It's time for a re-watch of this magnificent new classic, Greta Gerwig's Little Women where James Norton plays an endearing John Brooke alongside Emma Watson as Meg March.
“My role in the film, and off camera, was to sort of pay witness to these extraordinary female artists - Greta Gerwig, Meryl Streep, Laura Dern - it was insane and it was the guy's turn to pay tribute to them and witness their brilliance. So I spent a lot of my scenes there standing in the background, not really having any lines, and I couldn't quite believe how I'd ended up there. For me, that was a huge jump to be amongst those actors, with Greta directing, and also I think it was only during the time of filming I was made aware of how special that book is and of the responsibility that we had. ” – James Norton interviewed by Bryan Adams for Zoo Magazine December 2020
