The joys and sorrows of the March family during the Civil War era.
The March sisters — Meg (Janet Leigh), Jo (June Allyson), Amy (Elizabeth Taylor), and Beth (Margaret O'Brien) — live with their mother in a state of genteel poverty. While their father serves in the Union Army, Mrs. March (Mary Astor) holds the family together and teaches the girls the importance of giving to those less fortunate than themselves. Jo strikes up a friendship with Theodore "Laurie" Laurence, the grandson of the March's wealthy, but cantankerous neighbor, who invites the March sisters to a fancy dress ball at his sumptuous home
