The Greatest Film of All Time

Rating: 10/10 (23 September 1999)

"GWTW" is even BETTER than "Citizen Kane", no matter what AFI says. Of course, I'm not knocking "Kane"-I thought it was another great film but who can compare "Rosebud" to the greatness of "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn" or "As God as my witness, I'll never be hungry again!"?
Clark Gable is timeless as Rhett, Vivien Leigh is the only woman (let alone actress) to play Scarlett, Olivia de Haviland is the ideal Melanie and Leslie Howard is a great Ashley. The only other actor who I think could carry the part of Rhett as well as Gable did is Gary Cooper. He may not have filled the physical requirements of the part but his stature as an artist was just as great as Gable's. To summarize, "GWTW" is the evergreen classic of all films and is a film for any era.
