Rhett Butler : Please don't go on with this, Leave us some dignity to remember out of our marriage. Spare us this last. Scarlett : This last? Oh Rhett, do listen to me, I must have loved you for years, only I was such a stupid fool, I didn't know it. Please believe me, you must care! Melly said you did. Rhett Butler : I believe you.

If you'd only met me half way, even when I came back from London. Scarlett : I was so glad to see you. I was, Rhett, but you were so nasty. Rhett Butler : And then when you were sick, it was all my fault... I hoped against hope that you'd call for me, but you didn't. Scarlett : I wanted you. I wanted you desperately but I didn't think you wanted me. Rhett Butler : It seems we've been at cross purposes, doesn't it? But it's no use now.

As long as there was Bonnie, there was a chance that we might be happy. I liked to think that Bonnie was you, a little girl again, before the war, and poverty had done things to you. She was so like you, and I could pet her, and spoil her, as I wanted to spoil you. But when she went, she took everything. Scarlett : Oh, Rhett, Rhett please don't say that. I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry for everything. Rhett Butler : My darling, you're such a child. You think that by saying, "I'm sorry," all the past can be corrected. Here, take my handkerchief.

And if a bullet gets me, so help me, I'll laugh at myself for being an idiot. There's one thing I do know... and that is that I love you, Scarlett. In spite of you and me and the whole silly world going to pieces around us, I love you. Because we're alike. Bad lots, both of us. Selfish and shrewd.

[she slaps him] Frankly my dear, Rhett Butler's put-down is greatest of all - Telegraph Frankly my dear, Rhett Butler's put-down is greatest of all Margaret Mitchell triumphs over William Shakespeare and Jane Austen for the best literary put-down Clark Gable as Rhett Butler in Gone With the Wind, 1939 By Telegraph Reporters 10:16AM BST 02 Jun 2014 Margaret Mitchell, the author of Gone With The Wind, has been named as the queen of the literary put-down in a poll.

Rhett Butler’s phrase “My dear, I don’t give a damn’’ — which was altered in the film to the more famous “Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn’’ — picked up the most votes. In second place is Oscar Wilde’s line written for Lady Bracknell in The Importance Of Being Earnest: “To lose one parent, Mr Worthing, may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness.’’ Shakespeare was an early master of the put-down, taking eighth place in the poll with: “The tartness of his face sours ripe grapes’’, spoken by Menenius in Coriolanus. The poll, which surveyed 2,000 adults, was commissioned by the UKTV channel Drama and also featured lines from Jane Austen, Agatha Christie, Ernest Hemingway and Terry Pratchett.

It’s clear that a great put-down is as memorable as a budding romance or a tragic ending when it comes to enduring literature.’’ Are these the top 10 greatest put-downs in literature? 1. "My dear, I don't give a damn." - Gone With The Wind, Margaret Mitchell - (Character: Rhett Butler) 2. "To lose one parent may be regarded as a misfortune, Mr Worthing, to lose both looks like carelessness" - The Importance Of Being Earnest, Oscar Wilde - (Character: Lady Bracknell) 3. "May your genitals sprout wings and fly away." - Small Gods, Terry Pratchett - (Character: Om - the tortoise) 4. "If you will forgive me for being personal, I do not like your face." - Murder On The Orient Express, Agatha Christie - (Character: Hercule Poirot) 5. "She is tolerable; but not handsome enough to tempt me" - Pride And Prejudice, Jane Austen - (Character: Mr Darcy) 6.

"You are the last man in the world I could ever be prevailed upon to marry." - Pride And Prejudice, Jane Austen - (Character: Elizabeth Bennett) 7. "If looks could kill, you'd soon find out that yours couldn't." - After Claude, Iris Owens - (Character: Harriet) 8. "The tartness of his face sours ripe grapes." - Coriolanus, William Shakespeare - (Character: Menenius) 9. "The simplicity of your character makes you exquisitely incomprehensible to me." - The Importance Of being Earnest, Oscar Wilde - (Character: Gwendolen) 10. "I misjudged you... You're not a moron. You're only a case of arrested development." - The Sun Also Rises, Ernest Hemingway - (Character: Harvey Stone) Greatest Film Misquotes Greatest Film Misquotes Greatest Movie Misquotes (Part 2) Greatest Movie Mis-Quotes: Some of the most classic film lines or scenes are really only legendary and/or apocryphal, or they are merely movie misquotes, but after many years of repetition and being misquoted in subsequent films, they have become part of the filmgoing public's consciousness.

