A poor second best
This production has the misfortune of following the brilliant 1985 version. Marilla Cuthbert in 1985 was a solid, religious, grounded woman, who learns to love Anne. The present Marilla is merely cranky. The character of Matthew Cuthbert in 1985 was shy and deep. The present Matthew is a superficial fool. The 1985 Anne was passionate. The new Anne seems forced. The actress does not really inhabit the role — but rushes through her lines and puts on laughter or tears as the script directs. In 1985, the characters interact and change each other. In this production, they seem to bounce off each other. They are not really present. I agree with other reviewers that the story was rushed.Come to think of it, I don’t believe the house had green gables — or any gables at all. (Maybe I’m wrong about that.)
Maybe if the viewer has never seen this charming story before, the 2016 production would be good. Compared to the earlier version — still easily available — it is a great disappointment.
Horrible, boring, and poor acting
Positively horrible! I adored the 1985 version and couldn’t imagine a better version. I was right. The acting seems so contrived. The lines are delivered quickly with little emotion. The newer version is so rushed that it is more like a Cliff Notes version of the story. The plot is just snapshots thrown together, giving viewers no time to digest what is happening or to become emotionally invested.The actors: The young man who plays Gilbert is not as adorable and refined as the late Jonathan Crombie, and Martin Sheen does not exhibit the same adoration for Anne that Richard Farnsworth did. Ella playing Anne is unbelievable whereas Follows became Anne of Greene Gables.
I will stick with the 1985 version.
