British Period Drama · BBC / PBS · 2017
This lovingly mounted three-part adaptation of Louisa May Alcott's classic follows the March sisters — Jo, Meg, Beth, and Amy — from girlhood to adulthood while their father is away at war. Under Marmee's guidance they navigate first love, loss, sibling rivalry, and the question of what it means to become a young woman. With Maya Hawke, Emily Watson, and Angela Lansbury, it's comfort wrapped in nostalgia and kindness — keep the tissues handy.
