Continuity

Rating: 7/10 (2 July 2006)

In the first scene when Melanie is introduced to Scarlett again by Ashley, Melanie is wearing a dove gray and white lace costume, an understatement to the more flamboyant Sarlett. She is also wearing straw bonnet with a dark peach velvet ribbon.
In a subsequent scene between Melanie and Ashley where they are discussing Melanie's joining the family and the fleeting beauty of the southern way of life and, if war comes, it will not matter to their commitment to each other. This is a touching scene; one of a deeper understanding than the superficial one experienced by Scarlett and Ashely.
Melanie and her betrothed are standing in front of a curtained window facing each other. The window overlooks the gardens. This is one of the most private moments in the whole movie and quite a contrast to the rest of the movie.
Melanie is wearing the same dove gray and white lace costume a straw bonnet with a light maroon gross-grained ribbon.
