Bridge scene from Anne of Avonlea (1987)

Watch Anne of Avonlea on Gazebo TV:

Megan was the perfect Anne, spunk plus a poetic soul, the balance she had in protraying this character was flawless.

[katryna]

This was the most eloquent friendzone I have seen in my life

[RtB]

..."please, say yes"... Heart breaks. And I'm a 50 yo man.

[galactictea]

I am not a sucker for love, but Anne and gilbert story gets to me every time 😭😘

[toplaycool]

So sad that this actor is gone. What an impact he made on millions of viewers. For women, he was the dream man. For the men, he made us learn how win a woman over.

I have a feeling that Lucy Maud Montgomery read Little women and was annoyed how Jo and Laurie turned out so she wrote a fanfiction that happened to be one of the greatest love stories of all time !!!

[FlipGarador]

Wow, Little Women (2019) paid such a tribute to this scene. I didn’t realise how close the dialogue is until I just recently watched the two back to back.

[kiarakoo]

When he whisper "please say yes, " I cry!

[karhart]

Anne was always going to refuse him at this point her character arc, but I think Gilbert dug himself a deeper hole by saying "Everyone expects it." Poor guy was hoping against hope.

No matter how many remakes are made of Anne if Green Gables there will never be a more perfect one than this one with Megan Follows and Jonathan Crombie. I wish he were still alive so they could all come back together to talk about their time making these movies which still touch us 37 years later.

The look on his face when he says:
"Please say yes"
That look of devastation breaks my heart into a million pieces

[anabellraya]

This is scene is similar to Little Women, where Jo rejects Teddy, but this ends in a more elegant way

[asiammizkitty]

Seen this movie a 100 times... I'm still like 'girl shut up and let him talk!' 😂😂

[amyhuerta]

Omg, you can see when he touches her shoulder how her eyes almost widen in surprise.

[shannonkennedy]

Can we all just take a moment to admire meegans beauty in this scene. The hair, and outfit make her look so pretty.

[sapodilla]

"You're an idiot, Anne Shirley!" - Philippa after Anne rejects Gilbert. I totally agree.

[zaafs]

My heart still hurts for Jonathan Crombie 😭 he will always be in my heart❤

[annabel]

Anne: *makes some whimsical comment about life and nature*
Gilbert: *ignores her to say something that actually makes sense*

[dfreemanbooks]

Somehow or other, I made it to middle-age without ever seeing these films. I started watching them just last week with low expectations... and then blubbered like a baby at the Anne and Gilbert scenes like this. What a gem!

"it's not what the world holds for you, it's what you bring to it". Gosh I love this quote sm!
