Little Women (2019) v. Book: the Timelines

I knew before seeing Little Women (2019) that it was going to have a start in the middle approach, something like Jane Eyre (2011) did. Writer/Director Greta Gerwig said (in “A New Generation of Little Women”, the first special feature on the dvd) that she wanted to feature the characters as adults, that in the second part of the book, the chapters are "the adult answer to what happened in childhood", and the film flashes back and forth to line up the storylines, although in this interview, at 1:50 she describes it as two timelines that are both moving forward.

When is Little Women set?

Published 1868 (Book/Part 1, Chapters 1-23) & 1869 (Book/Part 2, Chapters 24-47)

Civil War took place April 12, 1861 – May 9, 1865

Here's a proposed book timeline for the whole series concerning the Marches.

For my book to movie comparison I watched the dvd with subtitles, and text searched lines in the Ebook on Project Gutenberg. You can also search the text in Apple Books and Kindle (and I assume whatever other ebook formats exist) which also have free editions.

I did not make notes of where changes to character or plot were made, just tracking the movie timelines in comparison to book timeline

Timeline 1 (because that's where the film starts) is the later years (Book Part 2)

Timeline 2 is the earlier years (mostly Book Part 1, but towards the ends it catches up with the beginning of Timeline 1, including content from Book Part 2)

Movie: the dvd "scenes" seem to cut in the middle of story scenes, so I've tried to indicate where there's overlap

Timeline 1: Book Part 2 - Chapters 34, 33 Jo