Many of these examples are film quotes that were either commonly attributed wrongly, or in fact were never actually spoken. The top 10 most misquoted film lines are marked with an icon Rhett Butler's (Clark Gable) scandalous, swear-word farewell to Scarlett (Vivien Leigh) in Gone With the Wind (1939) did not include Scarlett's name. It was: "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn." (long version) It was NOT: "Frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn." The misquote was heard in Clue (1985), when Miss Scarlet (Lesley Ann Warren) begged Wadsworth (Tim Curry) to forgive her for trying to shoot him: Scarlet: "Wadsworth.

Don't hate me for trying to shoot you." Wadsworth: "Frankly, Scarlet, I don't give a damn." Play clip from Clue (1985): And in The Mask (1994), the Mask/Stanley Ipkiss (Jim Carrey) spoofed the line (along with other semi-familiar lines) after being shot: - "Tell Scarlett I do give a damn." Play clip from The Mask (1994): The other lines were referential: - "Hold me closer, Ed." Flo (Esther Muir): "I want to be near you. I want you to hold me. Hold me closer! Closer! Closer!" Dr. Hackenbush (Groucho Marx): "If I hold you any closer, I'll be in back of ya!" Referencing both The Wizard of Oz (1939) and Old Yeller (1957). - "Tell Tiny Tim I won't be comin' home this Christmas." Referencing A Christmas Carol.

- "Thank you, You love me, you really love me." This line misquoted the end of Sally Field's Oscar acceptance speech in 1985 for her performance in Places in the Heart (1984): "...The first time, I didn't feel it, but this time I feel it, and I can't deny the fact that you like me, right now. You like me!" Play end of Sally Field's speech: Contrary to popular opinion, Gone With the Wind (1939) was not the first use of the word 'damn' in a film. It reportedly was said a few times in Glorifying the American Girl (1929) and in Pygmalion (1938, UK). Also, the phrase "March and sweat the whole damned day" appeared on a dialogue card in the silent epic war film The Big Parade (1925) . In Only Angels Have Wings (1939) , Cary Grant said the name 'Judy' numerous times to costar Rita Hayworth (playing a character named Judith McPherson), such as: "Hello, Judy" - but never repeated her name in rapid succession.

"Helly, Judy." Play clip from Only Angels Have Wings (1939) : "Judy...Judy...Judy" - was falsely attributed to Cary Grant. Cary Grant vaguely recalled that at a party he attended, someone introduced Judy Garland by saying, "Judy, Judy, Judy" and the phrase was attributed to him. A 1960 New Yorker ad for several Judy Garland albums ("Judy! Judy! Judy!") reinforced the incorrect quote.

The most beloved family film, The Wizard of Oz (1939) has had problems with one of its most famous lines spoken by Judy Garland (as Dorothy Gale) to her dog Toto: "Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore." Play clip from The Wizard of Oz (1939) : It's generally misquoted as: "Toto, I've got a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore" or "I don't think we're in Kansas anymore, Toto." A misquote was heard in Honey, I Shrunk the Kids (1989), when the two Szalinski siblings, Amy (Amy O'Neill) and Nick (Robert Oliveri) realized that they had been miniaturized and trapped in a plastic garbage bag in their backyard: Amy Szalinski: "I don't think we're in Kansas anymore, Toto." Nick Szalinski: "I don't think we're in the food chain anymore, Dorothy." Play clip from Honey, I Shrunk the Kids (1989): Quite often, an actual quote has been adapted or abbreviated.

This original lengthy line was from Knute Rockne: All-American (1940) , spoken by team coach Knute Rockne (Pat O'Brien) as a pep-talk to his losing team during half-time: "And the last thing he said to me, 'Rock,' he said, 'sometime when the team is up against it and the breaks are beating the boys, tell them to go out there with all they got and win just one for the Gipper." Play clip from Knute Rockne: All-American (1940) : He was recalling what his most famous player, George Gipp (portrayed by Ronald Reagan), had said earlier in the film: "Ask 'em to go in there with all they've got, win just one for the Gipper." It has often been stated simply as: "Win one for the Gipper," or "Win this one for the Gipper." George Gipp was a real-life football star who died young of pneumonia and provided an inspiring anecdote to his coach.

