"LITTLE WOMEN" (1970) Review

"LITTLE WOMEN" (1970) Review

It is very rare to find a British adaptation of an American novel. It is even rarer to find more than one adaptation. Louisa May Alcott's 1868 novel, "Little Women" must have been very popular with the BBC network. The latter had adapted the novel four times. Several years ago, I had seen the network's 2017 version. I thought it was the only version adapted by the BBC . . . until I had stumbled across the 1970 adaptation.

Set during the 1860s decade, "LITTLE WOMEN" told the story of the four March sisters of Concord, Massachusetts and their coming of age stories during and after the U.S. Civil War. With second daughter Josephine aka Jo serving as the story's main protagonist, the miniseries focused on the sisters' struggles with the family's diminished finances, their personal ambitions and especially their love lives. Early in the story, the March sisters become acquainted with their neighbor, one Theodore "Laurie" Lawrence, grandfather Mr. Lawrence and his tutor, John Brooke. Whereas third sister Beth develops a friendship with the elderly Mr. Lawrence, oldest sister Meg falls in love with Mr. Brooke, and the youngest Amy develops from a slightly vain and coddled child to a mature and self-assured young woman. As for Jo, the story focused on her development from a temperamental and stubborn girl, who learns to maintain her hot temper, navigate through her relationships with two men and adhere to her ambitions to become a writer.

Another surprising aspect of "LITTLE WOMEN" that I had learned was that it was the longest adaptation of Alcott's novel with a total running time of 225 minutes. This gave screenwriters Alistair Bell and Denis Constanduros to be as faithful to Alcott's novel as possible. Were they? Somewhat. The pair did take care to explore Laurie's volatile relationship with his grandfather - something that a good number of the other adaptations had failed to do. And it allowed glimpses into his growing relationship with Amy in Europe. Also, the early stages of Meg's marriage to Mr. Brooke ended up being explored, something that only the 2019 movie adaptation had repeated. I believe the miniseries did a very solid job of conveying these aspects of Alcott's novel.

But the miniseries left out Meg and Laurie's experiences at Annie Moffat's party. The miniseries also left out the sisters meeting with Laurie's English friends - something only the 2017 adaptation had included. Bell and Constanduros had changed the time period of Amy's near drowning at Walden Pond from the winter to either the spring or summer, allowing a rickety pier to send her into the pond, instead of thin ice. And it never touched on Amy's violent encounter with her schoolteacher over pickled limes. Did these aspects of the screenplay harm the production? Hmmmm . . . perhaps not. But I do feel that the miniseries' increased emphasis on the Lawrence men's relationship came dangerously close to overshadowing the March sisters' own relationships. I am relieved that the miniseries managed to focus somewhat on Jo's relationship with Professor Bhaer. However, I do have a problem with the sexist manner in which Constanduros and Bell had the professor viewed his future marriage to Jo. Whatever admiration Professor Bhaer had for Jo's writing skills seemed to fly out of the window in his anticipation of her being a good wife. Superficially, I had no problems with the brief focus on Meg and John's marriage, even if it could have been somewhat more thorough. But I believe it exposed what I believe was one of the miniseries' main problems.

"LITTLE WOMEN" did have its share of problems. Like the 1978 television adaptation, it is clear to see that it suffered somewhat from a low budget. If I must be frank, that seemed to be more obvious in this adaptation. Aside from Amy's near drowning at Walden Pond and some of European settings featuring Amy and Laurie, all other scenes had obviously been shot inside a studio. Very disappointing, considering a good number of BBC productions featured a mixture of interior and exterior shots. I found the actresses' makeup and hair - especially the latter - to be inconsistent and frankly, a big mess. Betty Aldiss' costume designs seemed solid enough, but not particularly earth shattering. Although the cast solely featured British performers, I believe a handful of them managed to handle American accents quite well - especially Stephen Turner, Stephanie Bidmead and Martin Jarvis. But despite their solid or excellent performances, the rest of the cast seemed to struggle maintaining one. And could someone please explain why three of the actresses who portrayed the March sisters seemed to be incredibly loud? Nearly every time one of them spoke, I had to turn down my television's volume. Some have explained these scenes featuring quarreling between the four sisters. They have even gone as far to claim this adaptation was the only one that featured the sisters often quarreling. Well, they would be wrong. Nearly every adaptation (I am not certain about the 1933 movie) of Alcott's novel featured quarrels between the sisters. So, this explanation does not strike me as a good excuse for the loud voices.

Judging from the previous paragraph, one would assume I have a low opinion of the majority of performances featured in "LITTLE WOMEN". Not really. Most of the performances featured in the miniseries struck me as pretty solid. Actresses Angela Down ("Jo"), Jo Rowbottom ("Meg"), Janina Faye (Amy) and Sarah Craze ("Beth") all gave solid performances and managed to capture the nuances of their individual characters in a competent manner. As I had stated earlier, I had a problem with most of them - with the exception of Craze - resorting to loud and histrionic voices in their portrayals of the March sisters at a younger age or in the case of Rowbottom, engaged in a heated quarrel. I thought Jean Anderson gave a solid performance as the stuffy Aunt March. Frederick Jaeger gave a very likeable performance as Jo's love interest, the intellectual Professor Friedrich Bhaer. And I believe the actor had a solid screen chemistry with Down. I really had a problem with actress Pat Nye, who portrayed the family's housekeeper, Hannah. Nye's handling of Hannah's American accent struck me as ridiculously exaggerated . . . to the point that her accent almost seemed Southern. Patrick Troughton, a talented actor in his own right, had more or less been wasted in his role as the family's patriarch, Mr. March. I do not believe he had spoken more than three to five lines in this production.

