- Completely unforgettable - will charm your heart
- This trilogy on DVD is a blessing from lugging around 9 VHS tapes for years!
Since my childhood, Anne of Green Gables and Anne of Avonlea have been among my all time favorite movies - nothing will ever be quite like them. The Canadian locations are gorgeous, the costuming and script superb, and the actors will make you laugh and cry each time you watch it. Thankfully the movies are based closely enough to the books, with more details omitted than added to true storyline - in fact the film will surpass any reader's expectations.
It breaks my heart that the cast was 15 years too old for the 3rd film - but the "continuing story" keeps in step with the characters in their new dramas and adventures.
If you have not taken the Anne journey - do yourself a favor..... be transferred to Victorian country times with these films - the wholesome goodness and spectacular story will make any generation watch it again and again. - 2008-10-07, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Quality is NOT fantastic
- I had to return this product the first time because the first disc got stuck part way through. I can't tell you how annoying it is to be watching and 14 minutes into the second side of Part 1 just freezes. So I mailed it back, got another copy a few days later, and everything was fine up till Part 3. The disc is labelled wrong!! I put it in, was watching and getting confused, but figured, okay, so they jumped right into the action with this one. An hour later, credits rolled, and that's when I realized that that they they labelled Side One and Side Two backwards. I missed the whole first half of the third installment. At this point I was too irritated to go back and watch the first half. Can't recommend this product.

- Avery Scholar , compassion, friendship, and romance
- I really enjoyed the story. You felt like cheering when Anne is listed as the top student and when she wins the Avery scholarship. You feel like crying when Mathew dies and Amerila becomes blind and decides to sell the farm. You feel friendship when Anne and Gilbert become friends. You admire Gilbert, as he develops into both a gentleman and a hero.
The world is very fortunate that the book was published and became a smash hit. The characters development equals "Pride and Prejudice" in dynamics. The plot has a spiritual quality equally "Little House on the Praire". Faith, compassion, friendship, endurance, and brillance characterize the story. The story is a light among literature achievements. So many excellent themes to draw upon into real life. - 2008-09-17, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Anne of Green Gables Trilogy - a must-own
- This is a wonderful triology. I actually bought this as a replacement for my video tapes that I have worn out from viewing them over and over again. It is one of my all time favorite movie sets. The movie has many memorible lines that I quote often. It is not surprising that this trilogy spawned the Disney channel spin-off series Avonlea. Megan Follows is brilliant in this role and really brings the classic book character to life. Anne of Green Gables is truly a must-own.
