jo and laurie | falling

[@scrappymitchell]

little disclaimer: hey lovely kids just wanna say this isn't one of those edits where I am trying to make jo and laurie look more *epic* than laurie and amy etc. in fact this is me just appreciating the journey they go on because it's one of my favourite elements on the film, including the fact that they don't end up together, I just love the impact they had on each other and the growth they brought in one another, if I (and louisa may alcott herself) got it my way jo wouldn't have ended up with anyone! I value every opinion on here because as of right now they are respectful and polite, but please guys settle the debate down on what this edit is because it's actually not meant to be about me wanting them together in the end but just loving their relationship as *almost lovers* to lifelong friend-soulmates :) stay safe everyone!

They would have killed each other, Laurie was never really hers from the beginning, she did love him but she wasn’t in love with him. They would have not worked at all, and this is coming from someone who loves both Jo & Laurie and Amy & Laurie.

[@boudouroubou9790]

When Jo writes her love letter to Laurie she says “My dear teddy, I miss you more than I can express. I used to think that the worst fate was to be a wife, I was young and stupid. But now I have changed. The worst fate is to live my life without you in it.” I think Jo finds it hard to express her feelings without going against her believes/ideas about what women should and shouldn’t be in the world. Like when Jo tells her sister Meg that she doesn’t need to get married to John and that she will get bored after 2 years. Later on Jo telling her mum that she is sick of women having their only purpose of to love. Jo realised that women are more than that. To all the people saying Jo felt ‘lonely’ and needed to fill a void that’s why she confesses to Laurie her love that was not the reason. When Jo left to go to New York she left her sisters behind. And when her sister Beth got sick she came back in a heart beat. Stopping everything that she was doing her dreams and ambition for her sister. When her sister Amy burned her papers Jo got angry at Amy and even said she will never ever forgive her and then when her sister nearly drowned she went back to talking to her in a heart beat realising that her sister was more important. Similarly as soon as she rejects Laurie she kept writing to him but he was the one that was not answering to her letters. Jo truly did care for him. She just didn’t have herself figured out yet. Jo thought a women cannot marry and pursue her dreams at the same time in the end she realises she can when she marries the professor. She realises this before however and wanted to tell Laurie by confessing to him through the letter but it was to late. Jo wanted it to be Laurie that she marries. Jo even admitted to her mum that when she gets angry her anger can blind her. Like when she rejected Laurie because of her anger blinding her to thinking women should be independent and never married, but she doesn’t realise women can be both. Jo is a strong willed character who refuses to back down but then she does on all of these occasions she does it for the people that she loves. She did that when she rejected Laurie. She was angry because she had dreams she wanted to pursue and marriage was not on her radar back then. However after loosing her sister for good this time she realises the mistake she made rejecting Laurie. She realises death is her worse enemy and it can come in the way of things even when she thinks she is in control. She steers the wheel of her life, she is independent, unmarried, in New York writing doing everything she ever wanted but death still has a way of ruining things. When she comes to this realisation she cannot bear to loose Laurie in the same way without telling him how she truly feels. Because Jo finally realises that the love she holds for him is greater than whatever it is she wanted to do as a single women.

[@joseffpaz9753]

from a far i can agree, but when you dive into the themes and context of the story, you have to understand that they are not a match. jo represents the freedom of a woman tofollow their dreams as she tackles gender conformity. if she were to end up with laurie, she would have been subjected to the roles she has been resisting her whole life. she would have been his wife, his property. she and professor share intellectual interests which is best for jo. she doesnt care about looks or age. professor better suits her needs and wants.

[@emine3318]

I can genuinely understand Jo. She was just so young to know the difference between being needed a man and loving a man. She was strong enough to stand on her own feet. That's why she didn't let Laurie to get in her life. Then she learned, in a hard way, loving someone doesn't make us weak. This pain changed her mind but It was too late to catch up with Laurie's love...

