Anne Had Scarlet Fever When Marilla Died.........


in an episode of Road To Avonlea and was unable to attend her funeral. Her husband, Gilbert Blythe, went instead. Now, in this 3rd mini-series installment of Green Gables, Anne mentions that the last time she has seen Green Gables was when Marilla died. That was a big continuity error between this and the Avonlea TV series.

i remember this from the TV series and then what they said on the third Anne movie and i have to say i wish they where more carful because of those that where faithful the great road to avonlea , oh well this movie was ok i went on head when i needed to replace my anne of green gables and the anne of green gables i bought the 3 movie set , i do like this movie but there where different ways i would have done it , One thing i know for sure is the reason Kevin went so out there was because of the books mariila was all the way though the rest of the books and with out colleen dewhurst it would not have been the same so they had to go somewhere totally different .

Yes! I immediately remembered that Gil went to pay his respects when Marilla died, and that he had said Anne had scarlet fever. Disappointing that they couldn't have been a little more accurate. I like this third film but I kind of take it with a grain of salt...it doesn't match up with the books, but it's an interesting story.

I liked the 3rd one too, it's too bad there was never a sequel to it .
