Anne With An E season 2 trailer shot by shot rundown
these are screenshot’s from Netflix’s trailer for Anne With An E season 2…i own nothing.
MY CHILD IS BACK AND GREEN GABLES IS AS BEAUTIFUL AS EVER.
for some reason, Anne’s blanket confuses me? i’m not sure why she has it or needs it, like maybe she stepped into the water? but she looks so cute i just wanna hug her.
i completely agree with Ophelia ( @lydias–stiles ), i also think that the sea is going to be important this season or hold a lot of symbolism.
“I love looking out at the horizon and imagining all the possibilities…”
i’m going to try and handle this next part as calmly as possible but-
1) THIS PARALLEL? THE LIGHTING EVEN MATCHES OKAY AND
2) THE FACT THAT THEY CUT TO GILBERT AS SOON AS ANNE SAYS THAT LAST LINE AND THEN DO NOT CONTINUE SHOWING HIM AFTER THE CUT 100% TELLS ME THAT SHES ALLUDING TO THINKING OF THE POSSIBILITIES OF WHERE GILBERT IS OKAY NEXT-
ah yes i missed both you so much (it’s also so nice to see Matthew healthy and walking around without a cane even. what a man).
the bags on the back and the fact that she’s with Diana make me think that they may be going to that poetry concert they travel to with Miss. Barry in the books. i am all for this we love a girls trip.
building the Diana x Rubyx Anne friendship? yes please, carry on. they’re so happy, i’m not crying, you are.
aw the hideout i love this whole set up with the story club.
okay, this scene actually concerned me a little…why does Anne look so frazzled i’m not going to suggest shirbert reunions for every one of these scenes i will not do it i hope she’s okay.
as concerning as Anne’s entrance was, Ruby and Diana’s faces make me even more !!! Diana’s especially. Ruby looks almost afraid and Diana looks extremely worried. it looks to me like they’ve been waiting for Anne in regards to some sort of news? because as seen in the last frame, it looks like they were there before she was.
my prediction is that this is one of the first scenes of episode 1. i recall a post Amybeth had on instagram of her on a beach that looks EXTREMELY similar to this with the caption “Cuthbert on a stroll”. this was towards the very very beginning of filming and from what i could see it looks like they filmed in chronological order. this goes along with the theory that everything is going to start and end with the sea.
i’m also just going to continue pretending that i didn’t start sobbing at the Cuthberts having a beach picnic.
Matthew and Anne’s relationship is so important and I’m so excited for this scene (which seems to be the same one from the very beginning of the trailer as you’ll notice).
so obviously the two girls in the front are Anne and Diana being so cute i really cannot breathe, and the one in the back in the pink hat is Ruby…so i would say the other girl is Jane perhaps? just going off of her hair?
“We’re going to get in so much trouble”
1. i love this dynamic so much and i really will never stop stressing that…
2. i think that this is where they were headed off to in the shot above? my theory is that it’s linked to the scene of them watching Mr. Philips in the play which comes later in the trailer (maybe they were not supposed to know about it). it would also make sense that Jane is tagging along since she is Prissy’s sister and heard about it from her.
“Don’t be late for school”
oh we love a good mother.
translation: Anne is most definitely going to be late to school at some point-
“And don’t burn down the house”
translation: a huge disaster is guaranteed to take place-
and Matthew is fully aware of this fact.
“I want Green Gables still standing when i come back tomorrow”
why is she leaving? ANNE SHIRLEY-CUTHBERT YOU ARE THE SUN AND YOU DESERVE EVERYTHING.
i’m obviously curious as to what they’re laughing so hard at, but also as to why they are sitting on what appears to be the floor of the school house (also it’s important to note that i would die for both of them).
JERRY MY BOY I’M SO GLAD YOU LOOK HAPPY AND WELL AND YOU LOOK SO GROWN UP!!!
aaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I LIVE FOR THIS SIBLING RELATIONSHIP OH MY GOD. though, Anne looks either like she is comforting Jerry or seeking comfort which is never a…reassuring thing…especially when the voice over quote is:
“I believe there’s always a bit of good in any situation”
ah yes, the man we have all been waiting for, here is Cole. i have heard a lot of people (including myself before Amybeth’s live a few months ago) very concerned about the role he will be playing in the grand scheme of things this season (such as the possibility of him being a love interest for Anne), and i think production knew that because they put in scenes like this to try and make people worried.
however, my prediction is that this is certainly going to be a nice brotp and (as ophelia and i have mentioned numerous times) i don’t think Cole is straight (as Amybeth said he brings in a lot of discussions that Amybeth is “an advocate for”). this trailer further solidified my beliefs as you’ll see in a moment-
this scene is one of the ways i see them hinting that Cole might possibly be gay. Diana’s face looks like Philips just said something characteristically horrible so i’ll just go ahead and prepare my hands for this disgusting teacher to cATCH THEM.
oh yOURE STILL HERE??????? (seemingly laughing at Cole being able to braid hair get out).
“I think it builds character”
it looks like she’s talking to someone at the kitchen table. also i love her.
LOOK AT MY GROWN AND MATURE SON OUT HAVING ADVENTURES IN SOME TROPICAL PLACE please come home soon
for those of you who don’t know, the man walking with him is named Sebastian and it’s been heavily speculated that he will fill a sort of father role for Gilbert in this coming season.