[@debaranjanbharali2164]

No they were platonic soulmates she even says that she just wanted to feel the void of love that she didn’t have and Laurie states the love I feel for Amy it’s different which means it’s romantic he just dint realize in the past because jo is the first women he ever met and jo was hanging on to the past a time where her writing was thriving her family was strong and she had her best friend but Beth dies meg has her family and Amy was in Europe and jo didn’t have any happiness left and thank god Laurie didn’t get her letter because if he went running to her and they married she wouldn’t have worked on her book and Laurie wouldn’t be loved right

I think they were soulmates but not in a romantic way, Jo never loved him enough, she herself couldn’t say that she loved him, she just didn’t wanna be alone, she loved him but not the way he wanted (like a lover) but more like a best friend. In the end Amy was best for him because she truly loved him like Laurie loved her, with Jo its was gonna be an unrequited love, and Amy changed him for good, Joe brought up the child in Laurie but Amy brought the man inside him, that’s why they were perfect for each other despite everything 💕

No on can tell me that they don’t belong together because they obviously loved each other and Laurie will never love Amy like he loved Jo!!

[@freedamusix5738]

I think that she tried very hard to love Laurie the same way he loved her but she simply couldn't. She didn't push him to be better and hated the society that Laurie would always be a part of. Laurie, though he loved Joe ver much, didn't push her to be better and did not appreciate her love of writing. At the end, Joe was willing to give in to Laurie's love not because she finally could reciprocate, but because she was lonely. She was so lonely after almost loosing her best friend, loosing her beloved sister, and being away from those that loved her that was willing to lower her standards and give in to a life she would not enjoy to stop feeling that way. In conclusion, their love was one of true friendship, and could never be more.

[@cherylvillamor612]

This. Although Amy was actually was a good character, Jo really made lots of sacrifices for her family that we cannot discount. When her Dad was sick, Jo sold her hair, the only thing that she and people felt was good in her physical appearance then, to help her ailing father. When Beth was near dying Jo stayed beside her family, while Amy was having a great time with Laurie abroad. Jo shouldered the responsibility of taking care of her mother and father while still grieving, while Amy was away. When Jo wanted that trip to France badly, it was given to Amy. It's just so bad for me. But yeah, maybe Amy only said that because it was rather late that Laurie saw her beyond the brotherly eye.

Well I mean it’s not negativity just trying to explain that Laurie and jo had a beautiful relationship but it was platonic when her mom ask fo u love him she couldn’t bring her self to say it because it wasn’t true she wanted things to be the same as they were in the past a past where she was happy and her writing and family were thriving but meg got married Beth got sick and Amy went to Europe now the edit was beautiful and they had a beautiful relationship but they shouldn’t have been together when he says the love I feel for Amy is different he means different as in romantic but he’s always gonna love jo as a best friend

[@elizabethcuevas3728]

justanotherpersonxo what do you mean when her mom ask do you love him she couldn’t say it because she didn’t she just wanted somethings from the past and to not be lonely she wanted things to stay the same throughout the whole movie but meg got married Beth got sick and Amy left and her writing wasn’t going well she just wanted something to feel the void of loneliness and sadness

[@katelynlopez1432]

In the book it explained that Laurie wanted to write a play, and he wanted jo to be the heroine, but it said that he couldn’t have any detailed thoughts about her. His love for her had faded, he could only think of amy. I also feel like he knew he wanted to grow old and spend his life with jo, but really not as a husband, as a friend. They are too much alike each other to be great with each other

[@claraju9756]

It’s a different kind of love he feels for Amy. He stopped looking at her as a little girl, he discovered all the good things in her and falled for them. The love between Laurie and Amy is more realistic and mature. So it doesn’t really matter if he feels more or less for one or the other I think, cause it’s just different

[@noone-kv7yc]

Not "as much", but he will never love amy the same way he loved Jo.

I just noticed that in their childhood Laurie also wears the red/dark blue of Jo’s color palette a lot. Shows that she is a huge part of himself, besides from the constant swapping of vests. But in the end when Laurie is with Amy his own clothes are lighter gray/light blue, Amy’s color palette.

Dr Phil Is My Father ____ FACTS

[@no.1garlicbreadenthusiast]

I think he fell in love with the woman Amy had turned into. When Laurie was younger Amy was mostly just a little girl with a crush that fawned over him but as a woman she didn't take he's shit (ie. him showing up late to the party drunk after making her wait for him & the 'marriage is different for you then it is for me so don't judge me' scene). Yes she was beautiful but she was also artistic, honest (it took guts to so openly admit to her insecruities about being just a replacement for Jo & let him know that if that was what he was trying to do then she would have no part in it) smart, cared a lot for her family (she was planning to marry a man she didn't love just to help financially support her family) & a good person (she didn't marry Fredric in the end because she knew it wouldn't be fair to either of them to be in a relationship with someone she didn't really love).

[@Shreya-yx1re]

I believe Jo did love Laurie. She just struggled with the idea of getting married and being in love. That's why her character was complicated and different. She firmly believed in staying single because love or marriage isn't the only happy ending a woman deserves. She turned down the love of her life to stand by her beliefs. Later, she realizes it's okay to be in love. She embraces her feelings for Laurie, but by then it was too late.

[@teetash9572]

When Jo says " But I'm so lonely" that clearly states that she wasn't in love with Teddy, she cared for him, she felt good and peaceful with him but couldn't love him, and I guess most of us are selfish we mistake this feeling of being empty and wanting someone,who love(d) you, back and name it love. Jo didn't, she wasn't selfish. And at the same time I feel so sorry for Amy, because I still don't understand if Laurie really loved Amy , I mean I know he loves her, but was it more than his love for Jo? And yet again idk if he really loved Jo or not , or was it a result of feeling good with her...

[@boudouroubou9790]

When Jo writes her love letter to Laurie she says “My dear teddy, I miss you more than I can express. I used to think that the worst fate was to be a wife, I was young and stupid. But now I have changed. The worst fate is to live my life without you in it.” I think Jo finds it hard to express her feelings without going against her believes/ideas about what women should and shouldn’t be in the world. Like when Jo tells her sister Meg that she doesn’t need to get married to John and that she will get bored after 2 years. Later on Jo telling her mum that she is sick of women having their only purpose of to love. Jo realised that women are more than that. To all the people saying Jo felt ‘lonely’ and needed to fill a void that’s why she confesses to Laurie her love that was not the reason. When Jo left to go to New York she left her sisters behind. And when her sister Beth got sick she came back in a heart beat. Stopping everything that she was doing her dreams and ambition for her sister. When her sister Amy burned her papers Jo got angry at Amy and even said she will never ever forgive her and then when her sister nearly drowned she went back to talking to her in a heart beat realising that her sister was more important. Similarly as soon as she rejects Laurie she kept writing to him but he was the one that was not answering to her letters. Jo truly did care for him. She just didn’t have herself figured out yet. Jo thought a women cannot marry and pursue her dreams at the same time in the end she realises she can when she marries the professor. She realises this before however and wanted to tell Laurie by confessing to him through the letter but it was to late. Jo wanted it to be Laurie that she marries. Jo even admitted to her mum that when she gets angry her anger can blind her. Like when she rejected Laurie because of her anger blinding her to thinking women should be independent and never married, but she doesn’t realise women can be both. Jo is a strong willed character who refuses to back down but then she does on all of these occasions she does it for the people that she loves. She did that when she rejected Laurie. She was angry because she had dreams she wanted to pursue and marriage was not on her radar back then. However after loosing her sister for good this time she realises the mistake she made rejecting Laurie. She realises death is her worse enemy and it can come in the way of things even when she thinks she is in control. She steers the wheel of her life, she is independent, unmarried, in New York writing doing everything she ever wanted but death still has a way of ruining things. When she comes to this realisation she cannot bear to loose Laurie in the same way without telling him how she truly feels. Because Jo finally realises that the love she holds for him is greater than whatever it is she wanted to do as a single women.

