Wonderful and compelling drama!

Rating: Null/10 (13 July 1999)

I was 15 when I rented this movie a couple of years ago after reading the book. I loved every minute of it. Now I own the soundtrack and the digitally-remastered video version of this timeless classic (of course the book is ALWAYS better).
Vivien Leigh received a well-deserved Oscar for her performance as the spoiled and bratty Southern belle. Other kudos go to Clark Gable as the handsome and rough Rhett Butler, Olivia DeHavilland as the sweet and kind-hearted Melanie Hamilton, Leslie Howard as the kind-hearted Ashley Wilkes, and Hattie McDaniel as the motherly Mammy.
If you have never seen this movie, then you need to run, not walk, to the nearest Blockbuster and rent it (or buy it). Before you do, check out the book too. It's a wonderful masterpiece.
