Growsonwalls February 10, 2020 Share February 10, 2020 I liked Florence Pugh but I thought "this movie is about AMY" is the weakest part of Gerwig's Little Women. I thought the Jo/Teddy story was really underdeveloped because so much was spent on Amy. Laura Dern is really beautiful and lovely and all but it's really jarring to see all her hair extensions. She has such a lovely natural style IRL. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/33299-the-annual-academy-awards-general-discussion/page/185/#findComment-5925235
