I love this version more than any other version of Anne of Green Gables
Same.
Me too
Agree! The BEST!
I do so as well
Same. I remember watching it when it first was aired on PBS. I still remember it fondly.
The moment when Matthew hugs and kisses Anne makes me tear up. He really did love her, shy and retiring though he was.
Yes I loved their relationship it definitely does pull at the heart strings Blessings ✌️🍀♥️💚💙
Absolutely… he reminds me of my dearly departed great uncle Royal. He has white hair, bright blue eyes that twinkled and always had a smile… I imagine him part Matthew and part St. Nick!
Me too!
My fave male characters: Mattew & Gilbert. Love Anne but she had it coming.Miss Jonathan ,Anne
So schön, das Beste ,was es gibt. Ich liebe es so sehr.
We were really fortunate to have watched these shows as children.
Agreed. I used to love watching this series. Now I realize what today's generation is watching and I'm still hoping that a time machine might be developed.
I've loved it since I was 8 years old. I'm 24 now and that hasn't changed.
@@whitewolfaudios I've loved it since I was a child and now I'm 59!!!!! It was serialised on TV I think in the 70's. I've always REALLY REALLY LOVED IT. My favourite bit is when Anne buys the hair dye thinking it's black, and it dyes her hair green!!!!!!!!!
The fact that Diana had a crush on Gilbert as well but knew he liked Anne so she supported Anne and him regardless of her own feelings! Diana was selfless!
That shows that Diana is an actual true friend who really cares for her bosom friend who is Anne
She also told Anne to stop playing games with Gilbert and either admit her feelings or let him go so he can stop being miserable
@@thefutureisnow7300 Yep, and eventually, they both admitted to each other that they loved each other
because she knew Gilbert didn't like her anyway
@@Not_Alwaysclearly you're a troll who has never seen the movie. Either that or you're incredibly emotionally r€t@rd€d and lack the ability to see what is extremely obvious.
I loved marilla. She was so strict but loving. So conservative but understanding of youths desires. She was indeed a kindred spirit. Mattew was so wonderful you could not cry. Oh such heartbreak when he died.
Stephanie gone Wild HE DIES??
Rach ReadsFanfic I love this comment so much
Omg yes❤️
I remember crying my eyes out when I read that he died😭
I hated Marilla ! So caustic!
I HATE this. well i should’ve known they were both old 😔
I always wanted a friendship like Diana’s and Anne’s
Sameee
Me too :(
But later Diana goes away.
Me too. They are one of the best friendships ever!
I'm lucky that I have several
"don't you like it?" "like it? its more exquisite than anything in the world."
my heart just melted into chocolate.
Elizabeth Cosham :) 🍫
I always kinda thought she was talking about the dress but ment it about Mathew the way she was looking at him when she said that.
Speacial coming from someone who ( Anne) never had anything - poor. So sweet anne & mattew
We all need a Matthew in our lives.
When I was thirteen I met Mathew- Richard Farnsworth at Cowboy poetry in Elko Nevada. I heard he was there and my dad took me to get his autograph. I could not have been more thrilled! He was so shy and generous just like on the film. Mathew and Marilla are two of the dearest characters in literature. Kindred Spirits. Dear true solid folk.
@Lisa Mathis his character shown through in his acting. I always have had a soft place for him 💕
"How could you wish that...person a Merry Christmas?!"
"I'm sorry, I'm Canadian, it was instinctive!"
ZannaZatanna1 Ha Ha Ha! Your comment made my morning. Canadians are some of the most polite people in the world. Even when they're mad.
redmr2na oh God it's so true. I thought it was just a stereotype until I worked at a conference for HS kids from all over and had to drive a sick Canadian kid to the local pharmacy to get him checked out. He was apologizing the whole time!
ZannaZatanna1 just imagine what the world would be like if we were all as polite as Canadians.
