Gone With The Wind - The Margaret Mitchell Story
of Chivalry took its last bow... Here was the last ever to be seen of Knights and their Ladies Fair, of Master and of Slave... Look for it only in books, for it is no more than a dream remembered, a Civilization, gone with the wind.
Pure Hollywood! Pure Selznick! Pure schmultz! And a pure violation of author's vision.
However, despite Margret Mitchell's initial objections, her reaction to the film says it all. "I was overtaken by grandure. Although it was not scripted perfectly from my book, I believe the film will have a life of its very own..."
How true, how true...
