Timeless

Rating: Null/10 (13 June 2004)

The people who have made negative comments about this movie have probably not read the book. I don't think I've seen a movie that so closely follows a book. Yes, there are some minor differences but Margaret Mitchell wrote a book with some wonderful characters and they are definitely brought to life in this movie. I don't think the casting could have been any better. Yes, Scarlett is annoying and spoiled but that is exactly how she is in the book. Clark Gable is Rhett Butler. Perfect. He is exactly as he is described in the book also. The supporting character/actors are also excellent. I've watched other older movies and find it hard to get into them, but I don't have that problem with this movie. That could be because I love the book and watching this is just like reading the book. The look of the movie doesn't seem that old fashioned. Perhaps that is because it is not about special effects but about the characters and they are what bring this movie and story to life. This is one great story. If you haven't...... SEE IT!!!!!!