😂🇨🇦✊🏼
@@redmr2na than I live in the wrong country because I am too polite when I am angry
Nothing compares to this beautiful production of Anne of Green Gables. My family very much enjoyed gathering together to watch this.
The scene fro 1:21 when Anne thanks Matthew for the dress his such a superb example of great acting. The love that they display for each other during that is just beautiful. Still brings a tear to my eye.
So very true! It just never gets old.
They were probably close in real life too
Yes, authentic true feelings
Megan Follows was born to be Anne. And then because of this gem of a masterpiece of a production and depiction of the historic tale, it leads you to realize that each and everyone of the cast were perfect and born for their roles too. The same for the producer, writers, crew, etc.
I love how the off the rack dress was obviously oversized, untailored and out of scale to Anne's frame. It was clever and added to the visuals/concept of the scenes. This was a great production of AOGG.
Thank you! :) Our costume designer Martha Mann was a genius; she always thought about how the clothes that the characters wore were a representation of their lives or moments in their lives.
@@sullivanentertainment What she created was very true to the period and really contributed to the whole production, which btw. will always stand as the original Anne of Green Gables.....! THANK YOU Sullivan Entertainment!
Really? I think it fits her fine, the puffs are big as they were in those days.
I love and adore Anne of green gables
Because of this version, I bought all of LM Montgomerys books.
I love how Mathew bought a rake and 20 lb. of brown sugar while working up the courage to ask about a dress for Anne. And of course, the scene where Anne thanks him for the dress always brings tears. Love this film❤️
He asked about buying hayseed, in December. He doesn't like talking to people at all. ❤
“Tell your brother I’ll see him at the toboggan party” is arguably the most Canadian thing I’ve ever heard.
What is a toboggan party?
@@joerogers540 I think it's a sledding party. I'm not sure
@@marbled2816 Yup, that's right!
Matthew Cuthbert has the biggest heart in the world 😢❤
They just don't make'em like this anymore!!!😭
Then let's be the ones to change that in whatever ways we can!
They didn't even make the sequel movie like this lol.
Read the books.
So true 😔
When Anne thanks Matthew for the dress, I can't help but cry. One of the greatest scenes in the many great scenes of the entire show. Matthew and Merilla were PERFECTLY cast. 30 years later and Anne is still one of my favorite movies. Just perfect.
Those puffs are bigger than my future ;(
Dawn4Day _ sameee
those puffs are bigger than my self-esteem
OMG I almost spit out my food because of this comment!!
@@aloiv2654 Same thooo
I know this comment is old, but I wish you nothing but happiness and positive energy! Have a good day.
Every scene with Matthew makes me cry. Such a gentle soul.
When Matthew died was one of the sadest moments ever on tv 😭
Productions like this one made my growing up have moments of comfort and cosiness. It's so pure compared to what we have now.
BEST. ANNE. EVER. And an unbeatable supporting cast, especially Farnsworth and Dewhurst.
Agree. These are the only Anne, Mathew and Marilla for me.
Marilla:(Commenting the "puff" sleeves) They're ridiculous, you'll have to turn sideways to get through the doors.
Marilla:(Annoyed) Twenty pounds of brown sugar.
Marilla was my favorite character.
i love marilla 😭😭😭❤💙
She was fantastic. Ack! Watching this scene makes me want to see the entire miniseries again. But I really don't feel like crying. Everything in this makes me cry. The sad things. The happy things. I don't know what it is, but I can't get through very many scenes without tears welling up.
Joseph Charles same here. I've come to the conclusion that Anne of Green Gables is quite possibly my favorite movie of all time.
Sigma0283 one of the most memorable quotes
Oh, Marilla, why can’t you for once just be happy for Anne? 😡
Matthew was such a wonderful character, I cried buckets when he died. Such a sweet soul, he loved Ann so much.
Me too! I know I cried for at least a half an hour!
