Absolutely Fabulous!

Rating: 10/10 (23 March 2002)

I am no movie critic and haven't seen very many movies, but this one, this classic of the 30's really touched my heart! After reading the book 'Gone with the Wind' I decided to rent the DVD and watch it. I was afraid it would be very bad, over-advertised and all. But already at the first minutes of this movie my mouth opened of amazement: This movie was so great!
It was pain to stop the DVD for a while to answer the phone or to eat some food, because all of the film was so fantastic. Vivien Leigh as Scarlett O'Hara was outstanding, and Miss Leigh was everything I imagined Scarlett to be like! Rhett Butler (potrayed by Clark Gable) was annoying, like in the book. Also Olivia de Havilland (Melanie Hamilton), Leslie Howard (Ashley Wilkes) and Butterfly McQueen (Prissy) were great!
I know most of my aged (I'm 15 at the moment) would prefer to see 'Road Trip' or 'Scary Movie' besides this, but I really enjoyed my experience. Actually, this film is my new favorite! I have seen it only once and am dying to see it for the second time!
Only one small thing made me sad... Did they forget Wade Hampton or what?!?
