Surprisingly good and entertaining during it's 220 minutes

Rating: 8/10 (10 January 2014)

Gone with the Wind is a good film. Outdated, but it's good. Being said, everything on it seems necessary for the whole experience. Not the best or most entertaining three hours long-plus film I've watched, since that it varies from extremely good to very bad and melodramatic moments. Very inconsistent, but again, mostly good. And it's impossible to not consider how well made and big this film is, and then consider the age it was done(1939!). It basically did open the doors for the other successful 'epic' films that would come, due to it thunderous success(a film that big in 1939 would obviously make success).
What most surprised me was the dark tone of the film, I am certainly it bothered some prudes in the age. Treason and tragedies makes it looks like the film in the poster, which clearly suggests that it's a dull romance film. It does a good work picturing the horrors of war and how it changes people, mostly for bad. There is about a hour and a half passing through the war.
The cinematography is nothing less than excellent, but outdated, since that some angles aren't even used anymore. The special effects and the non-stop soundtrack bothered me as well,but not as much as the stage- like exaggerated acting, which was common in the 30s I suppose, but for now it's pretty ridiculous and outdated.
Well, I haven't much more to say about this film. If you are facing nothing to do so this film will fits well for you. Though if you are bored and wants something dynamic don't even try this film. It's length is the worst part about this film, even more for an audience that can't stand films that are slowly paced than The Avengers(2012) nowadays. But I'm sure that most film lovers really like this film, so if you want something mainstream but totally out of the parameters, check it out. 8.3/10
