Missy Wiley that’s because Marilla had a romance with Gilbert’s father when they where younger and they had a quarrel. Marilla was too stubborn to forgive him so quickly and by the time she was ready to forgive him, he had already married another woman. After that Marilla never married and was resigned to live with her bachelor brother on Green Gables for the rest of her life as a maiden and grow into an old spinster. Anne smashing her slate on Gilbert’s head was a bit of a “haha” to Gilbert’s father who she quarreled with and his mother who “took” the one man she loved.
I dye my hair pretty often, usually odd colours like blue, etc. My mom raised me on these movies when I was a kid; so when I screwed up my first dying fiasco and turned my hair green, the first thing I did was quote this movie 😂 We got a good giggle
@@khaotictrash but... why would you dye it? Redhead it's so beautiful 🥰😍 and iconic. I would die for having that color of hair. Mine is just... brown. I don't know, I always get distracted by redheads. They're like unicorns in this world.
Yes. When he's in the store and asks for the rake and 20lbs of brown sugar because he's embarrassed about asking for the dress!! So heartwarming!! I LOVE Matthew, and cry when he dies EVERY time I watch it!!!!
@@RNSforlifeYes, and Marilla regretted never having forgave Mr. Blyth. This is why I never understood her standing idly by for so long when she could see Anne making the same mistake with Gilbert that Mariila made with his father. She does eventually tell Anne, so there’s that, I guess.
The real charm of the movie is Crombie's expert and subtle gazing, something that is not properly executed in other Anne remakes. No matter how many times this movie gets remade, I will always go back to this version because the actors perfectly captured the old rustic charm of fleeting romance between Anne and Gil. Furthermore, the last look that Gilbert gave when he hugged her means that he's glad that she was his. I love the subtleties in this version and I will never ever forget how perfect Jonathan and Megan when they portrayed Gil and Anne.
Hi! Thank you so much for the wonderful comment! Yes, Jonathan and Megan really gave the portrayal of Anne and Gilbert something special. Sometimes subtle is best; you can convey so much with just a look.
Well said!! I couldn’t agree more. The acting in these movies was just wonderful; each character was so interesting. Gil and Anne in this production is forever Gil and Anne for me.
I love how Marilla was all upset that Anne cracked the slate over a boy's head......until she found out WHICH boy. Then she seemed almost amused and pleased she had done it.
Jonathan Crombie was everything I imagined Gilbert to be when I read the books as a little girl. He was an exceptional talent. Just the way he looked at Anne showed his longing for her. It's so sad he left this world too young. RIP Jonathan Crombie. The best Gil ever xxx
This exact same thing happened to me when I was 17! Being a redhead like Anne, I'd always dreamt of "raven black hair " just like Anne....so I put a henna in my hair to turn it black...But to my horror, it turned green!
Well, you certainly can relate to Anne's predicament. Just wondering if you already knew of Anne's same experience when it happened to you? Did you shave your head as a result?
Amazing story! I can sort of relate; used chemical dye, and it didn't turn green but it looked awful anyway and made my hair all crispy.. Live and learn
Keith Popko No, I didn't "know Anne" until I watched the series when it aired in 1986. I loved it so much, I went out and bought all of the Anne books. No, I didn't shave my head. I walked around with ugly green hair for a few weeks until I found a treatment to strip the henna off 😅
I was about the same age as Anne is supposed to be in that scene, when I first saw this show, when it was brand new, and I have used that phrase ever since!
Heartbreaking indeed. People worked themselves to an early grave then. To make it to 40, was a blessing. We are so fortunate today in many ways with the luxuries of electricity and other machines that aid us.
"Did you hit him really hard?" "Yes, I'm afraid I hit him really ,really hard." Then Marrilla has this coy smile flash across her face and let's Anne know they'll be keeping her. Best moment ever!!! 👏🤗💃🙆♀️🙋♀️
She had strong emotions (like Anne) that she just hid all the time. Anne tried to hug her and she flinches then gets up and walks out but says a kind word as she exits.
@@swampsprite9 She didn't want to like Anne, but realized Anne was not one to hide her emotions & Marrilla loved that about Anne. Anne acted immediately upon her emotions. I loved that about her as well👍🥰❣
My “life movies.” Every time I watch them, I want be a better person, love more, dream more, live more. They’re just so pure and wholesome and align you to what really matters.
I knew from the moment Marilla sat down on the bed with an exasperated sigh Anne was going to stay at Green Gables! She was proud of her girl for breaking the slate over Gilbert's head :-)
I'm a grown man too, and I didn't discover this wonderful adaptation (except for the 3rd film when Gilbert goes to war) until I was in my late 40s. I am now 66 and still love it just as much.
Richard Field I love reading that grown men can appreciate this adaptation👌🏼 it’s what I watch when the world seems dark and depressing. I always feel better after watching Anne
My Mother was obsessed with Anne of Green Gables. Growing up in England in the 60`s & 70`s I watched many wonderful presentations of this great story; the Hollywood film; the BBC TV series etc. But quite simply Megan Follows; Colleen Dewhurst etc made this story their own. I can no longer watch any other version. Anne of Green Gables is Megan Follows and Megan Follows is Anne of Green Gables.
This is the best version of Anne of Green Gables. I first watched this in Elementary School and enjoyed NOT because it was FREE time at school, but because the movie was awesome with intriguing story and brilliant acting.
My mom fell in love with this movie when she first married my dad (who's canadian lol) so I was lucky enough to grow up with this series and the books in my life. It really shaped my childhood with it's simple beauty from the story to the picture to the music. Now I'm going to have my own child and you can bet shes going to grow up knowing the beauty of this film as well
I always love how though Marilla was annoyed about the slate incident she also seemd to start to realize that Anne had some problems, that and she probally also agreed that Gilbert slightly deserved it. I also love how you seems to genuianly feel bad for Anne when she reveales her hair.

This was so perfectly cast. I couldn’t watch the scene with Matthew; I loved that actor so much and it was because of this role. One of the few masterpieces of Canadian film.

I'm a guy, and I love the Megan Follows film. because, to be honest, I was 17 years old at the time, and thought that Anne (Follows) was so cute I couldn't keep my eyes off her. I had read the book first because I was a fan of Oscar Wilde, and the language of this book was very much like the style of Wilde.
I'm finally reading the series for the first time and absolutely love them, but I grew up watching the movies and I think that's where my interest in redheads came from 😉. But really, these are so good and I'm not ashamed to say it.
Have you seen Megan in Reign? It's a Netflix show and she's a pretty mean queen in it 😂 (poisons people). I watch it purely to see Megan but she's no Anne in it.
"You may be a kindred spirit after all"! I love all of the characters...such an uplifting and inspiring show. I used to tell my mother "I'm in the depths of despair" .
I'm 24, I love this , I regret that I didn't have watch it earlier, I love the background music I love anne, I love the language they speak , I love the scenery . Canada is so beautiful
My dad bought the entire set when I was in high school. It was over a hundred dollars but, because of our membership to Barnes and Noble, we got it for half off. I still have it to this day, but I haven't busted it out in quite a while. I need to watch it again, and even though I'm in my mid-twenties, I see myself more and more in Anne, because we both love to write, and we feel our feelings very strongly.
Anne of Green Gables literally tore my heart out, especially some of the scenes between Anne and Gilbert. The novels and this series is such an important part of who I am and I never want to forget it.
That's awesome to hear! We are encouraging our fans to share how this film has impacted their lives, and we'd love to hear from you! www.surveymonkey.com/r/CDQVFZ5
My dad found this on VHS at the public library and brought it home to show me when I was 7 or 8. He'd seen it on PBS before I was born and said that I just had to watch it. He was so right. I'm so grateful to have been raised by parents who introduced me to wonderful stories like this and who watched along with me, laughing and getting choked up in the same places. Everyone involved in this project gave us all such a lasting gift that I hope everyone can share in.

