- Yes, she wants me to work on my art
- and my French, of course.
- 1388
- 01:35:34,280 --> 01:35:36,431
- You don't really like
- French though, do you?
- 1389
- 01:35:39,120 --> 01:35:40,554
- That's wonderful, Amy.
- 1390
- 01:35:43,040 --> 01:35:45,350
- Father! I'm going to Europe!
- 1391

- [âªâªâª]

- Meg married.

- Amy off to Europe.
- 1394
- 01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:23,993
- And now that you're a graduate,
- you'll be off on a long holiday.
- 1395
- 01:36:25,840 --> 01:36:29,038
- I'm just not good like Beth,
- so I'm angry and restless.
- 1396
- 01:36:29,120 --> 01:36:31,794
- You don't have to stay here, Jo.
- 1397
- 01:36:31,880 --> 01:36:34,190
- Why? Should we run off
- and join a pirate ship?
- 1398
- 01:36:40,360 --> 01:36:42,431
- - No. No.
- - It's no use, Jo.
- 1399
- 01:36:42,520 --> 01:36:43,800
- - Don't.
- - We got to have it out.
- 1400
- 01:36:43,880 --> 01:36:44,950
- - No.
- - I have loved you
- 1401
- 01:36:45,040 --> 01:36:47,475
- ever since I've known you, Jo.
- I couldn't help it.
- 1402
- 01:36:47,560 --> 01:36:49,950
- - I tried to show and you wouldn't let me.
- - No.
- 1403
- 01:36:50,080 --> 01:36:54,472
- But I must make you hear now and give me
- an answer because I cannot go on like this!
- 1404
- 01:36:54,560 --> 01:36:56,119
- - Please don't.
- - I gave up billiards.
- 1405
- 01:36:56,200 --> 01:36:58,476
- I gave up everything you didn't like.
- I'm happy I did.
- 1406
- 01:36:58,560 --> 01:37:02,110
- It's fine, and I waited,
- and I never complained because I...
- 1407
- 01:37:03,560 --> 01:37:05,836
- You know, I figured
- you'd love me, Jo.
- 1408
- 01:37:06,960 --> 01:37:08,997
- And I realize I'm not
- half good enough
- 1409
- 01:37:09,080 --> 01:37:11,231
- - and I'm not this great man...
- - No! Yes, you are.
- 1410
- 01:37:11,320 --> 01:37:12,959
- You're a great deal
- too good for me.
- 1411
- 01:37:13,040 --> 01:37:16,920
- And I'm so grateful to you,
- and I'm so proud of you, and I just...
- 1412
- 01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:20,118
- I don't see why I can't love you
- as you want me to.
- 1413
- 01:37:20,200 --> 01:37:21,395
- I don't know why.
- 1414
- 01:37:22,280 --> 01:37:23,350
- You can't?
- 1415
- 01:37:23,480 --> 01:37:25,676
- No. I can't.
- 1416
- 01:37:25,760 --> 01:37:27,911
- I can't change how I feel, and...
- 1417
- 01:37:29,840 --> 01:37:32,400
- it would be a lie to say
- I do when I don't.
- 1418
- 01:37:33,800 --> 01:37:35,234
- I'm so sorry, Teddy.
- 1419
- 01:37:36,280 --> 01:37:39,079
- I'm so sorry,
- but I just can't help it.
- 1420
- 01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:41,595
- I can't love anyone else, Jo.
- I only love you.
- 1421
- 01:37:41,680 --> 01:37:43,273
- It would be a disaster
- if we married.
- 1422
- 01:37:43,360 --> 01:37:45,158
- - It wouldn't be.
- - We'd be miserable.
- 1423
- 01:37:45,240 --> 01:37:47,232
- - Jo, I'd be a perfect saint.
- - I can't! I can't!
- 1424
- 01:37:47,320 --> 01:37:50,096
- - I've tried it and I failed. I can't.
- - Why does everyone expect it, then?
- 1425
- 01:37:50,120 --> 01:37:54,194
- Why does your family and my grandpa expect it?
- Why are you saying this? Say yes.
- 1426
- 01:37:54,320 --> 01:37:59,236
- - Let's be happy together, Jo!
- - I can't say yes truly, so I'm not going to say it at all.
- 1427
- 01:37:59,320 --> 01:38:01,630
- You'll see that I'm right eventually,
- 1428
- 01:38:01,720 --> 01:38:03,313
- and you'll thank me for it.
- 1429
- 01:38:07,640 --> 01:38:09,552
- I'd rather hang myself
- than realize this, Jo.
- 1430
- 01:38:09,640 --> 01:38:11,518
- - Teddy.
- - I would rather be dead.
- 1431
- 01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:13,434
- Teddy, don't say that.
- 1432
- 01:38:14,560 --> 01:38:15,560
- Teddy.
- 1433
- 01:38:17,240 --> 01:38:21,234
- Listen, you'll find some lovely,
- accomplished girl
- 1434
- 01:38:21,320 --> 01:38:23,994
- who will love you
- and adore you,
- 1435
- 01:38:24,080 --> 01:38:27,756
- and she's gonna make a fine mistress
- for your fine house, but I wouldn't.
- 1436
- 01:38:27,880 --> 01:38:29,280
- - Yes, you would, Jo.
- - Look at me.
- 1437
- 01:38:29,360 --> 01:38:32,319
- - I'm homely, and I'm awkward, and I'm odd.
- - I love you, Jo.
- 1438
- 01:38:32,400 --> 01:38:34,471
- - And you'd be ashamed of me.
- - I love you, Jo.
- 1439
- 01:38:34,560 --> 01:38:37,359
- And we would quarrel
- because we can't help it even now.
- 1440
- 01:38:40,120 --> 01:38:44,751
- I'd hate elegant society, you'd hate
- my scribbling, and we would be unhappy.
- 1441
- 01:38:44,840 --> 01:38:47,753
- And we'd wish we hadn't done it,
- and everything will be horrid.
- 1442
- 01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:52,280
- Is there anything more?
- 1443
- 01:38:53,600 --> 01:38:55,319
- - No, nothing more.
- - All right.
- 1444
- 01:38:56,320 --> 01:38:57,320
- Except that...
- 1445
- 01:39:01,720 --> 01:39:04,155
- Teddy, I don't believe
- I will ever marry.
- 1446
- 01:39:05,480 --> 01:39:07,199
- I'm happy as I am,
- 1447
- 01:39:07,280 --> 01:39:10,079
- and I love my liberty too well
- to be in any hurry to give it up.
- 1448
- 01:39:10,160 --> 01:39:11,594
- - I think you're wrong, Jo.
- - No.
- 1449
- 01:39:11,680 --> 01:39:14,434
- I think you will marry.
- I think you'll find someone and love them.
- 1450
- 01:39:14,520 --> 01:39:17,558
- And you will live and die for them
- because that's your way, and you will.
- 1451
- 01:39:21,120 --> 01:39:22,315
- And I'll watch.

