in case reverted: "Georgia, U.S., in 1861, (before the start of the American Civil War), Scarlett O'Hara lives with her family on a plantation named Tara. (Scarlett has two sisters). Two young men visit her, who want to dance with her at a barbecue. They talk about the possible war brewing between the Southern and Northern States. Scarlett stops them from talking about war, and instead talks about the barbecue at the home of her secret love, Ashley Wilkes. They tell her that there he will announce his engagement to wed Melanie Hamilton, his cousin.

The next day, at the  plantation named Twelve Oaks,  Scarlett flirts with and then argues with Ashley who insists he will wed Melanie. A guest, Rhett Butler heard and talks with her. Suddenly,  somebody announces that war has begun. The men rush to enlist.

Scarlett hurriedly marries Charles (Melanie's younger brother) before he leaves for war. Charles's dies in battle, so Scarlett went to Atlanta. At a charity bazaar, she talks with Rhett who earns money as a blockade runner supplying the Confederacy. She creates a scene by waltzing with Rhett, wearing her mourning attire.