I can think of at least four performances that really impressed me. It seemed a pity that not one of them came from the four actresses who portrayed the sisters. Oh well. John Welsh has my vote as the second best version of Mr. James Lawrence, the March family's wealthy neighbor. I thought he did an excellent job of developing his character from a strict and curmudgeon guardian to a warm-hearted man who learned to develop a relationship with his grandson. Most portrayals of John Brooke, Meg's future husband, have never impressed me. But I must say that I found Martin Jarvis's portrayal of the character more than impressive. The actor was given an opportunity to delve more into Mr. Brooke's personality and he ended up giving one of the better performances in the miniseries. If given the chance to vote for the best performance in "LITTLE WOMEN", I would give it to Stephen Turner for his portrayal of the sisters' close friend, Theodore "Laurie" Lawrence. I suspect Turner had greatly benefited from Bell and Constanduros's script, which seemed more interested in Laurie as a character than the four leads. But judging from Turner's performance, I suspect his would have overshadowed everyone else's due to the actor's superb handling of the character. I also have to compliment Stephanie Bidmead's portrayal of the March family's matriarch, Mrs. "Marmee" March. Not only did I find her performance warm and elegant, but it also lacked the dripping sentimentality of the earlier versions and the heavy-handed attempts to make the character "modern" - relevant to today's movie and television audiences.

"LITTLE WOMEN" had its flaws. I cannot deny this. But I feel its flaws - which included a limited budget and some questionable American accents - were not enough to dismiss the nine-part miniseries as unworthy. I believe the 1970 miniseries proved to be a lot more solid and entertaining than some fans of Alcott's novel believed, thanks to Paddy Russell's competent direction, a damn good screenplay by Denis Constanduros and Alistair Bell, and a first-rate cast led by Angela Down.

Originally, the Glamrock Fredbear jaeger was piloted by Frederick "Freddy" and his husband, Bonatello "Bonnie". but then the program needed another pilot (and with pilots dropping like flies, they couldn't afford to have two experienced pilots in the same jeager). Freddy was paired up with someone he was barely compatible with and so was bonnie. They were some of the only pilots with in-field experience left, so they understood why, but that didn't stop them from dreaming of drifting together again.

Then the accident happened. from the mixture of Bonnie not feeling connected to his copilot and Afton's influence, the Glamrock Bonnie was lost to a gator-like kaiju with purple claws. It was in so many pieces they couldn't even recover the body or the bodies of the pilots.

Freddy was lost. He couldn't give up piloting, as he was one of the only seasoned pilots left at the end of the world. But he was never the same. He cycled through copilots until they made him go on mandatory leave.

He stayed on-base helping out but was not allowed to drift anymore. With his newfound freedom, Freddy found himself almost bored. Imagine that, bored while the world was ending. He tried not to think about it too hard. Then a kid had somehow snuck on base.

Freddy immediately knew he didn't belong, but Gregory (plz ignore the fact I made Gregory a kaiju already dsfkhfk I guess the other one is the mimic or smtn 💀) was too endearing to turn in. He let the boy follow him around, saying he was the nephew of his aunt's half sister (on his dad's side) to anyone who asked. It was a total lie of course, neither of them had any family alive, but people believed it because of how close they seemed. Freddy became somewhat of a dad to him, though gregory would never admit it.

Then the program was dropped by the government. Pentecost was trying to hold everything together, but before they had support from other nations they had no pilots left (not counting Pentecost). all except one.

Freddy stepped up, of course the fool did. But he would have had to pilot alone. Until his almost son snuck into somewhere she shouldn't have been for the second time. Freddy and his son Gregory would pilot the jaeger together. The Fredbear walked once again.

Having heard so much about how bad Dracula adaptations tend to be (specially on the Mina-Jonathan front) and being a radio drama fan myself, I went to look what BBC radio dramas I could find and share with you, pending review (if you know of others that are longer than a single one hour episode, feel free to add them on a reblog!):

1991. - 7 half-hour episodes, dramatised by Nick McCarthy, Directed by Hamish Wilson, and starring Frederick Jaeger, Phillis Logan, and Bernard Holle.

You can find a recording here:

And here:

2003 - This is more a dramatic reading than a whole radio play: 10 15-minute episodes. The novel was abridged by Daragh Carville, read by Michael Fassbender as Jonathan, and including the voices of James D'Arcy as Dr. Seward, Gillian Kearney as Mina, and James Greene as Van Helsing.

You can find it here:

Fun Fact: David Suchet played Van Helsing twice in 2006, once for a BBC One TV movie (Dan Stevens plays Arthur in this one!), and then for a radio drama with Tom Hiddleston:

2006 - Dramatized by Liz Lochhead on a single play of about 2 hours, starring Tom Hiddleston as Jonathan. This one is a tough cookie to find info about because it's off the BBC website, although you can find it on Audible and Google Play.

2012 - This is the one I linked that was made available again back in May. It's presented as "reimagined" by Rebecca Lenkiewicz in 2 1 hour episodes. Directed by Jessica Dromgoole, and starring Nicky Henson, Michael Shelford, and Ellie Kendrick. You can find it here:

https://archive.org/details/dracula_202206

(sorry, Tumblr refuses to embed it for some reason).

EDIT:

2008 - A Robert Forrest dramatization of the voyage of the Demeter, a 1 hour play:
