Mr. Hammond PLOT: (from the official "Anne" site:) Anne of Green Gables is a 1985 television movie based on the novel Anne of Green Gables by Canadian author Lucy Maud Montgomery. Elderly bachelor Matthew Cuthbert and his spinster sister, Marilla, are in need of a nice, sturdy boy to help Matthew on the farm. So they decide to adopt an orphan. But the orphanage mistakenly sends a girl instead - a mischievous, talkative redhead who would be of no use at all. She would simply have to go back. But the longer Anne Shirley stays at Green Gables, the more no one can imagine living without her. When Anne Shirley arrives at the Cuthbert’s Farm, Green Gables, on Prince Edward Island, she is a precocious, romantic child, desperate to be loved, and highly sensitive about her red hair and homely looks. In her own unique, headstrong manner, Anne manages to insult the town matriarch, Rachel Lynde, in a dispute over her looks, smashes her slate over Gilbert Blythe’s head - when he calls her “carrots” during her first day at school - and accidentally dyes her hair green in an effort to turn her red hair black and salvage her wounded pride. Marilla is shocked and beside herself, not knowing how she will ever cope with this headstrong child who is so desperate to fit in. But shy, gentle Matthew is always there to defend Anne and hold her up on a pedestal. It seems Anne is destined to cultivate disaster. She becomes “bosom” friends with Diana Barry, but accidentally succeeds in getting Diana drunk by unknowingly serving currant wine instead of raspberry cordial at a tea party. Diana’s mother turns on Marilla for making the wine in the first place and forbids her daughter to associate with Anne. From then on, Anne moves from one mishap to another as her wild imagination and far-fetched antics combine to constantly bring trouble upon her shoulders. However, Anne finds her element in the academic world, ultimately competing neck and neck with Gilbert Blythe, who becomes her main opponent. Anne and Gilbert go on to win the highest academic accolades, constantly vying for honors at every level. Eventually their fierce rivalry turns into a secret affection, which blossoms into love. Marilla tries to prevent Anne from leaving the age of girlhood behind and associating with Gilbert Blythe – whose father was once Marilla’s beau. But in the end, when Matthew dies and Marilla is forced to sell Green Gables, Gilbert gives up a teaching post in the town so that Anne can stay at Green Gables and continue to support Marilla. One is left with the impression that Gilbert’s and Anne’s lives will henceforth become intertwined. Anne gives up the romance of her youth and prepares to undertake the journey of becoming an adult. Movie Review: Truly one of the very best movies ever made! I love it from beginning to end! Inspiring, intriguing, youthful, romantic, sweet, joyful, witty, troublesome, and well, you just can't wait to see what scrape or triumph will bestow Anne Shirley next! Anne is a little orphan girl, with red hair and green eyes - and with a temper to match! No one could have portrayed Anne better than Megan Follows. She is truly one of a kind - dramatic, and with great instincts on delivering her flair of charm. Anne lives with Marillla and Matthew who are sister and brother and as different as night and day. Matthew is rather shy, and a softy... while Marilla is much more stern. Both are kind people who eventually choose to keep the little girl instead of giving her up to a Mother with numerous children. Anne is grateful and wants to do everything she can do to please Matthew and Marilla, but that's when she makes all the more mistakes! Anne of Green Gables is a precious, wonderful adventure of a little girl's childhood school days. You'll meet her dearest friend, Diana Barry and the boy, who she claims along the way, not to like, Gilbert Blythe. It truly is a wonderful family movie!!! Beautiful, beyond words.... See or Skip: Absolutely see this movie with your family! It is Wonderful and just like Tomorrow, with no mistakes in it!!!

So one of my top movies has to be Anne of Green Gables Based off the book by L. M. Montgomery the first movie was lovely and though the second movie is not close to the book I still enjoyed it. Starring Megan Follows as Anne Shirley She is such an original character. Her love of books and the way she makes up names for places the instant she arrives in Avonlea. She almost leaves one breathless with her chatter but one can't help but love her! My favorite part! Anne portraying the "Lady of Shalott" whose boat accidentally sinks and she must be saved by a handsome gentleman in an awesome hat. But more about him later. The Beautiful Diana Barry best friend and kindred spirit of Anne Shirley played fantastically by Schulyer Grant Anne and Diana have such a special relationship. I love this scene. Sorta bitter sweet with such a gorgeous backdrop. Surveying a certain person at their first ball. Gilbert Blythe, great friend, enemy and sweetheart. Portrayed with brilliance and emotion by Jonathan Crombie. He is the guy with the cool hat as you can see :) Love this picture Black and white + awesome hat+ faraway look= amazing Enemies (at first) So funny. They are great friends in this picture, though it may not appear so :) Stern and unrelenting yet loving and so ineffably kind Marilla Cuthbert played by the always awe inspiring Colleen Dewhurst These two bring the whole movie together. And Matthew Cuthbert, brother to Marilla portrayed by Richard Farnsworth. He is so so gentle and compassionate. He is the sweetest most lovable character one will ever come across. They have such a close relationship. From the moment Matthew finds Anne at the train station and she talks his head off. And last but not least is Patricia Hamilton as Rachel Lynde. Gossip, snobby, always in someone else's business. And though sometimes one may want to strangle her she brings humor and laughter with her. So full of laughter, sadness, friendship and love. A story that should never end. Full of a wonderful cast, fantastic costumes and setting and a story of growing up. If you have not watch Anne go and rent it. Now!
Jonathan Crombie died last week at the age of 48, but as Gilbert Blythe in Anne of Green Gables he gave us many memorable moments.
Guys we all loved season 3, but there is so much more we need answers to and want to see ! The whole ka'kwet storyline and Anne's Queen life and obviously how shirbert develops! So let's hope this petition catches the eye of Netflix and they decide to renew the show for season 4! Anne would want us to fight!

These are the characters from TV, movies, and literature that sparked your sexual awakening.
Emmeline Harris was the daughter of Morgan Harris and Adelaide Pringle, the granddaughter of Margaret Harris, and a student of Anne Shirley at Kingsport Ladies' College. Emmeline was born to Morgan Harris and Adelaide Pringle, circa 1891. Her mother ran off shortly after and died of consumption, which the spiteful Pringle family, including Emmeline's grandmother Margaret Harris, blamed on Morgan. Due to her father's preoccupation with his business affairs abroad, their relationship grew distant
