Gone with the Wind--Glorification of Racist Traitors

Rating: Null/10 (1 July 2001)

Gone with the Wind the greatest? Please. Scarlett O'Hara was a simpering white girl who we are supposed to feel bad for. I watched the movie (once) and felt bad for the people unfortunate enough to be owned by her. The entire movie was a glorification of an evil and degenerate lifestyle (yes, folks, owning people as human chattel was evil and wrong). Gee, I wonder what everyone would say if they made a movie sympathetic to the Nazi regime. Heck, let's cry and "be moved" because Hitler didn't get his way in WWII. Wake up, people. Read Beloved if you want a true picture of a "time long gone."
