Little Women

Laurie (who was in love with Jo) ends up marrying Amy, Meg has twins with John Brooke (Laurie's old tutor), and tomboy Jo, who swore she'd never be a wife, marries Professor Baehr. And Beth dies.

Lauren

Continuity mistake: When Laurie sees Amy painting in Europe, in his closeup he takes the cigarette out of his mouth and throws it on the ground. But in the next shot, with Amy in the foreground, as Laurie is walking towards her in the background, notice how he, once again, removes the cigarette from his mouth and throws it on the ground.

Trivia: In reality the girls' father, Amos Bronson Alcott, was never in the war nor wounded. However, Jo (Louisa May Alcott, the author of Little Women) was a nurse in Washington D.C. in 1862 and when she fell ill it was her father who had to go to Washington to get her.
