A must see!

Rating: 9/10 (15 November 2015)

Gone with the Wind, Margaret Mitchell's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, is one of the bestsellers of all time, with at least 28 million copies and more than 155 editions having been published in nearly every language and country. David Selznick's film adaptation, winner of many Oscars, including the first for a black actor, Hattie McDaniel. It was also one of the first major movies to be made in Technicolor, Gone With the Wind is an epic from the golden age of movie-making. Overblown and melodramatic, it somehow achieves more than the sum of its parts, thanks to a spirited modern heroine, the main character Scarlett O'Hara, and its refusal to give us the neat conclusions you'd expect This is a must see for anyone living in the south.