R.I.P. Jonathan Crombie. Jonathan Crombie's life ended unexpectedly on Wednesday, April 15th, 2015, from a brain hemorrhage, while in New York city. He was 48 years old.
I always liked Richard Farnsworth, he's such a sweet cute lil guy. Broke my heart when he died in the field. I don't normally get emotional watching movies, but he got to me in Ann Of Green Gables.
Gilbert not only called her “Carrots”. He also threw stuff at her and pulled her hair. He got away with it too. Anne was more upset with the name calling though. She was just upset when Rachel criticized her but wasn’t physical.
I believe that the physical pain she was just used to it, considering the life she had before. But that she could ignore and move foward. Her hair it's always with her and everybody talks bad about it, so when this new boy comes and just talks like that, she fells judged once again.
I think Lucy Maud Montgomery would like this movie adaptation of her book. Also Megan Follows was perfect in this role. When I'm reading the book I always see Anne Shirley like in this movie.
No one plays the tender, deep love of Anne from Gilbert like Jonathan Crombie. The man could say so much with his eyes! He will forever be Gilbert Blythe.
Great choices, I cry my way through these scenes everytime 😭 No offense to the new version but I can't even watch it, Megan and Jonathan just WERE Anne and Gilbert and there is no space for substitutes in my mind or heart!
I completely agree!! This is my favourite version. Megan and Jonathan will ALWAYS be Anne and Gilbert for me as well! They perfectly portrayed the characters’ essence ❤️
I think I have watched these movies more than 50 times and read all the books many more times. I wish they would have shown or mentioned all the proposals she recived.
I just re-watched this movie after many years because I'm going to PEI next week. The music in itself brought me right back to my childhood of watching this movie over and over again and I immediately teared up. I cried all over again when Matthew died. Every time I heard him say the line "I love my little girl" I lost it and lost it again this time round too. That line kills my every time. :(
It's such a heart-wrenching moment. Hope you enjoy your trip! Btw have you ordered our official PEI Travel Guide to the filming locations used in Anne of Green Gables? Our PEI Traveler's Kit includes the guide book and is on sale right now. It'd be the perfect trip companion! Find it here: bit.ly/31TcaQl
Oh wow.....when Matthew died I cried for half an hour! When he said he loved his little girl and then died....I must have gone through half a box of Kleenex.
When I was 12, Mathew's death was the first time I really cried to a movie. A lump the size of an apple was stuck in my throat, but I didn't dare make a squeak in case my teasing parents heard. Then Mum turned to look at us all, shrieking, "Who's crying?" and laughed at me for having a river down my cheeks. That scene still makes me sob, even though I can always hear Mum's voice in the background of my mind.
"Go away Marilla, I'm in the depths of despair!"
XD Spoken like a true old-fashioned emo.
Ndusk yep xD
Ndusk 😁
Not emo, Drama Queen.
No wonder she wanted to dye her hair black.
Wow hater
Marilla seems pleased Anne smashed her slate over Gilbert's head.
No but, could relate to the loss of temper at a Blythe.
I agree with you, Crystal. Had it been any other boy Marilla wouldn't have felt the same, and she wouldn't have called Anne a kindred spirit.
I think it's because of Marilla's old quarrl with Gilberts father. So, yes she was glad that Anne hit him on the head.
Missy Wiley that’s because Marilla had a romance with Gilbert’s father when they where younger and they had a quarrel. Marilla was too stubborn to forgive him so quickly and by the time she was ready to forgive him, he had already married another woman.
After that Marilla never married and was resigned to live with her bachelor brother on Green Gables for the rest of her life as a maiden and grow into an old spinster.
Anne smashing her slate on Gilbert’s head was a bit of a “haha” to Gilbert’s father who she quarreled with and his mother who “took” the one man she loved.
More like ironically amused.

Omg I did too, I'm also a redhead and I tried to- quite ironically- dye my hair black and it turned green 😂😂😂
Lol yessss
@@khaotictrashI'm auburn and dye my hair brown due to my eyebrows being brown. When I go in pools it turns green tinted and I have to re dye

NOT MATTHEW! It always made me so sad that he didn't see his Anne girl grow up into a woman. He would have been proud.
Mc Hobbit Absolutely I loved Matthew, my heart broke when we lost him, what a great man!
Wait he died?
@@mariellegarcia6401 Yes, the actor died in real life.
Matthew's a doll. So sad
He also died in the book, they did a pretty good job of following the book!
Mathew buying the dress and Anne showing it to him in the barn is one of my favorites.
Rusty Barr I hope if and when I have a daughter we have a relationship like Matthew and Anne. My life would be complete then.
Puffy Sleeves 😊
Yes. When he's in the store and asks for the rake and 20lbs of brown sugar because he's embarrassed about asking for the dress!! So heartwarming!! I LOVE Matthew, and cry when he dies EVERY time I watch it!!!!
From "I can't face him again!" to "I just want you"
Jonathan Crombie will always be our Gilbert
Danae yes but I'm too saddened by her losing Matthew. I just cried...
I actually wept when he passed.
I cried so hard when Matthew died, the actor that played him was so sweet. 😭
Nobody wanted Matthew to die, even if he and Marilla were already senior citizens. Anyone would have loved to have him for a grandpa.
@@abinashmishra329,had a grandfather like him. Super close. There the day he died talk to him as he was "sleeping ". Miss him dearly 😢
It was at that moment Marilla realised...Anne was the daughter she always wanted but never had. ❤️
Her brother Matthew was the kind one
Facts. Marilla used to date Gilbert's father.😊
@@RNSforlifeYes, and Marilla regretted never having forgave Mr. Blyth. This is why I never understood her standing idly by for so long when she could see Anne making the same mistake with Gilbert that Mariila made with his father. She does eventually tell Anne, so there’s that, I guess.