The last line of the film noirish detective story The Maltese Falcon (1941) was a two-line conversation between Police Sergeant Tom Polhaus (Ward Bond) and Sam Spade (Humphrey Bogart): - "It's heavy. What is it?" - "The uh, stuff that dreams are made of." - "Huh?" Play clip from The Maltese Falcon (1941) : The actual final word of the film was the sergeant's puzzled response, "Huh?" The unusual reference paraphrased Prospero's speech in Act IV of Shakespeare's The Tempest, although it was a misquote of: "We are such stuff as dreams are made on" (NOT "made of"). "Play it again, Sam" - was a line never spoken by either Ingrid Bergman or Humphrey Bogart in Casablanca (1942) to Sam (Dooley Wilson), the nightclub pianist and reluctant performer of the sentimental song 'As Time Goes By' (written by Herman Hupfeld).

When "Play It Again Sam" became the title of a Woody Allen comedy Play It Again, Sam (1972) that, in part, spoofed the classic 1942 film, the misquote was further reinforced. Variations on the line were spoken, however, by both leads in the 1942 film: Ingrid Bergman (as Ilsa Lund) requested: "Play it once, Sam, for old time's sake...Play it, Sam. Play 'As Time Goes By'." I Want Candy (2007) - "Well, play it again, Sam." - "OK. I will...That was a misquote from Casablanca, by the way. I don't know if I can look at you." Play clip from I Want Candy (2007): (excerpt) In Casablanca (1942) , Humphrey Bogart never said: "Drop the gun, Louis." However, he did gave the following warning: "Not so fast, Louis. Nobody is gonna be arrested.

Not for a while yet." Play clip from Casablanca (1942) : The last line of Casablanca (1942) is also often misquoted (and the name Louis, pronounced 'Louie' (in French), is often mis-spelled as Louie) - the correct line, spoken by Humphrey Bogart, is: "Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship." Play clip from Casablanca (1942) : It is often mis-stated as: "This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship," or "I think this is the start of a beautiful friendship." One of the most oft-quoted lines in cinema history was in director John Huston's The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948) : "Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinkin' badges!" (short) (long) It has often been misquoted or paraphrased, notably in director Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles (1974) , spoken by a Mexican bandit (Rick Garcia) as: "Badges?

We don't need no stinkin' badges!" Play clip from Blazing Saddles (1974) : It was also misquoted in: The Ninth Configuration (1980) Manolo (Nick Corri): "Don't show me your badges, we don't know nothing about no stinking badges." "Weird Al" Yankovic's UHF (1989): Animal Deliveryman (Cliff Stephens): "Well, let's see. I got one aardvark, one flamingo, four porcupines, two armadillos, three badgers..." Raul Hernandez (Trinidad Silva): "Badgers??? Badgers??? We don't need no steenkin' badgers!" Play clip from UHF (1989): Troop Beverly Hills (1989): (regarding the patches of the Wilderness Girls Troop) Rosa the Maid (Shelley Morrison): "Patches? We don't need no stinkin' patches." The 1935 novel by B. Traven consisted of the following similar dialogue, with some Spanish obscenities thrown in: "All right, "Curtain shouted back.

"If you are the police, where are your badges? Let's see them." "Badges, to god-damned hell with badges! We have no badges. In fact, we don't need badges. I don't have to show you any stinking badges, you god-damned cabrón and ching' tu madre! Come out there from that s--t-hole of yours. I have to speak to you." The following popular catchphrase has multiple origins, and probably goes way back. It was first heard in the movies in Otto Preminger's film-noir Fallen Angel (1945), and then was famously uttered by Bette Davis (as Rose Moline) in Beyond the Forest (1949) . Eric Stanton (Dana Andrews): "What a dump!" June Mills (Alice Faye): "It isn't so bad." Play clip from Fallen Angel (1945): Rose Moline (Bette Davis): "What a dump!" Play clip from Beyond the Forest (1949) : It was not popularized until heard in the opening scene of the 1961 Edward Albee play, upon which the highly-acclaimed film Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

