Outline
This video is the sequel to the beloved children's book and video Anne of Green Gables. It continues the story of Anne Shirley, an imaginative and headstrong young orphan in 1890s Canada, whose hot temper matches her red hair. Anne of Green Gables told of Anne's adoption by an elderly brother and sister, Marilla (Colleen Dewhurst) and Matthew Cuthbert, and her childhood adventures in the idyllic village of Avonlea on Prince Edward Island. Anne of Avonlea takes up the story soon after Matthew's death, when Anne has graduated from college. It follows her struggles and adventures as an aspiring writer and English teacher in a private school on the mainland. Girls seven and older, as well as adults, will enjoy this intelligent and beautifully made film, first shown on PBS. It's filled with themes parents can discuss with their daughters--including self-reliance, generosity, and perseverance. It also gives a realistic portrayal of the situation for women during this historical period, through characters that are multifaceted and human. Anne's struggle to find her voice as a writer, to handle difficult people maturely, to stay optimistic despite setbacks, and to nurture her students are both thought provoking and entertaining. Girls will also enjoy Anne's romantic travails, as she tries to decide between two suitors: her childhood friend Gilbert, and a rich, handsome, and mysterious widower. The film is beautifully filmed, and the costumes and settings portray an idyllic time and place. The cast is excellent. Megan Follows as the spirited Anne and Dewhurst as the gruff but tender Marilla give especially fine performances. --Elisabeth Keating

 | Great movie/well done. Apr 16, 2010 |
| This is a movie for all ages, as was the original Anne of Green Gables. The characters are captured as I think the author would have liked. | | | | Kindred Spirits are the best! Oct 14, 2009 |
| This is the type of movie I want my family to watch. It has it all!! I do wish that the movies would have followed the books more closely but this is a great movie. | | | | One of my favorite movies! Aug 18, 2009 |
| Excellent acting, beautiful scenery on Prince Edward Island, and script is very close to books. I could watch this version over & over again. :) | | | | Great Continuation of Anne of Green Gables Jul 16, 2009 |
I love this film. It is excellent to satiate your need to know what Anne was up to next after the first movie Anne of Green Gables.
Anne leaves home to teach at a private girl's school and we watch her through her challenges with the headmaster, some snobby students and townspeople. Of course she eventually wins everyone over in her usual way.
She is romantically pursued by an older gentleman and of course by Gilbert Blythe, her childhood classmate. The film is tender, touching, and heart-warming. Great viewing for the entire family, especially for mom and the girls.
The ending of this film makes you go "aaaaaahhhhhh," and you leave satisfied. | | | | Anne of Green Gables brought to life Jul 10, 2009 |
| After seeing Megan Follows as Anne, I have trouble imagining anyone else in the role; she is very much as I had pictured when reading the book. The supporting cast is equally strong in bringing the book's roles to life. While this movie combines multiple books and departs in places from the original story, it is delightful and, I think, true to the spirit of the books. The photography of scenery is wonderful, too -- makes me want to visit Prince Edward Island. | | | Write your own review about Anne Of Green Gables: The Sequel