Because she had done the same to his father😊, she realised Anne and her are kindred spirits after all
RIP Jonathan Crombie. Thank you for being our Gilbert Blythe.
"I think you may be a kindred spirit after all." Marilla's slight smile and Anne's expression of utter joy just brings tears to my eyes :)

Someone Is speaking the truth
Just by listening to the tone of her voice I don't think she's as proud as you think she is
I love Anne jst cuz she hit Gilbert Blythe with a slate

I don't think she was proud but, could relate to the loss of temper at a Blythe.

I believe that the physical pain she was just used to it, considering the life she had before. But that she could ignore and move foward. Her hair it's always with her and everybody talks bad about it, so when this new boy comes and just talks like that, she fells judged once again.
"I feel so utterly wretched."..Anne Shirley.
Hahaha.😂👍
I have every confidence that it was master-of-the-craft Colleen Dewhurst who made this (and coached this) production to be a masterwork.
Holy cow, who would've guessed watching a 7 minute video would turn out to be such an emotional roller coaster!
Cant count how many times this awsome wholesome show made me cry😢
I love the ending where Anne and Gilbert kiss finally.
we love that too :)
I think Lucy Maud Montgomery would like this movie adaptation of her book.
Also Megan Follows was perfect in this role. When I'm reading the book I always see Anne Shirley like in this movie.
Absolutely beautiful. I don't know if that's not my favorite part of the movie
No one plays the tender, deep love of Anne from Gilbert like Jonathan Crombie. The man could say so much with his eyes! He will forever be Gilbert Blythe.
Great choices, I cry my way through these scenes everytime 😭 No offense to the new version but I can't even watch it, Megan and Jonathan just WERE Anne and Gilbert and there is no space for substitutes in my mind or heart!
I completely agree!! This is my favourite version. Megan and Jonathan will ALWAYS be Anne and Gilbert for me as well! They perfectly portrayed the characters’ essence ❤️
By far the best version of the orignal story.
I think I have watched these movies more than 50 times and read all the books many more times. I wish they would have shown or mentioned all the proposals she recived.
Anne did get a lot of proposals! It would have been interesting if we could have shown them all.
this is my favorite movie of all time. Love Anne so over dramatic!
SuperHorseman22 She's filled with so much angst.
I just re-watched this movie after many years because I'm going to PEI next week. The music in itself brought me right back to my childhood of watching this movie over and over again and I immediately teared up. I cried all over again when Matthew died. Every time I heard him say the line "I love my little girl" I lost it and lost it again this time round too. That line kills my every time. :(
It's such a heart-wrenching moment. Hope you enjoy your trip! Btw have you ordered our official PEI Travel Guide to the filming locations used in Anne of Green Gables? Our PEI Traveler's Kit includes the guide book and is on sale right now. It'd be the perfect trip companion! Find it here: bit.ly/31TcaQl
I don't know why I couldn't watch this without bawling when I know it so well!
Her green hair actually looks cool in modern day... A lot of kids are dyeing their hair green in my school.
Always cry and have seen it so so many times.
Why did you have to make me cry?!? 😭
Am I the only one who wishes Megan and Jonathan had had a real life romance not just as Anne and Gilbert?
jonathan was gay
@@haleyobrien608 I spat out my tea
This show is just the best !
Oh wow.....when Matthew died I cried for half an hour! When he said he loved his little girl and then died....I must have gone through half a box of Kleenex.
*“I’m in the depths of despair!”*
The best Anne
I love the change in Marilla’s face when she hears the last name “Blythe” 😂😂
When I was 12, Mathew's death was the first time I really cried to a movie. A lump the size of an apple was stuck in my throat, but I didn't dare make a squeak in case my teasing parents heard. Then Mum turned to look at us all, shrieking, "Who's crying?" and laughed at me for having a river down my cheeks. That scene still makes me sob, even though I can always hear Mum's voice in the background of my mind.
Don't worry, it always makes us bawl our eyes out too! Loved Matthew!
Every Anne moment is memorable
My favourite scene! I cry every time!
Rest in peace, dear Gilbert. 💔
I will say that the girl who played Anne in Anne with an E is more like the one in the book appearance-wise.
Love this movie. My daughter and I binged on a Saturday watching it. The newer version sucks to me.
