Product: Anne of Green Gables: The Continuing Story
Rating: 1.0
Better Left Unseen
This is the only movie in a trilogy that I have ever seen and then wished I had not. As a great fan of the Anne of Green Gables movies, and of Anne & Gilbert in particular, I was expecting more of the same heartwarming and genuine storytelling that I had come to love in the first 2 Sullivan films. However, dredging through 3 hours of this movie was more of a laborious affair than anything even close to enjoyable. Pity that Anne fans should be left with this sorry installment of a movie. To those of you who have not seen the movie yet - if you don't want to end your memories of the Anne series on a disappointed, heartbroken note, I would like to recommend not bothering to invest the time and toil that this movie entails. Incidentally, the warm cover on the videos/DVD is a gross misrepresentation of the actual tone of the movie.