I basically like every adaption I've seen of Anne of Green Gables, but nothing compare to this one! And this is the only Gilbert that still makes my heart flutter, he is perfect!
I can watch Anne Of Green Gables until I turn into dust! Loved this miniseries and Sullivan Entertainment knew how to do it right! From casting, cinematography, to location! Heck even the puffed sleeves!
Exactly! :-))
"20 pounds of brown sugar!"
My sisters and I loved watching this series as children. We still randomly use that line by Marilla 😂
I'm pleased there are people writing here who loved watching this as children!!!!! I'm pleased I'm not the only one!!!!!
Me too! 😂
It's so cool how Anne always has someone to love her and comfort her. It's also cool how she made a bosom friend to grow up and be happy with.
Anne looking at Matthew like she'd never seen anything so wonderful in all her life: a Dad. 😭
My grandparents gave me the best gift ever during jr high. They took me to see the real green gables. My friend and I were obsessed with all the books and movies and were picking out all the spots.
Such a wonderful gift from your grandparents! I am sure you must have relished every moment at Green Gables. The nature there is truly exquisite. 🙏😇❤️❤️
I'm from Charlottetown too!!
I'm not crying, you're crying
Shann C yes. I am crying.
Shann C we are both crying 😭😢❤
No man will ever measure up.
I'm not crying
Yeah 😢 I love Mathew so so so much I cried so hard when he died 😭❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love every Anne of Green able show!!!! I was like her in so many ways. I became an "orphan" of sorts when my mother died. I was shuffled around relatives who truly didn't want me. I got hand me downs whereas my mother was a beautiful seamstress & copied any new fashions for me. I was 13 & left to the mercies of different aunts or uncles. My grandmother bought my youngest aunt, who was 3 years older than me, anything she wanted . She was dainty like my mother was & I was just tall & skinny so her dresses couldn't be lengthened enough for me to wear. My precious grandaddy went to bat for me sometimes. He would slip me money & tell me to go buy something special for a school dance. I loved that sweet old man with all my heart. He would end up in a fight with my grandmother until he'd had enough. He never raised his voice to anybody, not even her. He'd signal me to meet him under our tree where we went most ever night & he actually listened to me. So Matthew reminded me of my grandfather & Morilla reminds me of my grandmother. When I got engaged he gave me $20 to buy myself a wedding dress. It wasn't very pretty at all but it was what I could afford. My grandmother even picked my boyfriends & told me it was time I got married & got out on my own. I did just what she said. I did not love him but he loved me so we stayed married 38 years in a strange loveless married, had 3 amazing children I'm so thankful for but I finally got out on my own, the first time ever! I wasn't looking for another man at all but God sent me one, lol. We dated 10 years, both had bad marriages & didn't intend on getting married. After 10 years God really took control of us & we ended up getting married in 2012. He's a very Godly man & we live a Christian marriage & now I hate we wasted 10 years to marry but it was all in God's plan. Thank you all who post any of the Anne books.I listen at night through earbuds, they help me sleep.
To Me and Jesus, it's lovely that you said you're in a Christian marriage and you love God. I love him a lot as well. I'm sorry about everything you had to go through before things turned out well for you, but at least they did in the end.
Matthew: (sees Anne's tears) "Don't you like it?"
*My stepdad whenever I'm overwhelmed with happiness about something he's bought/something he does for me*
If I read the book and watch the series a thousand times, I will always cry at the Puffy Sleeves Dress scene. Matthew was an angel and so was Marilla, even though she acted tough. "Brown sugar indeed."
Matthew reminds me so much of my grandpa. He had a stroke last year, but thankfully, he turned out okay after a day or two. This scene and this movie as a whole makes me cry so hard because it makes me think of him. I'm glad my aunt introduced me to this when I was younger.
Juliette Aurora he reminds me of my Uncle.
So strange, now that i read your comment i can finally determine why i absolutely adored Matthew. He reminded me of my grandfathers. Both of them had same kind and warm aura
It's a gorgeous gown! Although I think a pale minty green shade may have suited Anne better; it would have complemented her Titian tresses.
