Yet, in this "woke" era that we live in, I couldn't help but think of how one could interpret this movie. One way to view this film is from the lens of the post/current #metoo movement. Another view that I thought about was the idea of white privilege.
(Note: the following is based on what I saw in the film and doesn't include source material that might provide additional context on the life of the March family.)
The film is set largely among the wealthy. Yes, the March family throughout much of the film is not wealthy, but I would argue the family does come from wealth. Aunt March mentions this to Jo early in the movie. She mentions that she is wealthy and that Jo's father and mother lost their money. (I forget the exact wording used.) This surely implies that Jo's grandparents had been well off and set both Aunt March and Father March off well in life. Now it isn't because Jo's parents lost their money due to gambling, alcohol, and bad investments. It can be argued that the family lost their money doing charity work during the Civil War.
