Anne of Green Gables: The Continuing Story (2000)
This departure from the book series is a huge disappointment.
I wish I could unwatch this miniseries. I can't believe that the same people who did such a wonderful job adapting the Anne books into two other miniseries made this terrible excuse for a third installment. It's like bad fan fiction. It's one thing to take some creative license, but Anne fans deserve much better than this. This simply doesn't capture the spirit or tone of the books. Diana has turned into a raving bitch, the Anne/Gilbert wedding couldn't be more anticlimactic, and the whole thing revolves around war. I can't believe I bought this...I want a refund...and I want back the three hours of my life that I lost. Anyone who has a sincere love for the books and/or the first two series should steer clear of this painful and depressing offering.
My Josephine (2003)
Love.
This movie is...WOW! Barry Jenkins is pure GENIUS. Incredible sense of tone and story. I look forward to witnessing his undoubted cinematic future.