You can't be serious! The gown is awful, especially the puffed sleeves, yikes! The acting is superb!
Kaira T the dress was ugly, but in those times they were considered fashionable. But I do love the acting. Made me feel warm inside
I think it's beautiful. I'd rather wear that than today's outfits.
battywattywoo mint green is my favorite color
The dress is OK. Kevin stated they put paper in the sleeves to puff them out.
This just became my favorite version of Anne of Green Gables. Anne with an E, to many surprises, I actually quite like, because it has a more realistic aspect of it, but this version here just brings my imagination of the book to life. This Anne is so incredibly charming, and brings the character intended in Montgomery’s book to life.
Anne with An E was an extremely unrealistic portrayal of Prince Edward Island in that era.
Eh, Anne With An E was really modernized and more 'woke'. It lacks the character development of the books, at least for me. The Anne movies of the 80s are much better at delivering the subtlety of the original books.
@@Rebecca_Englishit changed everything, forcefully put a lot of charactsrs in there that didn't belong there just to be politically correct. It was disgusting. 😢 As if Montgomery was racist just because she didn't put those characters in there. As if the producers were her and our teachers. And I bet the young ones will never read the originals and just watch that riddiculous Netflix Show. 🙄
WHAT A GREAT SCENE BETWEEN,ANNE AND MATTHEW! SUCH A LOVE FOR EACH OTHER. THAT DRESS MEANT EVERYTHING TO ANNE,MATTHEW WAS SO HAPPY FOR ANNE .HE MADE SURE HE WAS GOING TO GET ANNE THAT DRESS.❤️❤️THE PERFECT CAST FOR A TIMELESS STORY, OF LIFE!!! BOB
Beautiful scene. "Vain as a peacock" lol why do I feel like that's everyone on social media today?
Well spotted!
Megan Follows was absolutely perfect in this role. When I read "Anne of Green Gables" I'ts almost like I was watching this movie, that's how influential it is.
My only qualm with this is that in the book he asked Miss Rachel Lynde to make the dress (and she was delighted to do so).
Other than that, absolutely lovely interpretation.
And she did an amazing job at that, making a compromise between what Anne wanted plus something she knew wouldn't make Marilla too embarrassed. I didn't like her at first but she soon won a place in my heart.
savage Gilbert just ignores her at 4.14 but does however acknowledge Diana 😅
And the moment He picked up her dancing card (?), afterwards because it is something of hers❤
1:37 One of my favorite scenes when he asks her: "don't you like it?" The expression on his face says it all. BRAVO!
I loved Richard Farnsworth, he kind of reminds you of a grandfather that you never had.
Reasons to envy Anne:
1. Her exquisite beauty (as played by Megan).
2. Diana.
3. Gilbert (although she didn't appreciate him for years).
4. Her affection for Jane Andrews, "a jewel"; I had 2 classmates called Jane, and there was nothing jewel-like about either of them!
5. Her imagination: she has delightful daydreams, such as being a frost-fairy.
Love love love this scene with the beautiful dress with the puffed sleeves....and how much Mathew wanted her to have it. Marilla might have rolled her eyes but she knew how happy it made them both.
when Gilby was just watching Anne at the end...my heart broke.(Gilby is my pet name for Gilbert.)
Elizabeth Cosham that's adorable
Lol, i call him Gilly
If you don't mind, we'll all call him Gilby from now on. That is the most splendid thing we ever heard of!
i call him blythey because my brother and dad are called gilbert. i always thought blythe was a cute name anyways
Did Anne and "Gilby" get married in the end????????? I never saw Anne of Avonlea, I never wanted to see it. I loved Anne of Green Gables so much, and still do, that I never wanted to see any other ones about her.
