Product: Anne of Green Gables: The Continuing Story
Rating: 1.0
I'd give it just one point of a star if I could!
First of all, those who have NEVER read the books should not review the films. I say this because, I noticed that the people who gave this third movie the most stars said they have not read the books. These films exist as "Literature into Film"; therefore, they are not just movies to view to pass the time. These films (1 and 2) are so popular, because they gave us the characters as presented in the books. Yes, even the second film leaves out characters and deviates from sub-plots, but the essence of the Avonlea people is kept in tact, as well as Anne's charm. This 3rd installment... why was it even made? I have to watch 1 and 2 all over just to find my Anne again. If you loved the first 2 films, then you SHOULD read the rest of the novels (starting with Anne of Green Gables), and then only watch this third installment if you are the type who craves disappointments. And if you have read the books, then this is your fair warning on the huge letdown factor that awaits you with this movie. Otherwise, why bother? This third movie left me "in the depths of despair"...(sigh)
