Devlopement
Originally, Gillian Armstrong wasn't on board with directing Little Women. She rejected the offer several times due to the similarities between Little Women and her previous film, My Brilliant Career. However, with persuasion from the Denise DiNovi and Amy Pascal (producers), Armstrong came to realize that the two films were different after all. With the help of screenwriter, Robin Swicord, they aimed to portray more mature themes than the previous adaptations— such as, family, growing up, and progressive feminism.

Filming
The 1994 adaptation of Little Women was filmed primarily in parts of Canada, such as, British Columbia, and Vancouver. However, certain scenes were shot in The United States throughout Massachusetts. The overall film aesthetic for the 1994 Little Women, was heavily influenced by photographs, paintings, and drawings. Armstrong and her team sought inspiration from artwork that was created during the Civil War Era, when Little Women was written. They used these works of art as guidelines for the sets, costumes, color coordination, and even camera lighting. Gillian Armstrong was adamant about creating a look that remained faithful to Little Women's time period.
