REVIEWS Review by anonymous (posted on 24-Jun-2005) If you are a true "kindred
spirit" you can't help but love this old show. In some places it is a
bit different from the books and characters differ from the later movie
starring Megan Follows. All actors in the movie are charming with the
exception of the Marilla character. I didn't think she fit the role at
all. If you enjoy the books or the later version starring Megan
Follows, you will enjoy this movie. Just be ready for a few characters
to be a little different.(For instance they combined Mrs. Lynde and
Mrs. Barry) I give it a thumbs up for a classic movie!
