Summary: One of the greatest movie of all times-average DVD
Review: This is the classic Hollywood when there were talented actors, carefully written dialogues and no technical effects. Vivien Leigh is superb and so is Olivia de Havilland. For Clark Gable, well, as Margareth Mitchell said she wrote the character for him, thinking of him, so no surprise there. This is a great love story with striking main and supportive characters and a real war theme behind. The character Scarlet has set the perfect example for wicked seducer beautiful witty manhunter heroines thereafter. However, after the war she transforms into more than that-she becomes the bold, strong, ambitious, independent carreer woman who goes after what she wants no matter how the society judges her. And the character Rhett is her perfect mate, smart, masculine and almost always supporting Scarlet on her way. The movie is a very successful adaptation of the book, leaving no disappointment. The missing star is for the DVD, as there should be more about making of the movie-this is a disappointment

Summary: Great like the book
Review: From the great book comes the great movie. This is one my favorite movies. I love clark gable too. so maybe that's why. Clark Gable is the wonderful Rhett Butler and Vivien Leigh pulls the role of Scarlett O'Hara off pretty well. great supporting cast including Olivia D'Havilland*incorrect spelling* as Melanie Wilkes. This movie is a true classic that will be around for years and years to come. If you love the book, you'll LOVE the movie. Every emotion is felt. Grab the kleenex girls. and guys: you may like the movie too. especially when there are scenes of war and blood. See it if you haven't. I promise you will most likely want to add it to your movie collection. PEACE & LOVE

Summary: Gone With My Heart
Review: I think it is a great movie. It is prefect for history fans. It is one of my favorites movies. It is set in the Civil War era.It is about the love of Scalett O'Hara (Vivian Leigh) and Rhett Bulter (Clark Gable). Scallet is very independent, emerald-eyed women, who first gets married to Charles Hamiltion. He's sister is Melanie, who becomes the wife of Ashley, the man, Scarlett wants, buts, can never have. Then she keeps her family together,--anyway she could. She even killed a Yankee. Then she marrys Frank Kenndy, who she steals from her sister, Sulene. She only marrys him to pay the taxes on Tara. The house she lives in, and loves. He dies while having to get revenge for her. She then marrys her third, and last husband, Rhett. They have a fiery romance. They have a daughter, that Rhett names Bonnie Blue Butler, because her eyes were as blue as the Bonnie Blue Flag. Bonnie dies, because she trys jumping a feence, with her pony, and flips over it.
There are some famous lines in this book. Such as when Scarlett says, "Oh, Rhett, where will I go? What should I do?" He says, "Frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn." Or well Melanie in labor, amd Prissy says, "Miss Scarlett, I don't nothin' about birthin' no babies." The most famous line, is at the end of the movie, when Scarlett says, "I won't think about that now. I'll think about that tomorrow. After all, tomorrow is another day!"

Summary: Scarlet wastes every good thing that comes her way..........
Review: First I liked this movie.I had good actors and all the lavish blockbusters you can find!
I don't like Scarlet! For 98% percent of the time she's being mean,lying,fake,cunning,flirty,snively,whiney,selfish,sneaky,angry,tantrum throwing,anoying,silly,cruel,herselfminded,ect.You get the point.She at first is just a gossipy boygrabber.With one intent on her mind:Ashlene!
A young man a bit shy and noble.Oh curse this Hara crush.I ruins her life! She sees hes going to marry his cousin Melony.So what does she do?
Like a horrible uncaring person she goes and marrys another young man who she doesn't give doller for.Hoping this ploy will work to regain Ashlenes love before she actually does this,IT FAILS! (HORRAY.GOOD FOR MELONY!)So she ends up marrying the poor other bloke.Fortuantly for her,He dies off at war with anomia! Happy Day for Scarlet.(HAppy for that poor fellow having to live with a woman like that.)Who Cares?Only problem is she has to still wear black and can't dance at Balls and such.
And somthing she should be arware of is she keeps coming with Frank Butler.A Gallant,swagger of a man he finds Scarlet more and more attractive every time they meet.Why doesn't Scarlet just shut up instead of bugging poor Ashly? I don't feel to sooorry for her in the end when she runs wailing(Croadile tears?)after Frank........TARA! the final word!

Summary: Frankly, This Is One ... Fine Movie
Review: I know "Gone with the Wind" has been teased to death, and there seems to be a sort of snob appeal among the film critical community in denegrating this film as overblown Hollywood melodrama. But the thing that impresses me about "Gone with the Wind" after seeing it recently on the big screen is that it's one hell of a good movie. The entire first half moves with a propulsive energy that not many films can match. Victor Fleming (billed as director, though there were at least four director names attached to the project) stages one sensational set piece after another, and hardly a scene goes by without a quotable line or a memorable image. The success of any adaptation of "Wind" is going to rely greatly on its Scarlett, and here I can't say enough about Vivien Leigh's performance. I quite simply cannot imagine any other actress in this role, so perfectly does Ms. Leigh embody it. She's in virtually every scene, but even after four hours of her, I'm not tired of her, and her ability to captivate the screen while she's on it doesn't lessen for an instant. Clark Gable is Clark Gable, perfect for his role as well and an able match for Leigh, but his performance plays as window dressing as compared to Leigh's powerhouse work. I also want to mention Olivia de Havilland. In her own way, she is just as powerful in her role as Leigh is in Scarlett's. Melanie's character is less dynamic and so by sheer necessity de Havilland is frequently upstaged by Leigh. But she holds her own nonetheless. And what struck me is the chemistry the two actresses have when on screen together. The scene in which Scarlett attends a party dressed in bright red, braving the gossip she knows will attend her presence, and Melanie walks slowly forward, determined to prove herself a refined lady by welcoming Scarlett unconditionally, is a tour de force for both actresses. I take points away for some soap operatic elements in the second half that grind the story to a halt, but otherwise this film deserves its place as one of the greatest achievements in American cinematic history. Grade: A

