Everybody talks about how Megan and Jonathan were the PERFECT casting for Anne and Gilbert....but the rest of the cast was perfect, as well. ESPECIALLY for Marilla, Matthew, Ms. Rachel and Diana.
Megan Follows is the ONLY ANNE for me ... PERFECT and so are all the other Fantastic Actors & Actresses' .... every one was just perfect for their role!!! I've watched other versions and they don't come even close to tis production!!!! A HUGE THANK YOU to all the Actors, Actresses', Directors, Producers, Crew ... EVERYONE ..... U all made HISTORY with this Production and made all watch it soooooo HAPPY!!! Sad that some of the actors & actresses have passed away.
45 years later, as Catherine d’Medici, Megan is still perfect & in attitude & smile she hasn’t seemed to age. In Aus, we were SO thrilled to see this, as this book was such a beautiful world. the director brought it perfectly to life.
Watching this TV film as a child made me fall in love with Canada (beautiful country with the nicest people) and the books of L.M. Montgomery. Still haven't visited Prince Edward Island but post Covid, it will happen.
Did you ever get to PEI? I’d love to know and I hope you had the opportunity to do so! ‘Come for lunch and tell all’! Love & Light from Miami Shores🦚 Stay safe mate✌🏼🌎 Have a care for one another✨🌿
Kevin Sullivan and Beth Sullivan, respectively, to you both my most heartfelt gratitude for the Anne of Green Gables and Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman series. Two of the most exquisite and charismatic productions of all time! They will always be timeless in their warmth and presence in my life and my memories. With sincerest gratitude🌹
Anne of green gables in1985 is the real masterpiece!!!!!!! Super beautiful.... I can not describe by words... Just wonderful...... Megan is real Anne.... Ireally respect all who created the Film Anne in 1985. I love the movie.. I lve the movie.... I want to watch the movie 1 million times in my life.....
Everyone who was involved in this production should feel so good knowing how many people love love love this film! this is my favorite movie of all time! The actors the director all the support people should know that their work in this film has blessed so many people and continues to give a gift that is so rare in the world of entertainment today. Was interesting to see how in part it was made, thank you.
Seeing the scene of Anne and Diana standing on top of the cliff in PEI is fascinating to me because my husband and I went to that place in PEI last summer. It was a breathtaking views but there was only one quite narrow dirt road in to get to the cliff and it was nerve wracking to drive on. When cars were trying to drive out while you’re driving in and you both have to pull over to let each other pass but you practically end up in a field by doing so. Lol All I could think of when we finally got to Cape Tryon was how in the heck did they get all the film trucks and equipment in here. I also wondered which exact cliff Anne and Diana stood on. I think I might have guessed correctly but we unfortunately couldn’t get over to it but I’m not sure I was right on which one it was. I’ll never forget our trip to PEI. I had dreamed of going there since I first saw the movie when I was a kid. It was a dream come true and I’m so glad we bought the filming locations in PEI guide book as we pretty much made it to all but 2 locations. It was magical!
Oh my! This Is A Treasure To Keep...My Absolutely favorite of all "Anne's Of Green gables" Movies. Meghan Follows Is The Perfect Anne Shirley For Me Nothing Else But Her...Thank You Sullivan For This Treat To all Of Us "Anne Of Green gables" Addict..We Love You....
They knew they had a hit in the making before the audience had even seen it, and how right they were. A phenomenal story brought to life by a phenomenal cast. I’ve watched it so many times, it’s a classic.
Anne Shirley has been my most inspirational character for all of my life and this was the film that introduced me to her at three years old. I can’t remember my life without Anne! ❤
Ich sah diese Serie, als ich 13 Jahre alt war. Ich liebe sie und sie begleitet mich jetzt schon 35 Jahre lang als Buch von Lucy M Montgomery und als Film. Ich schaue ihn wieder und wieder! Es ist die wunderbarste Geschichte, die je geschrieben wurde!
That was wonderful. To watch how they pulled it all together to create this masterpiece was a joy to watch. Megan really was the best casting choice for the role but everyone else was too, from best-boy to producer. This mini series was vastly more than the sum of its parts.
My goodness I can’t believe it’s been 40 years! I remember the first time I saw this production of Anne Green Gables. I was just a girl, but I fell madly in love with Prince Edward Island and the time period. Celluloid collars, and organza dresses! I still get sentimental when I watch it.
My absolutely favorite movie/stoty ever! ❤ Thank you for posting this! It's fascinating to see a glimpse of the work put into this, and to watch how this story meant as much to the actors and actresses involved as it does to me! ❤
Omg, I need to buy this Dvd! This movie is my favorite and it's so special to me! I love Megan Follows and this special movie! I also love what Megan said about how she always wanted to be like a family with people she works with! I feel the same way! Thanks for posting this!! ❤❤
Watching these scenes being taped, brought tears of childhood ways. Anne absolutely nailed the essence of an orphaned girl. I have seen in my life orphaned children. But I think when we are adolescent girls go through a lot of emotions. Anne of green gables stirred a lot of unspoken words in our own lives, actually in my own life that I had to process. The author L. M. Montgomery and the books bring tears in my eyes. She touched my soul like no other author. Anne of Green Gables will always be my most cherished books. I have to thank all the actors specially Meghan Fellows. Gilbert Blythe, Colleen Dewhurst, Mathew’s, Mrs Lynde and of course Kevin Sullivan and his crew who have worked so tirelessly. Thanks everyone once again and may you all be blessed always as this movie will go on forever.
I loved who they chose to play Anne, Gilbert, Diana, Matthew, and Marilla. They all were fabulous actors. R.I.P Jonathan Crombie, Richard Farnsworth, and Colleen Dewhurst
I adore this movie! Great memories of watching it with my mom growing up. I haven't read the books so I don't know how much was directly taken but the character writing is fantastic
With the terrible things going on in the world, we need to see these kinds of films. Please make them more afforadable. The price is way too high for regular people.
That production was the epitome of pure, wholesome and quality television entertainment. The casting, acting, music and scenery were superb! Although geared for a younger audience, I, an old bachelor at 55 years watched and marveled at the the episodes presented on PBS in 1985. Now at 84 and still a much older bachelor and still old "softie" enjoy watching "Anne" from time to time. Especially listening to Haygood Hardy's wonder theme.
I got rid of all my VHS a long time ago, even if you can find a video player (which is unlikely) the tapes were almost nothing but white line's through the screen lol
The ads on this are brutal. Waaay too many and they blast loudly which wouldn't be an issue except the audio on this is so quiet it's a really bad contrast. Disappointing Sullivan :'(
I would love to meet Megan follows and have her sign my green gables movie set Believe it or not my name is Megan to that’s why I have so much sentimentalNess to this
