Little Women

1948

Starring
Elizabeth Taylor
June Allyson
Margaret
O'Brien

Louisa May Walcott's novel with a fine cast.

It is surprising that this film was ever finished
given the problems that Mervyn Leroy had in keeping
Elizabeth Taylor, June Allyson, Margaret
O'Brien and Janet under control.
When they weren't giggling or fighting they were misbehaving.
The camaraderie of the "girls" comes across in the finished result
so maybe he thought it was worth the grey hairs.
