Hello everybody!
I know, I've been absent again.
I blame 2 weeks of autumn vacation and the following madness of getting back to my daily routine, which is also why I have so many posts waiting to be read and commented on, but all in due time.
The real reason for this post is just to remind you that my Classic Hollywood Celebration starts this Tuesday. It's still not too late to sign up if you haven't already done it:)
A good weekend to you all! I'm off to continue writing my reviews. (You know nothing is more motivational than a fast impending deadline)

Anne Of Green Gables Tag
As you may have noticed from the button, these days Miss Evie is hosting an Anne Of Green Gables Week at Over The Hills.
1. How did you get introduced to Anne of Green Gables?
Originally my mother showed me first part of the movie, but for some strange reason I didn't like it and therefore didn't finish it.
A few years later, however, one of our friends gave me the book, and now I loved it! (And I also love the movie today)
2. Are you more like Anne or Diana? Why?
Definitely Anne! If in doubt I refer to the banner at the bottom of my blog;)
No seriously, I, like Anne, have a very vivid imagination, I love dreaming me away to far off places and create dramatic stories in my head. And I like using big words too:)
3. If Rachel Lynde called your hair as red as carrots how would you react?
I would politely ask her if she needed new glasses, as my hair is obviously not red but blond;)
4. Gilbert or Morgan Harris?
Gilbert!
5. Honest opinion on the third Anne film.
It should never have been made!
There was plenty of source material for a sequel, so I don't understand why anyone would throw it away and simply make up a new plot.
6. Have you seen the New Anne film?
No, but I just watched the trailer, and despite Gilbert looking all wrong, I think it could be fun to watch.
7. What in your own words is a Kindred Spirit?
A Kindred Spirit is when another persons thoughts are in sync with your own, and when there are thoughts you can't properly express in words, they still know exactly what you mean.
8. Movie Gilbert or Green Gables Fables Gilbert?
I haven't watched Green Gables Fables, but I don't think anyone can compare with movie Gilbert.
9. Does anyone know where we can watch Road to Avonlea online?
No, sadly not.
10. Favourite book cover?
This one:
11. The Films or The Books?
The books, always the books!
The films may be good, but they're not very true to the books (except the first one), and what I love about the books are all the little vignettes of Anne's everyday life and adventures:)
10 days dedicated to Anne can only be great as we all know;)
To kick the week off Evie has made this delightful tag, and here are my answers:
