ThiefHott Too much of everything

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

edwagreen Megan Follows gives a superb performance in the title role. She is ably supported by Colleen Dewhurst, who once again proves what an under-rated actress she was.Miss Follows is simply perfect as the orphaned Anne, a free spirit with tremendous intelligence and understanding of life, way beyond her age. Of course, there are comic overtones here as Anne gets into one predicament after another. She almost reminds me of a character in Roz Russell's "The Trouble With Angels."The movie really depicts middle-aged women as cruel, uncaring individuals.While he may have been miscast, Richard Farnsworth gives a somber performance as the low-key brother of Dewhurst, whose kindness is forever remembered.The scenery is absolutely breathtaking.Megan Follows gets it so right as she matures into a beautifully played woman.The story is so good because it depicts how a girl can overcome adversity. Anne was brilliant from day one, she has such instinct, ambition, and time after time, she certainly proves her mettle to overcome the misfortunes in life.

anniehutch I just recently watched this movie again and all I have to say is this is an amazing movie. I remember watching it on TV when I was younger and I feel in love right then and there! Megan Follows is a very, very convincing Anne. Now when I read the books I picture her. I watch this movie at least once every three or four months just to be inspired. It's heart warming and a wonderful movie for children and adults alike. This movie makes you feel like you're there with her experiencing everything with her and growing up along side of her. The locations are breathtaking. The acting is wonderful. The theme is timeless. The movie all in all is fabulous. I never get tired of watching it.

pippinmaniac I was about 12 years old when I found L. M. Montgomery's novel, "Anne of Green Gables" at a small community library. I was immediately taken by orphan Anne Shirley and her various misadventures, and grew to love all the characters of Avonlea. Prince Edward Island went to the top of my list of places to visit in the future. Anne was a girl with character-not a put-upon girl who was afraid to speak up for herself. That was a refreshing change from many books aimed at young ladies "back in the day". I have to say that this show was wonderful to see. Megan Followes "was" Anne. Colleen Dewhurst "was" the crusty but lovable Marilla. My favorite was Richard Farnsworth's portrayal of Matthew, the shy, sweet bachelor brother of Marilla. For those who aren't familiar with the story, Matthew and Marilla decide to adopt an orphan boy to help Matthew around the farm. The orphanage makes a mistake and sends Anne. Matthew doesn't have the heart to send her back, so they travel on to Green Gables, Matthew and Marilla's house. Needless to say, Marilla is not amused, but Anne eventually wins her heart. With a temper as fiery as her hair, and a quick mind and huge vocabulary, Anne quickly makes a friend of Diana Barry and catches the eye of Gilbert Blythe. Anne's adventures made for great reading. I am happy to say that this production catches the spirit of the story beautifully. I cried just as hard at the end of this movie as I did at the end of the book when Matthew died. Another 10 from me!
