A movie adaptation based on the first book of Louisa May Alcott , author of Little Women , the story follows the life of Edith Felon, a privileged Orphan who is a paid companion to the daughter of an aristocratic family . Her interaction with the elite social circle puts her in an enviable position and she encounters extreme jealousy and brutal back stabbing . Things get trickier when a handsome noble aristocrat falls in love with her . Time and again , they are reminded of their social circles and are constantly mocked and ridiculed. But the couple have lofty ideals , and make lot of sacrifices and selfless acts to cross the hurdles . Eventually things work out for them. It is an old fashioned fairy tale romance, the characters are way too idealistic. The story is no where comparable to Little Women . But considering that the author wrote it when she was 17 and this is the book which Jo is supposed to be writing in Little Women, it deserves it’s credits . Watch it for the sake of Jo March and Louisa May Alcott. It’s a simple romance! With a handsome lead pair , beautiful settings and lavish costumes. the movie is a visual treat !
