SO much better than the Netflix version. It was so classy and well done.

[@Shaarca]

Netflix pretty much just screw everything up as I have noticed recently. Ideology manners are pretty clear there so thats why it’s impossible for Netflix to do a project in a “classy” way.

[@startuphub4097]

I couldn't stomach the Netflix one as hard as I tried. It was so off putting.

[@prashantiyoga3554]

There's absolutely no comparison. It deviated so far from the original books, both in story line and characters. I tried to watch it, but it made me too sad. I have watched this adaptation almost as many times as I've read the entire series of books, it's so beautifully done.

[@elisepatterson7869]

Actually CBC made both lol

[@snoopy1390]

The Netflix version crammed way too many political agendas into it honestly. Really ruined it once those story lines came in. This original was so classy, so perfectly & elegantly done with precision that nothing has topped it since.

[@MagicalChristmasMemories]

She will always be the 'only' Anne for me ♥

Me too. I have all the dvds and still watch them regularly after all these years.

Same. I refuse to watch the new Anne series.

[@annabellebentley2427]

@@hayleismyname2677 if you have time I’d give it a try. It’s not exactly like the books and I don’t think it’s trying to be, but being honest it is really good. I like both versions and both actresses do a great job :)

[@barbarasunday3514]

she was absolutely the perfect Anne! One of my favorite series!

They don't make movies like this anymore. Beautiful, moving, authentic, unforgettable.

[@mrsx7944]

Actually PBS still produces movies that are very well done.

[@robbymonaco3738]

Megan will always be "Anne' as far as I'm concerned! Her talent is off the charts.

[@thepanda1044]

Megan will always be Anne Shirley. No one else can compare. Megan Follows is in a class all by herself.

[@jessicanelson4038]

Can’t believe she was only 19!! She’s such a professional and ahead of her time! I was not that mature at 19! Lol

[@anneswanson2881]

Indeed. Megan is quite the talented young Actress.

[@BlueGenesis.]

Having fully immersed myself in this series as a teenager, looking back in the realization that they were literally filming with so many modern day obstacles is mind blowing. Somehow, still, they managed to create a world for us that was as real and authentic as any other, and I believed it with my whole heart.

Can we go back to 1987!! To be 18 again!! Love and miss the 80s. Never get sick of these cds!! I believe the gentleman who played Gilbert ( Johnathan) passed away.

I was 7 😀 I loved being a kid in the 80"s. We never missed an episode of this show on the Disney channel

[@lisabourque5076]

Sadly, Jonathan Crombie did pass away on 2015

[@insanelyawesam1420]

She’s so pleasantly charming. It just makes my day to watch this video ❤️ Megan is one of the most beautiful women in existence. This movie clearly has had the BEST Anne and Gilbert. They have PERFECT chemistry.

[@underhiswings8752]

My husband and I watched all of the Anne movies and loved them so much! The acting was impeccable, beautiful and moving. Thank you.

[@Sheraleeable]

We used to have Anne tea parties with our girls in our church family & watch the movies🤗❤️ Wonderful movies!

[@Lurker1979]

I have always preferred this Sequel to the first one. In this case the Sequel in my opinion is far far better then the first.

[@oceanegele3559]

Every time I watch these movies, I feel inspired and want to be a better person. They are timeless.

[@bevie29]

I have always been convinced that this production of Anne of Green Gables had geniuses for directors producers and this video seems to confirm that notion.

[@katarinask139]

Kevin Sullivan seems to be such a nice and great director😊

[@sur_un_nuage]

when you look at the behind the scenes and the interviews you can tell it’s a passion project

[@vbrown6445]

I'm so impressed by how Megan gets herself so in the moment that she really crying during these emotional scenes-- especially for how young of an actress she was at the time. Great video. Love these behind the scenes. I have the DVD set of all three of the series, but don't think it has these extras. Thanks for uploading. I will forever love this series.

[@MarieJesne]

I wish they made another movie where Emmeline and Anne meet again. I always imagined Emmeline would become a writer, teacher, or even actress, something inspired by Anne.

[@ashleesorensen7834]

No one has a better laugh than Megan Follows. ❤

[@margemacdonald6921]

And now she is Ty Borden‘s mother on the series “heartland”. Great actor.