(1966) was based. In the film, the exact same line was uttered by actress Elizabeth Taylor (as 52 year-old wife Martha) who then berated her professor-husband Richard Burton (as George) for not remembering the film the line was from: "...What's it from, for Christ's sake?...some damn Bette Davis picture, some god-damned Warner Bros epic." Play clip from Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966) : Actor John Derek (Bo Derek's future husband) in his first major film role (as young Italian hoodlum Nick Romano in the Chicago slums, who was accused of murdering a cop) stated the following line in the classic Humphrey Bogart film noir Knock on Any Door (1949), directed by Nicholas Ray. He told his girlfriend Emma (Allene Roberts) that his motto or credo in life remained as: "What I used to say still goes.

Live fast, die young and have a good-looking corpse!" Play clip from Knock on Any Door (1949): This saying, although wrongly modified as “Live fast, die young and leave a good-looking corpse!” has often been wrongly attributed to actor James Dean - a quintessential symbol of disenfranchised youth. The last part of the phrase is fairly original (derived from the text of the 1947 novel written by the African-American novelist Willard Motley), while the phrase "live fast and die young" dates back to the early 1900s. In the classic gangster film White Heat (1949) , James Cagney's triumphant shout atop a oil tank before blasting himself into oblivion has often been erroneously quoted. The actual line was: "Made it, Ma. Top of the world!" Play clip from White Heat (1949) : The line was not: "Top of the world, Ma!" Bette Davis' most famous film line as aging, jealous stage actress Margo Channing in All About Eve (1950) was delivered after she took another stiff drink during a birthday party.

She walked over to the staircase, turned, and told everyone to buckle up their airplane seatbelts (cars didn't have seatbelts in the 1950s!): "Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night." The line has often been misquoted, substituting the word "ride" for "night." "Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy ride." "I'm ready for my closeup, Mr. DeMille" has often been presented as Norma Desmond's (Gloria Swanson) line, but it's actually a misquote of her original closing in Sunset Boulevard (1950) : "All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my closeup." Play clip from Sunset Boulevard (1950) : The line was misquoted in Mrs. Doubtfire (1993) by Daniel Hillard/Mrs.

Doubtfire (Robin Williams), while speaking to Frank (Harvey Fierstein) as he/she was made up: - "I feel like Gloria Swanson." - "You look like her mother." - "I'm ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille." Play clip from Mrs. Doubtfire (1993): In Disney's animated classic Alice in Wonderland (1951), the Cheshire Cat (voice of Sterling Holloway) has often been thought to say, "We're all mad here." The actual lines in the film were: - "Of course, he's mad too." - "But I don't want to go among mad people." - "Oh, you can't help that. Most everyone's mad here. You may have noticed that I'm not all there myself." Play clip from Alice in Wonderland (1951): In Lewis Carroll's original novel, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland published in 1865 however, the extended quote was: "But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked. "Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "We're all mad here. I'm mad.

You're mad." "How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice. "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here." One of the more interesting misquotes was attributed to actor Tony Curtis. In many tributes and obituaries when he died in the year 2010, he was quoted as having said the following line with a heavy New York accent: "Yonder lies the castle of my father." "Yonda (or yonda) lies da castle of my fodder (faddah, fodda, or fadda)." Although many sources claim that Curtis said the line in The Prince Who Was a Thief (1951) and/or The Black Shield of Falworth (1954), Curtis didn't utter the above quote in either film. However, a variation on the line was spoken by Curtis in Son of Ali Baba (1952): "This is my father’s palace.

And yonder lies the Valley of the Sun." Play clip from Son of Ali Baba (1952): Director Vincente Minnelli's melodramatic Tea and Sympathy (1956) began as playwright Robert Anderson's stage play, debuting in NYC in 1953. The controversial film was about bullying and social prejudice against an "unmanly" prep school student named Tom Lee (John Kerr), who was shown understanding and friendship by Laura Reynolds (Deborah Kerr) - the lonely, frustrated wife of Bill (Leif Erickson), the school's coach.

