Movie Reviews of Anne of Green Gables
Movie Review: How did this movie sneak past the PC censors at PBS?
Summary: 5 Stars
How in heaven's name did Anne of Green Gables ever make it through the politically-correct censors at PBS? It's not anti-Protestant, anti-Catholic, anti-family, anti-marriage, anti-motherhood, anti-heterosexual, or anti-Anglo Saxon, which is what you'll see the 364 other days a year on your local PBS station.
I'll tell you how. They couldn't ignore the quality of this first-rate production. And after those at PBS realized (probably to their great cynical chagrin) how beloved this show would become, they only showed it during their pledge weeks. And - guess what? - the money poured into their Grinch-like hands.
If that isn't reason enough to buy this DVD, then there's no convincing you because no greater reason exists. Who would rather sit through a mindless PBS pledge break if he or she could avoid it by owning, arguably, the best made-for-TV movie ever produced?
Movie Review: heartwarming, delightful film
Summary: 5 Stars
I've loved this series since I was 12 years old and my English teacher started showing us bits of the movies as Friday "treats". Anne is simply wonderful. Her continuous habit of getting into scrapes, Gilbert's heart-sick love and the remarkable supporting characters join together to make this movie a permanent favorite. Kevin Sullivan could not have found more perfect actors to fill these roles. The script is beautifully adapted from the novel, and the sweeping landscape scenes add a delicious backdrop to this timeless tale. You'll laugh, cry, sigh and squee! all before it's over. A fantastic movie that entertains while showcasing a simpler way of life. Make sure to get the sequel. All of the actors return. Anne is a bit older but still getting into scrapes, and Gilbert is more romantic than ever. I still can't decide which movie is better. Make it a marathon and watch both!Movie Review: DVD quality *not* poor
Summary: 5 Stars
I had rented this film on VHS several years ago, and decided to buy it despite the several reviews here that complained about the quality of the DVD transfer. I'm very happy to report first that to my eyes the quality of the picture is very good indeed; I'm not an expert but the limitations seem to be in the original print and not in the mastering; indeed, there are to my eye very few compression artifacts to be seen. In particular, the wonderful colors of Prince Edward Island shine out beautifully. Second, while there is no chapter menu, there are chapters. My only objection to the DVD as a DVD is that it's a flipper--but hey, so's "Schindler's List"! This is a DVD worthy of the film, and for three and a half hours of such a wonderful film, the price is not, I think, too steep.Movie Review: The Cutest of Movies
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is so wonderful I love the characters they picked to play each of the characters. This is the best movie out of the trilogy the sequel being the second best because both follow the book. This movie had all of my family in tears at certain points and Gilbert Blithe was a definite favorite for us. The scenery is breathtaking and the way the love story plays out is very cute. I would highly recommend this movie as it is a very enrapturing movie filled with the simple, beautiful things in life. And how Anne " with an E " touches the hearts of so many people is so beautiful. It made me want to move to Prince Edward Island tomorrow to live somewhere like Green Gables. Anne of Green Gables has become one of my favorite movies as it sings to the heart of the hopeless romantic.Movie Review: Totalement Satisfaite
