Gone with my Heart

This is by far the best movie ever made. I love the way it compliments the attributes of the South while shining light on the less pleasant things of war. The classic love story was beautifully portrayed by Vivein Leigh and... Full review

"Gone With the Wind" was remarkable, but I love it because of Vivien Leigh's brilliant performance. She gives the best performance by an actress ever. She is beautiful, spoiled, greedy and mean. And I loved every bit of her. I can... Full review

Since 1939, when Gone with the Wind was made, there has never been a better romantic drama (despite Casablanca). Gone with the Wind is a great film-in 1939 or 2121.... Full review

.... It is just too good to be true. Gone with the Wind sparked a lot of controversy, both good and bad, for this time era. The Passion of the Christ can compare. The special effects and visual style was certainly... Full review
The Greatest Film of its Time, and All Time
Sep 27, 2006

I believe that when one views a film, one should consider the context in which it was made. Barely 10 years after talking pictures were first created; less than that after the first full-length color feature film was created; near the... Full review

This film shows the best of the American cinema. Whether we like the film, or not, one has to recognize the greatest achievement, perhaps, of the creative talent of the people working in the movie industry. "Gone with the Wind" represents... Full review

If you have ever considered GWTW to be less than a masterpiece, you'll be swayed by the 65th Anniversary Edition DVD. The 4-disc set features the remastered film and more extras than you could possibly watch in one day (after watching... Full review

one of the triumphs of the Selznick movie is....The treatment of women in the movies (1974), turns her attention to one of the dubious classics of Hollywood cinema:....George Cukor, beloved by both Leigh and Olivia de Havilland, began the project....that all three use the oppression of African Americans to build a heroic narrative for their white characters.....Haskell notes that some of Leigh's best scenes were done after she returned refreshed from a weekend between the sheets with "Larry"..... ...

But Mitchell was appalled by the film....The story of that satisfied glow is part of the folklore surrounding the making of what is rightly regarded as the greatest film ever made.....she complained of his bad breath.....always regretting that Gone With The Wind had been made into a film.....Not only did he greatly dislike the producer David O Selznick, he also had reservations about the part of the hero, Rhett Butler..... ...