The film's title came from his description of his wife's role at the school, when she completed his sentence: - "All you're supposed to do is once in a while give the boys a little tea..." - "...tea and sympathy." Play clip from Tea and Sympathy (1956): The Rolling Stones 1969 song Let It Bleed, written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards (and performed by Mick Jagger) modified the line in one of the verses: She said, "My breasts, they will always be open Baby, you can rest your weary head right on me And there will always be a space in my parking lot When you need a little coke and sympathy." Play clip of Let It Bleed (1969): The film, bowdlerized with a tacked-on ending, should have ended with Laura's advice to Tom: "Years from now, when you talk about this, and you will, be kind." Play clip from Tea and Sympathy (1956): There were a few variations on the famous James Bond 007 drink preference quote: "...shaken, not stirred," first heard uttered by the Bond character (Sean Connery) himself in Goldfinger (

1964) : "...Just a drink.

A martini, shaken, not stirred." Play clip from Goldfinger (1964) : Villain Dr. Julius No (Joseph Wiseman) offered the familiar drink to Bond in the earlier first Bond film Dr. No (1962) - with the words: "A medium dry martini, lemon peel. Shaken, not stirred." Play clip from Dr. No (1962) : In You Only Live Twice (1967) , the drink instructions were reversed, with Bond politely agreeing with his host Henderson (Charles Gray) and accepting the altered drink: "Perfect!" "Oh, that's, uh, stirred, not shaken. That was right, wasn't it?" In the UK film Alfie (1966), Michael Caine (as the title character) said: "Not many people know this." One of his many trivia books was titled, "Not Many People Know That." In the film, he never said: "(And) not a lot of people know that." The tagline from Cool Hand Luke (1967) has often been modified from its original.

In its most famous utterance, the Captain (Strother Martin) said to recalcitrant chain gang prisoner Luke (Paul Newman): "What we've got here is (pause) failure to communicate." Play clip from Cool Hand Luke (1967) : (Captain's line) It was NOT: "What we have here is a failure to communicate" (although the line with the word 'a' was later sarcastically repeated by character Luke to the prison warden before he was shot) -- as: "What we got here is a failure to communicate." Play clip from Cool Hand Luke (1967) : (Luke's line) In The Graduate (1967) , Benjamin Braddock (Dustin Hoffman) made a statement and then asked a question of the Mrs. Robinson (Anne Bancroft) character. As he naively asked his question, the camera shot under her upraised leg, framing Ben underneath: - "For God's sake, Mrs. Robinson, here we are, you've got me into your house. You give me a drink. You put on music, now you start opening up your personal life to me and tell me your husband won't be home for hours... Mrs.

Robinson, you're trying to seduce me. Aren't you?" Play clip from The Graduate (1967) : (short version) (long version) He did NOT ask either of these two questions: "Mrs. Robinson, are you trying to seduce me?" or "Are you trying to seduce me, Mrs. Robinson?" Shortly later upstairs in her home, Mrs. Robinson went further and asked Benjamin: "Would you like me to seduce you?...Is that what you're trying to tell me?" Play clip from The Graduate (1967) : The misquote (in a number of variations) was heard in, for example, The Ladies Man (2000), Van Wilder (2002), and A Walk to Remember (2002). "Mrs. Robinson, are you trying to seduce me?" (The Ladies Man (2000)) Ms. Doris Haver (Cynthia Fancher): "Mr. Wilder, are you trying to seduce me?" Van Wilder (Ryan Reynolds): "Who, me? No!

Hey, hey..." (Van Wilder (2002)) In Planet of the Apes (1968) , captured astronaut George Taylor (Charlton Heston) screamed: "Take your stinkin' paws off me, you damn dirty ape!"

Who said that?" 110: Clark Gable - explain xkcd 110: Clark Gable [ edit ] Explanation "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn", is the signature catchphrase from the 1939 movie Gone With The Wind (film) , which starred Clark Gable (mentioned in the comic title) and Vivien Leigh . The phrase is spoken by Gable's character Rhett Butler as his last line in answer to Leigh as Scarlett O'Hara 's question "Where shall I go? What shall I do?". The response indicates that Butler is no longer interested in O'Hara.

