| Little Women, 1933 |

Little
Women was
Kate's third film and one of her best. As a child, Little Women,
written by Lousia May Alcott, was one of my favorite novels and
this RKO, George Cukor directed version of the film is, in my opinion,
the best. The beautiful way it was produced and photographed and
the moving story, have never been surpassed. Kate was born to play
Jo and she seems to me to be her. In fact, for the longest time
I thought this was what Katharine Hepburn was really like. I don't
think I'm far wrong. Its an enchanting film and worth seeing.