AGAIN WITH THE AFRAID AND CONCERNED LOOKS PLEASE STOP THAT.
i’m betting this has something to do with he thieves that came at the end of last season, which you’ll notice have not been mentioned at all this trailer. it’s also important to note that the voice over to this clip is Matthew saying:
“Whatever we’re facing…we’ll face it as a family”.
Ophelia pointed this out to me, but it looks like Marilla has a gash over her eye so i stg if one of the thieves hurt her you can catch me on a war path (-:
she’s looking over to the boys side of the classroom (you can tell they’re at school because of Diana’s positioning next to her). and she is looking in the general vicinity of Gilbert’s seat so my guess is she is either smiling at Gilbert !!!!!!!!!or Cole who now sits in Gilbert’s empty seat.
THERE IS A BALL THIS IS NOT A MF DRILL THERE IS A BALL WITH BEAUTIFUL DRESSES AND LIGHTING AND DECORATION AND FLOWER CROWNS AND IF GILBERT BLYTHE IS NOT BACK IN TIME FOR IT I PROMISE, I PROMISE, NETFLIX AND MOIRA WILL BE HEARING FROM MY LAWYER.
not to read too much into things, but Cole dancing with Miss. Barry (who is gay in canon) is certianly interesting. i’m thinking a sort of conversation goes down where Miss. Barry helps him start to sort everything out that he has been confused about.
“There’s nothing wrong with being different”.
again with the supporting evidence that they’re dropping hints about Cole.
The world does not deserve Anne Shirley. i’m assuming this is him confiding in her a little bit immediately after whatever went down in the classroom with the hair braiding and Mr. Philips and Billy.
the whole class applauding Cole for something while Anne and Cole laugh. even Billy and his little friend seem amused and they’re present for whatever this event is. Josie looks pressed and bitter but what else is new.
this seems to be a little bow of gratitude i’m ready for this brotp.
Sebastian and a love interest that i am fully ready to ship.
i also think that Sebastian being involved in a romantic relationship opens up the opportunity for him and Gilbert to talk about romance and feelings and a certain person back home that Gilbert has feelings for. they’ll get a chance to talk about things Gilbert never really got to learn about from his father go ahead and just leave me here to die.
this shot was quite jarring in the context of the whole mood of the trailer which is interesting.
Matthew appears to be kneeling over somebody on the ground? i’m assuming he was part of the group going out on horses. so perhaps they were searching for this person to begin with?
“There are more important things than beauty…”
i can’t wait to see what this conversation relates to.
can we all just take a moment and acknowledge how they’re already transitioning Amybeth’s hair to more of an auburn color?
“-we must try and remember what’s real and good”.
Anne continuing to learn about the real and good things that love and family brings as she become more and more a part of the Cuthbert family, rt if you cried.
my son looking so grown and mature and having fun.
(im just going choose and ignore the fact that they immediately cut to Gilbert after that last quote and the fact that coincidentally two of the biggest reasons he’s so drawn to Anne is because she’s so real and so good.)
PLEASE TAKE CARE OF MY SON WHILE HE IS AWAY THANK YOU GOOD SIR.
could the scenery directors be more brilliant? like this is so beautiful.
these last few shots of Anne with the ocean are feeding into the theory that the sea is going to be a big symbol this season. i think that this whole sequence is going to be the very last scene of the finale (i remember Amybeth posting a thing about the final adr she was doing where Anne breathes out and laughs but i could be reaching).
i think that the Cuthberts on the beach will be the first scene in episode 1 and this will be the last…..the ocean tying everything together, including Gilbert’s story line.
peep my earlier theory of the girls sneaking into the show to watch Mr. Philips make a fool of himself. Diana doesn’t look too amused however.
this whole expert Anne is reading (which ophelia has confirmed for me is from Jane Eyre) is not only beautiful-
- but i think it’s meant to be Anne subconsciously relating it to Gilbert and what he is doing (who is apparently on a boat!!!!)
“Now I remembered that the real world is wide, and that a varied field of hopes and fears, of sensations and excitements, awaited those who had the courage to go forth into its expanse, to seek real knowledge of life amidst its perils”
this is literally exactly what Gilbert’s whole arc is this season. he went out into the world amidst the peril of losing his last family member to seek out all these things, including himself. this, paired with the fact that it’s the voice over they are using for shots of Gilbert traveling, tells me its connected to the reason Anne is reading the excerpt to begin with.
if this cinematography don’t stOP.
i already stan this scene and i’ve seen .0000384792 seconds of it.
also there is a dark haired boy present as well that could either be Jerry or Gilbert and i’m good with either because i would chop off my right arm for either to have further relational development with Diana.
i wrOTE A SLEEPOVER INTO MY LAST FIC DEAR GOD LET THE REST OF THE SCENE PLAY OUT LIKE I WROTE. i think this has to be the girls unloading after the poetry reading or whatever they were going on that trip for.
yes just be happy it is literally all i will ever ask of you.
yeah so i stan Sebastian already, oops.
the way i read Anne’s face in this is almost like she WAS crying but then Diana made her laugh. OR she looks like she’s just been embarrassed by something. either way…?????
i would die for this friendship.
i’m not going to make outrageous assumptions about what Gilbert could be staring at with such awe and wonder. i will not do it.
this is the same scene as the opening one. and i’m guessing Anne is running towards Diana all smiley and adorable.
well at least knowing the exact date of my death is somewhat comforting.
guys this season looks so amazing and happy. i cannot wait to see what they do with it.
