read the book first!!

Rating: 10/10 (15 August 2004)

This movie is an epic romance set against the colourful backdrop of the Civil War. However, I do feel that in order to get a full idea of the story you must read the book (composed by Margaret Mitchell).
The movie, for me personally, served as a companion for the book. I saw the movie a year ago and thought 'this is just long and boring'. However now that I've read 'Gone With The Wind', I love the movie and have seen it six times, which may not sound like much but considering it runs for 3h40 is quote impressive.
Even if you haven't read it, 'Gone With The Wind' is worth a look, at least then you'll be able to form your own opinion of it instead of reading mine ;)
