helsinkibabyNot enough yuck in the world! Browsing wikipedia for random stuff, I key in Anne of Green Gables and find links to a new Sullivan movie. Having disregarded from my brain the travesty that was Anne 3, I click on the link to find that
(a) Barbara Hershey will play Anne. *boggles*
(b) The synposis reads thus.
Anne, now a middle-aged woman, is troubled by recent events in her life. Her husband, Gilbert, has been killed overseas as a medical doctor during World War II. Her two daughters are pre-occupied with their own young families and her adopted son Dominic has yet to return from the war. When a long-hidden secret is discovered under the floorboards at Green Gables, Anne retreats into her memories to relive her troubled early years prior to arriving as an orphan at Green Gables and being adopted by the Cuthberts.
Still haunted by her early childhood, the impact of this difficult period has a far-reaching effect on this older woman, once she discovers the truth about her real parents. She begins a delicate search for her birth father. It is a journey through a past fraught with danger, uncertainty, heartache and joy. In the parade of humanity Anne encounters she also faces the root of her desire to find true "kindred spirits", an inspired imagination and the impetus to use her talents as a writer to inspire others.
I think we can all see my issues, no?
Further links say it's airing on August 25th this year... that was yesterday, oh how bizarre that I should find that! And there is video on the Sullivan website... a world of wrong, let me tell you!!!
