Summary: Outstanding!
Comment: As a young girl I loved watching Anne of Green Gables...I remember I could never get enough of the show...I always wished it was on longer/more often, etc. So now, as an adult, I purchased this set and could not be more pleased...It's such a witty, wholesome show and I highly recommend this product for men, women, and children of all ages!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellence at its best
Comment: I teach children's literature to college undergrads and we read a critical edition of this novel. I show a short clip of this movie in class and tell them all to go buy it--which, for an English instructor, is a serious endorsement. It captures the book so well. Every child should grow up with this. Even the guys in my classes (not that I get too many) like this book and movie. Don't miss it. (But read the book, too!)

Summary: Ann of Green Gables
Comment: Wonderful story of an imaginative young girl given difficult circumstances to overcome, and succeeds beyond her young, naive belief.

Summary: Anne of Green Gables DVD
Comment: After seeing part of this DVD on Public Television I was so intrigued I ordered the book and this DVD. This film was beautifully done and the scenery of the area which was the real setting for the story was exceptional. It follows the book very closely. Only a few noticeable editorial changes which did not negatively affect the story.

Summary: Canadian Classic, Great Set!
Comment: This is a great set with disks that have been *slightly* restored and extra features have been added. I am very glad they are closed captioned.
1. Anne of Green Gables is one of the best novels ever written and the mini-series is presented very well and is accurate to the book. It is an outstanding rendition. The release of this set is nicely timed with the 100th anniversary of the novel.
2. I like the first sequel even though they made changes, mostly because they were faithful to the flavour of the novel and kept most people & characters the same as they were in the books. This movie is semi-loosely based on Anne of the Island and Anne of Windy Poplars. However, I do miss Roy Gardner!
3. I do not care for the 2nd sequel because I feel they went too far from the words that made Montgomery famous. I would have preferred if they had presented Anne's House of Dreams which is one of LMM's best books. Instead they borrowed ideas from Rilla of Ingleside and made Gilbert (and Anne) go off to war. They did not presently A & G's wedding well at all and I was disappointed. Jon Crombie's characterization of Gilbert was very altered. In the books Gilbert was always the jokester and "teasy" even when he was older. I didn't know the thin and serious Gilbert presented in this mini-series.
I'd recommend this set because of the great extra features. The 3 mini-series are nicely presented.