"20 pounds of brown sugar" (with rolling eyes 🙄🙄🙄)
I laughed so hard 20 years ago when I first watched this series.
I still laughed so hard like an idiot after rewatching this so many times😂😂😂
Indeed 😂😂😂
My absolute FAVORITE movie of all time!!! I've watched it more times than I can count :)
Same.
Same. This, Titanic, Forrest Gump, Fried Green Tomatoes, and The Help. I'm not sure why.
“How could you wish that person a merry Christmas “ Got me dead 😂
Out of any other Anne of Green Gables, this one is my favorite. Even when Anne and Diana grew up in the Anne of Green Gables the Sequal and Anne of Green Gables the Continuing Story, they both played really well in these 3 movies
The 1970s version was the best but apparently the reels got destroyed in a fire.
It’s the music! The music makes this movie even more beautiful 🥰 this movie reminds me of simpler happier times 🥹
I believe Matthews death is one of my first heartbreaks
Mine too! Even though I've watched it many times over the years and know it's coming, I still cry my eyes out when he dies in that field in Anne's arms!
I loved Matthew. The whole cast was fantastic. Truly one of my favorite series of all time.
We have the box set after watching it on PBS several times. When my husband's mom came for a visit we played this for her in Spanish and I didn't miss a thing because I knew the dialogue so well. 😀 She enjoyed it and was amused that I followed along. Marc explained that we'd watched it many times. They are both gone but even alone it's a very happy memory. ❤
every single time... even 20 yrs later. ugly crying with matthew and anne
I'm never getting over Anne of green gables, such a touching, lovely story!
I met Richard Farnsworth about a month before he chose to leave this world. He was on a cruise with his beautiful fiancee. I was a meet and greeter at the pier when he was looking for his luggage when I recognised him and told him how wonderful I thought he was as Matthew Cuthbert - he was very gracious and sweet but was suffering from bone cancer.
When Anne thanks Matthew for her dress with puffed sleeves and they hug and show some emotion together really shows some great acting. This series was so good.
I love this Matthew Cuthbert. He reminds me of my father-in-law, sparkling blue eyes, reserved, quiet, so loving and eager to give to the ones he loved. Every time I see this Matthew I see my Father-in-law.
I always think this scene is one that shows just uow much Matthew loves Anne
Best version of Anne of Green Gables ❤
This is such a great scene. I only just noticed now how Marilla's sweater has that tiny little puff at the shoulder. :)
i loved how they dressed in the old days
Oh my GOODNESS! This is absolutely one of my very favorite scenes!!! When Anne walks into the barn to thank Matthew the tears flow! I just love these characters so much and the actor portraying Matthew was so wonderfully spot on! I just love him SO MUCH!🥰❤️🥰❤️
Why did I click on this? I knew it would make me cry. Dear loving Matthew.
One of the best movies ever made!!
This is the definitive version of 'Anne of Green Gables'.
Great adaptation of the text, beautiful cinematography, & a cast of rare talent--all the characters are so finely etched. There's something special about the tone as well: this adaptation captures the magic of human kindness & decency, without being maudlin or saccharine.
The best Anne ever!
The only Anne
I remember reading these books as a kid and crying my eyes out!
Oh cool! It's not too often someone has read all the books. Usually people loose interest after Anne of The Island.
If you don't cry when Anne hugs Matthew, then you need to a doctor, something ain't right
"Gilbert Blythe would stand on his head for me if I asked him to."
She’s not wrong
I recently read about a book written about Marilla in her younger days called Marilla of Green Gables, would be interesting to see a movie of young Marilla..
I learn reading and speaking and english by watching Anne of green gables, pride and prejudice, roald dahl books. Thank you
I was so little and always loved Richard Farnsworth he reminded me of my papa. His young voice never matched matthews old ish face lol
A classic in our family, my two daughters LOVE this movie, have their own copies and still watch over and over…they are now 40! Loved all the characters as if we knew them personally, my youngest cried when the actor that played Gilbert died… the whole cast was spot on….Thank You.
