How did Rhett die?

Rating: Null/10 (24 March 2010)

No one has ever written Rhett's death, until NOW! www.deathofrhett.blogspot.com. The movie is quite different from the book. For instance, the first line of the book is "Scarlett O'Hara was not beautiful." So, the casting of Vivien Leigh was a major departure from Margaret Mitchell's original character. All the other casting decisions where faithful to the book, in my opinion. Regarding Rhett's character, the movie failed to depict his huge change in values after Bonnie's birth. In the book, he suddenly became a Democrats and a Methodist! He reverted back to his old ways after Bonnie's death, however. So the Rhett at the end of novel resembles the Rhett of the movie.