Summary: A magnificent Movie which Hattie McDaniel
Review: Gone With The Wind is one of the best movies that I have seen. I watched this movie twice in one day! From the first seen with the three white women in a cotton field on the plantation called Tara in Georgia during the Civil War to the end when Scarlett played by Vivian Leigh decides to return too the plantation I cannot come up enough words to describe this epic. Vivien Leigh's performance as a spoiled, self-centered lady name Scarlett was awesome.
Scarlett was very man hungry. She would do whatever to get money to save the Tara from being taken from them for taxes by the Carpetbagger. And Clark Gable as Rhett Butler, who is gentleman and is so in love with Scarlett that he sticks by her as long as he can even though he knows she is not in love with him. In the end Rhett is the only man who is Scarletts' match and she realizes she loves him when it is too late. Rhett leaves her because he realizes the she will never love him and they have lost their only child so there is nothing for him to stay for. He wants to go back to Charleston where he came from too see if he can find peace, charm and grace. I loved it when he walked out the door to leave Scarlett and she ask him what am I going to do and Rhett stated "Frankly I do not give a damn." Then you have Leslie Howard as Ashley who is weak and timid but Scarlett is deeply in love with and would do anything to have him. And Hattie McDaniel, the first African- American to win an Academy Award plays as "Mamie" who is Scarlett's maid, loves them dearly and seems to be the only one who plays the mother role to Bonnie (Scarlett daughter) and shows so much love for the family. Hattie's tells Rhett that he should not put Bonnie on the horse with a dress on. She states, " It ain't fitten, just ain't fitten! This movie I feel appeals to all audiences both male and female. The movie is relevant to every aspect of life today, even though it takes place in a period we only read about in history books. I rate this movie 5 stars because I feel that anyone who rents the VHS or DVD will love this movie and it a part of history that everyone see.

Summary: Why no "Special Edition"?
Review: GWTW is my absolute, all-time favorite movie. I've seen it so many times I've lost count (and many of those were at movie theaters.) I've wanted to own this DVD since the first day I got a DVD player. I absolutely refuse, however, to buy this stripped down edition. One of the most celebrated movies of all-time and there are no "special features" or "extras" on the DVD? Surely I'm not the only one who feels this way.

Summary: One of the best films ever made
Review: I'll admit, the first time I saw this movie, I didn't care for it. I saw it on network TV, chopped into little bits and scattered over two nights. The other night, I actually had a chance to watch the entire film from start to finish, and had a completely different experience. While this isn't the greatest story in the history of literature, "Gone With the Wind" must rate as one of the best films ever made. Its popularity is immediately apparent. The performances are outstanding--just as Humphrey Bogart was born to play Sam Spade, Clark Gable was born to play Rhett Butler. And Olivia DeHavilland as Melanie--what a phenomenal performance. To me, one of the weak spots is Vivian Leigh--but then again, she's asked to carry an enormous storyline, playing a character who is not exactly easy to like. (Alas, poor Leslie Howard; could he look any more uncomfortable in a movie?) The physical production holds up well, even today. The use of creative camera work, the back-lighting, editing, script, and film score all contribute to create a huge, compelling, complete story. At nearly four hours, this is one loooooong movie--but the time passes effortlessly; the viewer can't help but be swept up in the sheer force of the film. "Gone With the Wind" is a must-see film.

Summary: Ranks as one of the greatest movies EVER (duh)
Review: "Gone with the Wind," starring Vivian Leigh and Clark Gable is perfect as Rhett Butler. "Gone with the Wind" is one of the greatest movies ever, for obvious reasons, and you'll probably agree by the ending. The acting is excellent, Vivian Leigh's performance as Scarlett O'Hara is masterful at best, and Clark Gable is perfect as Rhett Butler. The scenery in the movie along with the cinematography makes for a lush and beautiful set and candy for the eye. The script was taken from the novel of the same name and is easily top notch. One of my favorite parts of the movie was the ending. Rhett Butler is leaving and says the semi-famous line,"Frankly my dear I don't give a damn." When he leaves, Scarlett falls to the steps and this is where one of my favorite lines in movie history is said(you'll have to see for yourself). After this line your heart will break like Scarlett's when you see Rhett walk off into the distance. The ending is also one of the best I've seen, and one of my favorites. By the time the Exit Music starts, I was left in my seat feeling that I had just watched something very special, and asked myself why I ever hesitated to watch it in the past. HIGHLY recommended 5/5