I love this scene so much!!! I cry all the time!!!! such a Canadian classic!!!
This was one of the best scenes. They just don’t make shows like this anymore. Matthew was so nice to Anne by getting her that dress. It was so pretty! And I too loved Marilla. She was strict but loving. 😁
best version of this movie. My grandmother gave me the anne of green gables books to read as a 10 year old as we were touring canada
"How could you wish that person a Merry Christmas?!" I laughed so hard at that!
I think my favorite Episode is when Dianna gets drunk accidentally.
LOL! I have the recipe for that in my Anne of Green Gables Cookbook. I can easily see how left to sit for too long it could become boozy.
"you'll have to turn sideways just to get through the door"
THIS IS PERFECT,WHAT LOVE SHE HAS FOR MATTHEW ❤,ITS A PERFECT SCENE,PLAYED BY TWO FANTASTIC PEOPLE,HOW YOUNG AND OLD CAN RESPECT EACH OTHER WITH HEARTFELT LOVE! WONDERFUL VIDEO .P.S. LOVE THE PUFFY SLEEVES ❤😂👍😎BOB.
Mr. Farnsworth and Ms. Dewhurst set the standard for this duo roles.
I have always loved Anne of Green gables
SO HAVE I!!!!!!!! IT'S THE BEST THING EVER!!!!!!!!! IT NEVER DATES, YOU CAN NEVER GET TIRED OF IT.....................
This movie is just too beautiful for words!!! I’m not crying...we’re ALL crying!!!! ♥️😫♥️👗♥️😭♥️
Yes we are all crying
Matthew: “puff sleeves”. Anne: “puffiest in the world!” Aww So cute!
My Sister and I dressed up as Anne and Diana since I have red hair and this is my fave movie I made the costumes myself it was so awesome it being my first time sewing something big like that
LOL! Back in 2018 you would not believe the number of Anne and Diana pairs there were at the Calgary Entertainment Expo because Megan Follows was one of the guests. I quit counting after I got to 8.
I love this movie so muuuuuuuuuch ..😭😭😭abd this paaaaaarrrrt..😆.. this is probably my most favorite movie I've ever seen. 🥰🤩🥰🤩🥰🤩
3 reasons to envy Anne:
1. Matthew and Marilla
2. Diana
3. Gilbert
Damn, what a lucky girl!
Love, love Matthew♥️
"Brown sugar indeed"
Something about the way Marilla says that makes me laugh uncontrollably 😂😂😂
This was one of many favorite scenes! For years I would take an entire day and have friends over so we could binge watch Anne of Grren Gables!
Trio of treasures from our neighbors to the north the US will always appreciate.
Canadian bacon, maple syrup and This 'Anne of Green Gables. '
These characters hold such a special place in my heart and this adaptation is the best in my opinion . Anne with an E doesn’t even come close to how good this one was!
I liked Diana's dress better than Anne's the sleeves aren't crazy and it is a nice color.
I prefer Anne's. It's such a nice blue.
Anne is swimming in that dress. It's like a Laura Ashley 80s idea of a period dress. Color washes her out. But Megan's acting is so good, you believe it's the prettiest dress in the world.
She’s been an orphan. It was gorgeous compared to what she was use too. And Matthew didn’t know any better because he’s a man.
I loove them both
It was the style at the time. I read that one of the reasons fabric was so lavish and added bulk like the puff sleeves is because around the turn of the century (1900) and before, it was hard for people to get enough calories to meet the daily recommended. Manual labor such as hand washing and gardening was also common which burned calories and fast food wasn’t a thing yet. So many ppl tried to hide looking too thin with a lot of fabric and then it became the norm in fashion.
I think of Anne's puff sleeve dress often with the current fashion trends
Oh my god! I feel so nostalgic. This was one of my favorite movies when I was 10. I still love it.😍
