Anne

I loved Beren Gokyildiz in Kizim and she was well matched with the cast and the plot was wonderful.. I watched Anne just because Beren Gokyildiz stars in it. I have to admit that her acting ability in Anne is so extraordinary that many of the adult actors seem like props.

Unlike many of the very talented Turkish child actors, her appeal is not from being cute or adorable, although she is very lovable. Her talent lies in her ability to an incredible range of emotions. She is like a child with an old soul.

"Soap opera" drama in it's best format for those who suffer from dry eyes syndrome - you will definitely squeeze out some tears while watching this. I started watching Anne without any knowledge about it since beforehand. This is also the first Turkish show I have experienced. I got hooked even if I prefer thrillers and horror movies.

In general, it has been interesting to dive in to a new culture (Turkish culture), to see how people live, what they eat, what they wear, how they interact with each other etc, etc. (It's very different from my own culture and country, thus interesting and fun to watch.)

Regarding the story...it is very easy to follow and you get to know all of the characters quite fast. It's a drama roller coaster where you will follow the faith of a little child Melek/Turna being abused by her family and how she grows a deep and loving relationship with her teacher Zeynep.

Is it worth watching? I think yes, if you haven't seen a Turkish show before.The shows disadvantage is that it is a bit too lengthy. Would there be a 1,5 hour movie version, I'd prefer to watch that one.

This series had me at the edge of my seat and it was very well done. The timing of when to be in the present and bringing up the past. If I could give it an award right now I would. Beautiful way to capture all the type of mothers out here in the world. Thank you for this production.

85 episodes of tear jerking craziness. The kid who plays Malek / Torne is amazing. The rest of cast is telebovela-ish. One exception is Shola, a very real character by wonderful Gonca Vuslateri. You feel her pain in every scene. All in all I'd recommend it if you like the genre. You know what, maybe also if you don't know the genre... worst thing that can happen is that you'll cry 😂😂

Wunderbares Drehbuch (keine kitschigen Wendungen), sensible Figuren, fantastische Schauspieler

Sehr empfohlen!
