Great Movie

Rating: 10/10 (25 February 2006)

I got this movie from someone else. There would be no way that "I" would buy Gone with the Wind. There was no way that I was going to watch literally four hours of a full blown romance movie. But when I decided to try it out I was very surprised that I was eager to pop in the second part. I was surprised that I was engulfed in a romance story but then I though its not like that at all. This movie is commonly referred to as romance and that is how I viewed it when I started it but I quickly realized that its not a romance movie its a war story. I'm not saying that it is not a romance movie. There is a fair share of romance in the movie but thats not the whole movie. Vivian Leigh is great as Scarlett O'Hara and Clark Gable is great as Rhett Butler. The movie takes place during the civil war and there are a lot of exciting parts. The whole movie is a triumph and it gets a lot of crap from the younger generation. Everyone should at least give this movie a try. I went in thinking that I was going to hate it but came out surprisingly satisfied. 10 out of 10
