The greatest movie ever?

Rating: 10/10 (7 June 1999)

A headstrong southern belle wrecks the love of her life through the obsessive yearning for a married man at the time of the Civil War and Reconstruction.
Perhaps the greatest movie in history,though not the best. Vivien Leigh plays the role of a lifetime.She's magnificent.Clark Gable shows depths he'd never shown before.His Rhett Butler is a marvelous characterization.Hattie McDaniel as Mammy is wonderful and Olivia De Havilland gives a good performance as Melanie.The only disappointment in the cast is Leslie Howard.He turns in a pale performance and you can't understand that obsession Scarlett would have for him.He's a bore. The production is stupendous.With a running time of nearly 4 hours there's hardly dull spot.The color photography is magnificent.A masterpiece.
