jo and laurie • the 1

this has truly just become a taylor swift edit channel hasn't it

film: little women
song: the 1 by taylor swift

[jeenalagrawal]

when the lyric goes “you know the greatest films of all time were never made” and it shows JO AND LAURIE🥺

[paulinagonzalez]

The moment the lyrics say “I has this dream you’re doing cool shit” and Amy appears HURT

[nisstomeetya]

omg :(( ugh each scene fit the lyrics. love the "it's another day waking up alone" especially.

[sayantanikar]

"I persist and resist the temptation to ask you if one thing had been different would everything be different today?" That line is written for them. Change My Mind ❤️

[crystaltibayan]

"I think you'll marry. You'll find someone and love them. You will live and die for them. That's your way, and you will... And I'll watch." funny how Laurie said this, but Jo ended up doing so.😭💔

[e.j.p]

you've never been wrong a day in your life

[IDEALFRY]

"In my defense, I have none" totally matching Jo's immediate regret of turning down Laurie's proposal and her many silly reasons/excuses for doing so ("I don't why I can't love you the way you want me to"/ "I don't think I will ever marry to anyone"/ "We will always disagree with one another"/ "You wouldn't want to marry me because I am awkward, I'm not proper"/ "I value my liberty too much to ever get married")
Both Jo and Laurie were just too young and impulsive to handle the serious next step to their relationship. Jo is too rush to turn Laurie down with her many childish excuses when she has no idea what true love and real heartbreak feels like so how could she know she doesn't love and needed Laurie as much or the same way Laurie does for her? And Laurie is too strong-headed to pressure Jo too hard in his ultimatum way of proposing and later too proud to give Jo time for regretting her decision and give her a 2nd chance to say yes by proposing to Jo again. In the end, they were just too young to correct their misunderstanding and the mis-opportunities.
"It would have been sweet, it could have been me" that's what in Jo's mind when she found out that her soulmate married her little sister.

[MultiTaylorswift]

I feel like Jo marrying the professor was a poor choice and it only happens because of how women characters needed to be written back then.

[cheesie]

In my defense I think Jo could have learned to love Laurie like how Laurie learned to love Amy. It was Amy who told him that love is chosen. Not just something that magically happens. And he learned that he could, all this time, he could love someone who isn't hurting him like Jo did to his heart. And it sucks and I hate it, because in that sense I believe Jo could learn to love him if she chose to. That she would be able to love laurie as laurie learned to love Amy. but she was too late and he had already learned to love someone else. and it breaks my heart. And man my emotions are so invested in this don't mind me

0:32 - 0:42 THAT WAS VERY CRUEL OF YOU OH GOD I'M ABOUT TO CRY

[blymperopoulou]

Amy was such a villain and she still gets away with it.
1. Always jealous of jo, she burned her books out of jealousy and I know she was young but damn I was once twelve too and didn’t burn other peoples hard work.
2. Went with their aunt in France instead of Jo and I know you will say that she didn’t know how heartbroken Jo was over this but SHE LITERALLY SAW HER when she said that she thought that her aunt was supposed to take her in France instead .
3. Met Laurie in France, saw him being extremely heartbroken over her sister and kept on loving him and interfering when it really wasn’t her place to do so.
4. She used him when she knew he was at his worse and got together with him even though he had a relationship like this with her sister - they were always together, best friends, he proposed to her and he was still heart broken over Jo but that literally didn’t stop her.
4. She got married before she could ask her sister about it and she even admitted that she thought she might me angry meaning she knew exactly how painful this would be for her and still did it.
5. The first thing that she said to Laurie was something along the lines of “my sister is getting her books published and I am not a genius”
6. Was she even in love with Laurie or was it just to spite her sister ?
7. We all know damn well that hadn’t she got as involved with him during their stay in France Laurie and Jo would be end game . I am not saying that they would necessarily be a match made in heaven I am just pointing out that had that letter reached him before he married Amy, LUrie and jo would be a couple by the end .
7. She calls me her “lord” ? 🤮
8. LAurie settled for Amy because he was heartbroken from Jo. He still wore her ring for god shake.
9. Imagine having a sister like that ?
10. I know that probably Jo and Laurie wouldn’t be the perfect match but so was LUrie and Amy and so was Jo and the professor . In my humble opinion Laurie rushed his proposal when jo was not yet ready because she thought this would prohibit her from the feminism lifestyle. Your best friend is always the best match for you, they were soulmates and they would have been happier together. Nothing can change my mind .

[gisellycristinabarbosa]

man, this is killing me, it's so fucking sad :C Jo and Laurie deserved much more than that

[daniellamarie]

pls make one of jo & laurie to champagne problems omg it's perfect for them <3

[MaggieZhao]

THIS HIT SO GODDAMN HARD, THE CLIP CHOICE WAS PERFECT

[helnik]

i’m so late to leave comments but this video is the best, the way the lyrics literally match with the scenes, e.g, “it’s another day waking up alone” and the camera pans to the empty bed, and “and if my wishes came true, it would’ve been you” AND THERES LAURIE RIGHT BEFORE HER

[TheGirlie]

The lyrics and images match SO WELL omg this song was made for them brb I’m gonna go cry now

[vaybedumb]

The parallels between Friedrich looking at Jo and Laurie looking at Jo oh my gosh

[siennabiscool]

WHY DID THE WAKING UP ALONE LINE HIT SO

[gigi]

Omg I'm so Jo that it hurts in a way, I think we all wanted this pair to end up together, but I understand so well that I cry when I see the situation he was in, it's a very difficult thing to explain but sometimes it's so hard to have a relationship, not know how to love someone properly and think that maybe he won't love you for who you really are, it is something very strange and somehow inexplicable, but I suffered a lot, whatever...

[iagou]

1:08 THE WAY HE LEANS ON HER, PLSSS IT HURTS SM. I'M NEVER GONNA RECOVER FROM IT
