Introduction of the Epic

Rating: 10/10 (17 November 2007)

This is perhaps the most classic movie ever made!! "Gone with the Wind" is always on every major critic's list of top ten movies in the history of American movie making!! So much of this film became an introduction to an onslaught of numerous elements of creativity to the American cinema!! "Gone With The Wind" was one the first recognizable color films in Hollywood!! Clark Gable's parting goodbye of "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn" spurred on a nefarious notoriety which correlated to a very real aspect of candid expression!! This quote by Clark Gable has been voted by this website as the most classic line in the history of all movies ever made!! This ending line of his was considered very dare devil back in 1939!! By today's standards, of course, this seems ridiculous!! "Gone with the Wind" became a legendary favorite with the movie audience immediately, and it has been an all-time classic ever since!! The epic tale of Sherman's march into Atlanta at the end of the Civil War sparked a precarious nostalgia with the average American in 1939!! Scarlett O'Hara (played by Vivian Leigh) was a fickle and self serving Dixie maiden with a comical resilience!! Clark Gable was the straight forward southern gentleman who had to piece everything together!! Olivia De Havolind played Melanie, the bastion of hope for the faltering south. Lesile Howard played Ashley, Scarlett's true love!! Ashley was the man with whom Scarlett was fixated on!! Such a tale of morose, and flippant, intangibles, became a dramatic aspect to this movie!! This innovative genre easily garnered a positively peculiar camaraderie with the movie audience!! Margaret Mitchell's novel acquired a new found fascination with the American people when it got presented as this spectacular extravaganza of a motion picture!! "Gone with the Wind" won for best picture in 1939!! I have not seen "Gone With The Wind" in quite some time now, but, I did enjoy the film the last time I viewed it. The cast, the costuming, and the classic lines to this film are all first rate!! If you are interested in seeing one of the all time flicks in movie history, than, it is an absolutely must for you to see this film!!
