Gone With the Wind

Gone With the Wind is based on the novel by Margaret Mitchell, titled Gone With the Wind

The scene i found memorable was that while in Atlanta, Scarlett dances with Rhett.  He tells her that he intends to win her but she assures him that will never happen.  They later marry and have a daughter.  

Scarlett's drink of choice is Brandy

Scarlett's dress was a dark green when she visits Rhett Butler in jail.

The dress was hand made from the curtain in the house.

The time period and date of the film is during the Civil War in 1861 to early 1870s

My favorite quote is "Frankly, my dear, i dont give a damn" this famous line is used at the very end of the film when Rhett decides to leave Scarlett.  She begs him to stay and asks what will she do or go.  His response is this.

To start, i would say clear four long hours out of your day.. possibly more because you might need a break.  Its understandable why it won so many awards, the acting and the film as a whole is very well done.  But the story line seemed to drag out.  With a film being this long there needs to be alot happening to hold the attention of the audience.