- It didn't save her.
- 1456
- 01:40:26,320 --> 01:40:28,357
- You're much too lonely here, Jo.
- 1457
- 01:40:30,240 --> 01:40:34,678
- Wouldn't you like to go back to New York?
- What about your friend Friedrich?
- 1458
- 01:40:34,760 --> 01:40:36,194
- - Wasn't that his name?
- - No.
- 1459
- 01:40:37,920 --> 01:40:41,755
- I ruined our friendship with my temper,
- just as I ruin everything.
- 1460
- 01:40:41,840 --> 01:40:43,274
- I'm sure I'll never see him again.
- 1461
- 01:40:43,360 --> 01:40:46,194
- I doubt that a sincere friend
- would be deterred.
- 1462
- 01:40:48,520 --> 01:40:49,840
- I wish that were true.
- 1463
- 01:40:53,560 --> 01:40:56,678
- If I was a girl in a book,
- this would all be so easy.
- 1464

- Just give up the world happily.

- - Oh, he is?
- - Mm.
- 1467

- There was a letter from Amy.
- She's coming home.
- 1468
- 01:41:12,360 --> 01:41:15,239
- She's devastated about Beth.
- 1469
- 01:41:15,320 --> 01:41:19,439
- Aunt March is very ill,
- so Laurie will accompany them.

- - Mm.

- - What is it?
- - I don't know.
- 1472

- I've always been quite content
- with my family.
- 1473

- Don't understand it.
- 1474

- Perhaps...
- 1475
- 01:41:42,720 --> 01:41:45,189
- Perhaps I...
- 1476
- 01:41:45,280 --> 01:41:47,590
- was too quick in turning him down.

- 01:41:48,840 --> 01:41:49,840
- Laurie.
- 1478
- 01:41:52,400 --> 01:41:53,675
- Do you love him?
- 1479
- 01:41:57,440 --> 01:42:00,160
- If he asked me again,
- I think I would say yes.
- 1480
- 01:42:01,520 --> 01:42:03,079
- Do you think he'll ask me again?
- 1481
- 01:42:04,240 --> 01:42:05,640
- But do you love him?
- 1482
- 01:42:07,760 --> 01:42:09,831
- I care more to be loved.
- 1483
- 01:42:10,800 --> 01:42:12,075
- I want to be loved.
- 1484
- 01:42:13,160 --> 01:42:15,516
- That is not the same as loving.
- 1485
- 01:42:19,960 --> 01:42:20,960
- I know.

- women, they...

- They have minds and they have souls,
- as well as just hearts.

- And they've got ambition and they've got talent,
- as well as just beauty.
- 1491
- 01:42:42,320 --> 01:42:47,520
- And I'm so sick of people saying