[@laurlicia]

So very lovely. Thank you for continuing to include these behind the scenes and other snippets of great film. It's such a great refresher. It also helps us realize what a great amount of very hard work to produce, direct, act, coordinate and all of the other hosts of things that go into them.

[@sullivanentertainment]

Thank you!

[@NoelaniShapiro]

Megan Follows will ALWAYS be my Anne, but I love the Netflix version too! And Rest in Love, Jonathan Crombie, you will always be my Gilbert!

[@falldownhard]

I've always greatly admired the extreme attention to detail in these productions and knew it was no accident. It takes an incredible amount of work to transform a place using real props and stuff vs computers, and the effect is so much warmer and believable. These were the most articulate bunch of people I've ever heard together. The other film versions of "Anne of Green Gables" are completely put to shame by Sullivan's production masterpiece. Megan's lovely mother is intense and clearly respects her craft, so it's no wonder Megan had the polish of a 50 year old actress at age 19.

[@glimpsesofmylife7133]

These movies were the best! Tons of talented people. Didn't realize the director was so young at the time!

[@startuphub4097]

Rosemary Dunsworth stole the show with her impressive depiction of the strident school principal. She's portrayed her complexity with such depth. Just wonderful.

[@monmothma3358]

Dunsmore, I think. But yeah. She made a huge impression on 10-11 year old me, here in Norway. Imagine how far they reached with this

[@lindastangelo1636]

As soon as Megan's mother appeared, I knew she must be Megans mother. Resemblance is amazing. I have seen newer Anne's, but Megan and cast will always be my favorite. They were like puzzle pieces.... fit together perfectly throufhout the movies. My mom, my older sis and i watched the dvd's every year and I have fond memories of our time together doing so.

[@normy1471]

I met Megan a few years ago at Fan Expo. She was also in Heartland on CBC.

[@inezswaffield48]

This is my favourite film ever and it makes me bawl each time I watch it x x

[@princess0221]

Same just watched it and cried like a baby!

[@TheJackdaw77]

This is really the first period drama I watched as a kid in the late 80s. Then that famous Pride and Prejudice came out when I finished high school in mid 90s. Still love period dramas, and I'm certain this production started that love.

[@nesaclark1059]

This version is the best one ever! Thank you Kevin Sullivan!

[@BlankCanvas88]

She would've made a great live-action Ariel from The Little Mermaid.

[@gulsenemtoylymyradova517]

Oh yeah Her facial features are just for that role

[@coraknyn9759]

We loved Anne of Green Gables....so much so that we travelled to Prince Edward Island (from Perth , West Australia) and named our daughter after Megan Follows. The daughter also turned out quite feisty.

[@monmothma3358]

Oh would you recommend it? Going to the Island, I mean? I would like so much to take my daughter there (read AoGG to her many times), but I'm scared of getting disappointed. There's no way it can be as beautiful in modern times as in the shows/books

[@amyn.duncan1982]

I love these movies

[@nectarofpeace]

Thank you, Sullivan Entertainment for sharing this. Brings back a lot of memories of when I watched this and Road to Avonlea with my sisters. 💗

[@aDALEfan]

Anne of Green Gables and Anne of Avonlea are the best renditions of LMM’s beautiful masterpiece. Kevin Sullivan did a great job writing and directing the first two movies in the Anne Series, but the “Continuing Story” was such a departure from what LMM wrote in the later “Anne” series that it shouldn’t have even had the name Anne of Green Gables attracted to it. Of course it was great seeing the actors/characters together again and older, but that’s where the joy ended for me. “You can’t mess with perfection,” as they say, and KS sadly did.

[@debramccluskey6563]

This is one of my favorite films! Love the fact that the characters grew with each sequel too! Green Gables will forever be in my heart!❤

[@wongwendy4325]

I want to rewatch this again. Megan will always be Anne Shirley. I miss Anne and Gilbert.

[@WBCRO]

I always wondered how they found such a perfect actress for the role of Anne Shirley. Megan really “became” LM Montgomery’s Anne; she was wonderfully true to her characterization in the books. Also, I love that these famous Canadian books were brought to life by a Canadian film company.

[@WomanRoaring]

i wish we could see even more of the behind the scenes stuff. i know there were tons of interviews done back then and i'd love to see them.

[@toplaycool21]

It's funny to hear 80s synthesizers with actors wearing period clothing 🤣 But gotta give the filmmakers a lot of credit with trying to hide modern stuff in the film.
