LITTLE WOMEN 
The Best family movie of the years!

Time: 2:00-4:00pm, Friday, October 6, 2006
Venue: 3rd Floor, Rose Garden Tower, 170 Ngoc Khanh Street, Hanoi

Winona Ryder (in an Oscar-nominated role) and Academy-winner Susan Sarandon (1995 Best Actress, Dead Man Walking) star in this “affectionate, superbly acted” (Los Angeles Times) family favorite. With her husband off at war, Marmee (Saradon) is left alone to raise their four daughters – her “little women.” There is the spirited Jo (Ryder); conservative Meg(Trini Alvarado, Paulie); fragile Beth (Claire Danes, William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet); and romantic Amy (played at different ages by Kirsten Dunst [Wag the Dog] and Samantha Mathis [Broken Arrow]). As the years pass, the sisters share some of the most cherished and painful memories of  self-discovery, as Marmee and Aunt March (Mary Wickes, The Man Who Came to dinner) guide them though issues of independence, romance and virtue. Gabriel Byrne (End of Days), Eric Stoltz (TV’s “Chicago Hope”) and Christian Bale (The Portrait of a Lady) co-star in this “handcrafted valentine” (Newsweek) of a film.
