Gone With The Wind is a Great Movie

Rating: 10/10 (17 February 2008)

This movie is one of the best movies of all time. It may lasts four hours, but the story is so engrossing that you actually lose track. Vivian Leigh is quite stunning as Scarlett. I would list her in the top 5 of the most beautiful sirens ever to grace the silver screen. It was the performance of a lifetime, and definitely deserved the Oscar for Best Actress. This movie may have been made in the late 30's, but it never gets old. It actually makes you feel bad for people of the South right after the Civil War. The desolation, the destitution. But you fall in love in Scarlett, not only because of her spunkiness and beauty, but her resolve, to carry on even when all seems lost. This is truly an epic in every sense of the word. It doesn't get much better than this. I would recommend this movie to history buffs, people who like love stories, and people who just like great movies. That is why I gave it a '10'.
