Film: Louisa May Alcott: The Woman Behind Little Women

(2010, NR, 84 min.)
Filmed on location at many places actually frequented by the real persons portrayed and featuring a script written by primary sources, this documentary tells the life story of American author Louisa May Alcott, chronicling her efforts to rescue her family from poverty and find wealth, fame, and happiness for herself. Included are animations and commentary from Alcott scholars, novelist Geraldine Brooks, and the "literary sleuths" who uncovered Alcott's lost thrillers.
