Anne of Green Gables (2016)
Retelling of L.M. Montgomery's story of Anne Shirley, an orphan accidentally sent to a couple wanting to adopt a boy instead. Featuring Martin Sheen.
Arriving at the household of a middle-aged couple, Anne becomes the charge of strait-laced Marilla Cuthbert (Sara Botsford) and her shy brother Matthew (Sheen). Marilla is determined to bring discipline to the irrepressible Anne, however neither foresees the profound impact they come to have on each other's lives.
