Little Women

In the middle of the American Civil War, in a Massachusets neighborhood, the March sisters make their way through childhood and come to terms with what the end of it will mean to their relationships. Meg (Watson) is the eldest, a wonderful actor but a very practical woman. Beth (Scanlen) is musically gifted, naive and sickly, the one who always brings the family together. Amy (Pugh) is the youngest, an aspiring painter with an independent and unapologetically ambitious attitude. And then there's Jo (Ronan), the rebellious writer and fierce advocate for women everywhere but especially of her sisters. As time passes, Jo realizes that her attempts to keep the women in her life safe and near might be in vain, and she struggles with the realities of growing up.

Dolittle

Dr. John Dolittle (Downey Jr.) is a world-class veterinarian, and his ability to talk to animals makes him second to none. This changes when his dear wife, Lily (Smutniak), dies due to a sailing accident.

His wallowing doesn't last long, however, as Queen Victoria (Buckley) falls ill and directs Dolittle to search for a cure that exists only in the form of a fruit native to an island far away. With the help of a child named Tommy (Collett), he rushes to accomplish the mission as foes, both human and four-legged, attempt to stop him.
