Still as beautiful as was in 1939.

Rating: 10/10 (26 November 2011)

Gone with the wind is a soaper set against the most splendid of backdrops; the civil war. 4 hours have never passed faster and rivals Citizen Kane for one of the strongest films ever made. Leigh and Gable are still the most memorable couple in cinematic history and their romantic scenes are wonderful to watch. David O. Selznick's crowning achievement as a producer and Fleming's best film as a director. The technicolor (which is signature of Fleming's films) is still some of the richest and most powerful of film history. This took audiences and critics away in 1939 and it does not fail to enthrall even today. it actually only improves with age.
