>Well is you're a terrible person I must be too, I wasn't moved by Beth's
death either even though I read it at a really young age, 

I wasn't really moved by it either. I'm a *huge* LW fan, btw, so I had to
comment on this thread :).

>oh well that's just me, rarely moved by anything 

Some things really move me, and some just...don't. I think it depends on me
at the time more than whether the book/show, etc is more or less moving
than another, somehow.

>well can't think of anything at the moment other then I didn't care for
the ships of Little Women when I was younger but know I kinda like what she
did, go figure,

I didn't really have an opinion when I was younger. I didn't realise Amy
married Laurie for a really long time, for some reason, and when I did, I
was all for the idea. I *really* liked Jo & Laurie as friends, and in a
way, I think I'd have been disappointed if they had gotten married, I don't
think they'd be a good match. I also have a thing for bookish men, so I was
always very pleased that Jo found someone as compatible as Professor Bhaer
(sp?). Of course, I always identified with Jo...our names being very
similar (I'm often called Jo and answer to Jo or Joanne :).

Slightly off track...speaking of awful (IMO) casting choices, I never
understood the casting of Winona Ryder as Jo, but I'm not a fan of hers.

Joanne.
