair?

"Christain Bale and Winona Ryder (been friends since Little Women; in fact, Ryder introduced Bale to his future wife)"
yes!!!
I agree
I think the acting is so much better and natural in this version and Jo and Laurie have more chemistry.
help christian bale is too adorable in this it feels illegal
They're so cute when they're dancing!
Вау, в этой версии Джо и Лори очень красивые. В новом сериале не нравятся, там актёры играют с современными повадками. А здесь и манера говорить, и бытность 19 века лучше передана. Замечательный фильм.
So much alike here. They both want to be free of the worldly formalities -- the society party (both are off on the sidelines, not taking it seriously). He doesn't want to be forced to attend college, while she wants to break the barrier of going to college. Want to do a handshake. Both of them are socially awkward and weird, yet so comfortable together. Sitting on a desk, devouring Teddy's dessert, and they barely know each other, opening up about her dream of the stage/their dislikes. Jo forgets all about her damage to her dress. And when she is reminded of it, she doesn't take it seriously. Dancing around the house, lost in each other. Genuinely having fun! Their energy matches. And neither one of them disapproved of one another.
Of course, they have their rows, but are still so accepting of each other. Challenging, accepting. That's a real team right durr.
No matter what this version is still much better than the 2019 one. Casting, chemistry, the way they talked in the movie...it is the true version of Little Women, if you have read the book, you would know that.
I remember being sad that Jo didn’t marry Laurie, but after you read the book it makes so much more sense for her not to.
Does anyone else think Winona Ryder's eyes really stand out? It's like they look bigger than actually they are. I can't figure it out but they are really gorgeous.
Winona Ryder is beautiful
Christian's voice! Still husky. ❤️
POV: you’re trying to make a Laurie edit but you can only find Timmy scenes and not the og Christian bale Laurie and it makes u upset Bc of how underrated he is
I love how awkward and natural they are in this scene
I was watching scenes from the 2019 one and it kinda just made me feel wrong. Like something about it just bugs me
I have seen the trailer for the new version and still think Christian Bale is better as Laurie. The other actor looks really young and I don't find him as good-looking. For me Winona and Christian are still the best Jo and Laurie
Still the best, probably the endearing soundtracks by Thoman Newman adding the depths to each scenes!
The only good version. You tube only recommend this one to me
i have crush on laurie
I love this scene so much... 😂
It just makes you feel happy the way they dance together.
Must’ve watched this 100 times
Louisa May Alcott would be so thrilled that the world is still talking about her novel, re-interpreting it, and holding it close to our hearts in a really personal way. I feel like she'd love all versions of the film just for the love they show for the story in return.
Nope she wouldn't like the new version where it jumps forward and back in time 12 times..I know the story inside out and got confused watching its ..look bets very sick in be d Jo is with her she recovers hang on 2 mins late she is dead and 5 mins later after the funeral we see megs wedding and shes a bridesmaid ...etc etc..
@@annehathaway2107 get off your high horse
Cinematography wise, this version is far superior to the new remake. The new movie looks like a Hallmark TV movie by comparison. The incredible cinematography in the 1994 film transports you back to that time and you don't even need the actors. But they end up being the cherry on top.
This by far will always be my favorite little women❤️
This version of little woman is the best!! Winona is excelent Jo.
I just realized all over again what a gem this movie is. ❤
I understand where Gerwig was coming from, but her shenanigans can't beat raw emotion.
Winona ryder is seriously soooo beautiful❤
They are so cute 💝
This will always be my favorite version of Jo and Laurie. Christian Bale will forever be Laurie. Not that I didn’t like the new film - they’re very different but this movie is still the ultimate Little Women.
Love Winona!
This version of Little Women is the best!! 💗❤️💗❤️💗 😊
Saw the 2019 one, only liked the begining and the end with the publishing process and Meryl Streep as the aunt, wish she had more lines, and Amy and Laurie scenes in France, otherwise I feel like rewatching the 1994 one again, it simply takes you to the 19th century without time line distortions, making you feel like you are there.
Who else wishes they were Jo in this scene?
"does it hurt? *grabs the ankle*"
My beloved "Little Women". I grew up watching this version, and have never stopped watching it almost every year. I remember watching this a little over the New Year of 1995, and I was so taken by the story, I loved it so much I dreamt of its characters for days. I just finished watching Greta's version and I loved it too. I will not compare both versions. I loved both as they are.
I JUST FOUND OUT LAURIE WAS CHRISTIAN BALE
Does a young Christian Bale eating pudding make anyone else thirsty af? 😋
Bruce Wayne was dancing in the old times...then fought crime in Gotham
He also sang as a newsie too when he became an orphan
@@MiracleWinchester Don't forget he eventually became an American Psycho, who later took up auto racing.
The new version, great actors , but I dnt like the director decision of the flashbacks and filter on certain screens. I was so confused.
Jo and Laurie smiles together, how lovely.
i think the reason why i couldnt accept the amy-laurie in the 1994 version was bc of winona and christian's chemistry,,, just way too strong
They are adorable together! Jo and i would have gotten along well. Shes free spirited like me. She also had good taste in men.
those are the definitives Jo & Laurie!!! ♥
This is very first video clip I've ever watched of "Little Women" and I loved the story instantly. So beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤
I’m glad you like it. Is this your favorite version of Little Women? Also what time machine did you use to get here?
This version will always be my favorite!
I LOVE THEM. I hope the new version is good.
I've got to say, as much as I love Saoirse Ronan, Winona Rider's Jo is so perfectly outspoken, intelligent, funny and fiery. It's exactly how I imagined the character. Ronan gave a fantastic performance, but she was almost too soft-spoken at times. Jo is supposed to be awkward, bold and bizarre and Winona just effortlessly embodies this.
idk but this is still my favorite among the little women remake, it makes me cry and actors suited the character very well!
Prefiero a este Luarie que al de Timmothe (como se escriba..) Lmao
It’s so interesting comparing this to the version of Greta. I thin she did a really good job with Amy and the timeline thing.
Sadly I didn’t believe Emma Watson as Meg at all and we didn’t get to know Beth.
Jo is so beautiful.
Woow I just love Winona Ryder so much. Shes so charming😍😩❤
I Like better Winona than soirse to play Jo
Wait a damn minute.... is that Mrs. Byers from the Stranger Things?!
yes
Christian so cute!
It feels so strange and unnatural to see christian bale like this to me !! 😂 it's just that he's always so serious. Plus ive never seen a younger looking christian bale, i dont think. Also i cant believe this is the first time im learning that christian bale played laurie!!!!
He was in Empire of the Sun when he was much younger. Brilliant film.
@@alisonlekarev2183 Yes a must watch !
me too I was very surprised because he usually gets serious roles but his latest film Ford V Ferrari he a was a warmer character I would love to see him in more romantic roles
@@mariamasabek8109 You haven't seen him enough then. He was in several light hearted movies in the 90s like Newsies and Swing Kids. Very versatile actor.
Do you listen to huey lewis.
OMG winona was only 22 here!! So so young
Christian Bale🤩🤩🤩 and Winona
OH MY GOD!!! HE’S A 👶!!
Yes, he looks so young!!
This version looks so much better than the recent one.
