Designed by the legendary Walter Plunkett, this striped gown appeared in the heartwarming 1949 production of 𝑳𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒍𝒆 𝑾𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒏, on Janet Leigh in her role as Meg March.   Years later, the gown found its way back to the silver screen in the lively 1957 film 𝑺𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏 𝑩𝒓𝒊𝒅𝒆𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝑺𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏 𝑩𝒓𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒔, where Betty Carr wore it as Sarah Kine.   Want more details?

In Little Women, Louisa May Alcott wrote that Laurie has "curly black hair, black eyes and brown skin", but Laurie has never been played by a brown-skinned actor. In this episode you will also learn about Laurie's relationship with his grandfather and the loss of his parents. How Hollywood has actively erased major parts of Laurie's personality, such as his vanity and temper, things that also play major roles in his character arc, and why he moves on from Jo to Amy. Once again, this is something that is completely erased from Little Women films between 1933 and 2019.