[@malloryowen8467]

I dunno, I feel like jo and laurie have always and will always love each other in unique way, albiet not a romantic way. For their whole childhood, Laurie expected and wanted it to be romantic, but I think for Jo it never was. In the scene where she's regretting rejecting Laurie, it clearly comes form a place of wanting to be loved, and she feels terrible for hurting Laurie. Not because her love for Laurie is romantic. As for her letter, it's true: she does want to have him in her life. She also wants to mend things between them and not cause him any more pain as she does truly love him like a brother. But I still think even as she wishes she didn't reject him, it's not from a romantic love. And perhaps after that rejection, Laurie needed the space to find out who he was apart from Jo. Maybe he realized Amy is who he truly needed all along. Maybe his love for her wasn't childish like it was with Jo, maybe it was more mature as he got to know the grown up version of Amy, who was not the little girl she had been. I dunno, I don't rly like their relationship at all, but I think (or hope lol) that the love between Amy and Laurie is more husband-wife love. Meanwhile, Jo and Laurie's bond is deep and strong.

[@222vibe]

No entendiste

[@Ahgajsja]

Jo is strong willed, independent, never gave up on her dreams and always cared deeply for her family. Laurie is jealous in the end asking about Friedrich, he clearly has a soft spot for her. And we never got to see what would Laurie do after he got the letter so i honestly believe he still loved her, as just few weeks before he proposed to Amy, Laurie talked about Jo's ring that he was still wearing to Amy. He couldn't have fell in love with Amy just after some weeks after wearing that ring for a long time. I honestly believe he married Amy just to see Jo often as he realised he wouldn't get Jo.

I actually feel for Jo when she said she's not ready to give up her liberty, when you're young and full of energy and dreams its just so hard to let "love" (romantic one) to get in because you're scared that it might ruin everything but also you're fierce enough since you're still young and dreaming to think that it wont really matter as long as you are doing what it is that you are passionate about you'll be fine...

[@sophialocquiao2300]

jo herself said that she couldn't love him. she only regretted not saying yes to his proposal because she was lonely and she deeply wanted to be loved. she knew she couldn't love laurie the way laurie loved her, and saying no was fit for the both of them. they had the best connection in the whole movie, but it seemed as if jo loved him as a companion. they were goofy with each other, but it was time for laurie to grow up, and amy helped him with that. amy and laurie belong together because they helped each other become a better person. jo and laurie were merely just comfortable with each other, they wouldn't have gotten anything out of a marriage.

[@ladymire]

it is truly sad knowing that they probably wouldn’t have worked out anyways, just like jo said. they’re so different from each other. in makes sense that, with the way jo is so different from amy, and laurie so different from jo, amy and laurie had been a perfect match: they were both content with the role they each had in society: amy as a woman (with no real future but simply as a wife with no freedom), laurie as a rich, basic white man. jo was something else, and she deserved better. however, that doesn’t mean the story between these two doesn’t hurt.

[@iamsamdearie]

I see people commenting things like: “she never loved him, she just wanted to keep him around as emotional support (essentially)”. I disagree with this assessment. She always loved him, she just never knew it. True, Laurie made his move when she wasn’t ready, but she still loved him. She just couldn’t admit it. Now, that being said, the palpable loneliness in the “I care more to be loved” scene seems to actually shoot down my entire argument… but wait. She said in her letter that she couldn’t imagine a life without him… I think she meant that. She just didn’t understand what it really meant to be in love. Aside from that, the heartbreak can be seen straight into her soul when Laurie says he married Amy. This leads me to my conclusion: She loved him. With all her heart. She just didn’t know what love was. When she found out, it was too late🥺

[@kgsunshine]

Thank you, thank you, thank you for understanding this! She ABSOLUTELY loved him with all of her heart. They think bc she said "I can't love you the way you want me to" means she doesn't love him. She literally just said she did! She just cldn't give him at the time what he was looking for - a wife. She was scared & confused. And who wldnt if they equated marriage to shackles & property?