This disinterest, and the mention of the word "damn", which was considered profanity at the time of releasing the film, led to the line being voted the #1 movie line of all time in 1995's American Film Institute ranking. Randall suggests that the line as written was not supposed to contain profanity, but the actor, Gable, had Tourette's Syndrome , which is a neurological condition that is stereotypically characterized by bouts of random uncontrollable cursing. The title text contains a more stereotypical Tourette's Syndrome outburst of several profanities shouted in a row mid-sentence. [ edit ] Transcript [Famous image of Gone with the Wind with Rhett Butler (Clark Gable) kissing Scarlett O'Hara (Vivien Leigh).] The line was actually supposed to be "Frankly, my dear, I couldn't care less." It's just that Clark Gable had Tourette's. What is the greatest movie line of all time? Find out here...

| Daily Star Published 27th March 2016 PH TOP: Clark Gable's iconic 'I don't give a damn' line in Gone With The Wind won the vote The words uttered by Clark Gable in Gone With The Wind have topped a poll of leading Hollywood professionals. More than 1,600 producers, directors, screenwriters, actors, agents, cinematographers and publicists were asked by the Hollywood Reporter to take part in the biggest vote of its kind. But the No.1 line, spoken by the character Rhett Butler, almost never made it into the final cut as producers thought “damn” was too risky for the big screen. It stayed in and became one of the most famous movie quotes of all time. The line pipped Humphrey Bogart’s legendary quip, “Here’s looking at you, kid” from the flick Casablanca.

Here is the top ten in full… GETTY INFLUENTIAL: The Godfather is considered one of the best films of all time "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn…" Gone With The Wind, 1939 TWO months before its release, producers caused consternation by demanding the word “damn” be dropped. Writers hurriedly came up with 22 alternatives, from the utterly unmemorable: “It’s all the same to me” to the outright absurd: “Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a whoop.” "Here's looking at you, kid" Casablanca, 1942 WITH classic one-liners, it isn’t only what you say but the way you say it. It’s a good job that where you say it from doesn’t matter so much because Humphrey Bogart was two inches shorter than co-star Ingrid Bergman and had to stand on blocks in some scenes to appear taller.

On-set wags at the time joked he should have said: “Here’s looking up at you, kid.” "You're gonna need a bigger boat" Jaws, 1975 LEGACY: Casablanca quotes feature at numbers 15, 16 and 52 in the experts’ all-time list "I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse" The Godfather, 1972 SCREENWRITER Mario Puzo and director Francis Ford Coppola were on opposite US coasts – one in New York, the other in San Francisco – when they co-wrote the script. They sent new drafts to each other via the post. "Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine" Casablanca, 1942 ONE of two movies with two one-liners in the top ten (the other is The Wizard Of Oz). Casablanca quotes also feature at numbers 15, 16 and 52 in the experts’ all-time list.

"You talkin' to me?" THE FIRST RULE: Brad Pitt and Edward Norton in 1999's Fight Club "There's no place like home" The Wizard of Oz, 1939 THE film adaptation took many liberties with L. Frank Baum’s 1900 fantasy novel in which, for example, Dorothy’s slippers were silver, not ruby. The film-makers did, however, take this jewel straight from the book. "The first rule of Fight Club is: You do not talk about Fight Club" Fight Club, 1999 ACTORS Edward Norton and Brad Pitt not only took lessons in boxing and Taekwondo to try to ensure authenticity, Pitt even visited a dentist to have his front tooth chipped.

Could not subscribe, try again laterInvalid Email The end of Gone With The Wind was nearly so different, a recently found alternative script reveals. The classic American Civil War movie has Rhett Butler walking out on lover Scarlett O’Hara and telling her: “Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.” Scarlett was hailed as a strong, independent woman for her famous last line: “After all, tomorrow is another day”, as she vows to carry on. But another “more traditional” ending to the 1939 film, starring Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable , has emerged in a rare script.

Film buffs are likely to bid up to $5,000 (£3,000) for the 251-page script when it is auctioned online next month. In the alternate ending she desperately cries out: “Rhett!... Rhett!... You’ll come back. You’ll come back... I know you will!” Margaret Barrett, of Heritage Auctions, which is selling it, said: “In the original Scarlett comes across as a determined woman who will survive with or without Rhett, but this alternative ending is much more traditional. “Her life has been ruined because her man left her. Scarlett is such an enduring character because she is so independent. She was way ahead of her time in terms of how women were viewed.” Video Loading Click to play Tap to play The video will start in 8Cancel Play now Leigh won an Oscar for playing Scarlett and the film took £230million at the box office, the highest grossing film of its time. The other script is believed to have belonged to a production member and was eventually passed to a film fan who ran a book shop.

Rhett Butler : So, you see I shall have to marry you. Scarlett : I've never heard of such bad taste. Rhett Butler : Would you be more convinced if I fell to my knees? Scarlett : Turn me loose, you varmint, and get out of here! Rhett Butler : Forgive me for startling you with the impetuosity of my sentiments, my dear Scarlett. I mean, my dear Mrs. Kennedy. But it cannot have escaped your notice that for some time past the friendship I have felt for you has ripened into a deeper feeling. A feeling more beautiful, more pure, more sacred. Dare I name it? Can it be love? Scarlett : Get up off your knees!

I don't like your common jokes! Rhett Butler : This is an honorable proposal of marriage made at what I consider a most opportune moment. I can't go all my life waiting to catch you between husbands. Scarlett : You're coarse, and you're conceited. And I think this conversation has gone far enough. Mammy : [about Belle Watling] Who dat? I ain't never seen hair that color before. Do you know a dyed haired woman? Scarlett : Wish I knew that one. She'd get my money for me! Scarlett : Rhett, how could you do this to me, and why should you go now that, after it's all over and I need you, why? Why? Rhett Butler : Why? Maybe it's because I've always had a weakness for lost causes, once they're really lost. Or maybe, maybe I'm ashamed of myself. Who knows? Scarlett : [Rhett has heard Scarlett's and Ashley's fight] and Sir you should have made your presence known Rhett Butler : In the middle of that beautiful love scene. Now that wouldn't have been very tactful would it? Scarlett : Oh! You sir are no gentlemen.

Rhett Butler : And you Ms. are no lady. [She is shocked and hurt] Rhett Butler : Don't think I hold that against you. Ladies have never held any appeal for me [repeated line] Rhett Butler : The right moment everyday. Scarlett : You're a conceited, black heated vulture and I don't know I let you come in and see me. Rhett Butler : I'll tell you why, Scarlett. The war can't last much longer. Scarlett : Really, Rhett. Why? Rhett Butler : There's a little battle going on right now. Scarlett : Why don't you just say it, you coward? You're afraid to marry me. You'd rather live with that silly little fool who can't open her mouth except to say, "yes" and "no" and raise a passle of mealy-mouthed brats just like her! Ashley : You mustn't say things like that about Melanie. Scarlett : Who are you to tell me I mustn't! You led me on! You made me believe you wanted to marry me! Ashley : Now, Scarlett be fair. I never at any time... Scarlett : You did!

It's true! You did! I'll hate till I die! I can't think of anything bad enough to call you! [she slaps him] Rhett Butler : Open your eyes and look at me. No, I don't think I will kiss you. Although you need kissing badly. That's what's wrong with you. You should be kissed and often and by someone who knows how. Scarlett : And I suppose you think you're the proper person. Rhett Butler : I might be... if the right moment ever came. Scarlett : You're a conceited, blackhearted varmint Rhett Butler. I don't know why I let come and see me. Rhett Butler : I'll tell you why, Scarlett. Because I'm the only man over sixteen and under sixty who's around to show you a good time. Scarlett : You low-down, cowardly, nasty thing you! They were right! Everybody was right! You - You aren't a gentleman. Rhett Butler : A minor point at such a moment. Here, if anyone lays a hand on that Nag shoot him but don't make a mistake and shoot the Nag. Scarlett : Go on! I want you to go!

I hope a cannonball lands slap on you! I hope your blown into a million pieces! I... Rhett Butler : Nevermind the rest. I follow your general idea. And when I'm dead on the altar of my country I hope your conscience hurts you. Goodbye, Scarlett. Rhett Butler : You can come to my hanging and I'll remember you in my will. Scarlett : The only thing I'm afraid of is they won't hang you in time to pay the taxes on Tara! Scarlett : I can't let Tara go. I won't let it go while there's a breath left in my body. Scarlett : How do I look?
