What Were They Thinking??
I am also a guy who loved the first two movies. It was a real treat watching these masterpieces with my wife and children. And then this hideous third go round comes along and I have to agree with everyone else. What was Kevin Sullivan thinking? When David O. Selznick produced Gone With the Wind and Rebecca, he made the BOOKS! Why? Because people loved them and wanted to see these stories on film. Both went on to win best picture of the year. So Mr. Sullivan takes Anne out of Avonlea in this third installment and makes her a spy in Europe????? The endearing Anne in the first two movies is nowhere to be found in this embarrassing mess. She is so serious and not very likeable and the story????????????? So what if Selznick had taken Scarlett O'Hara and made her a mud wrestler? Or had the second wife in Rebecca become an opera star? Ridiculous? You bet. I rest my case.
