GONE WITH THE WIND
GONE WITH THE WIND is a historical epic film of the War Between the States and Reconstruction starring Clark Gable, Vivien Leigh, Leslie Howard and a host of other stars. Released in 1939, the film made box office history. It is the highest grossing film of all time (adjusted for inflation). The film received eight Academy Awards including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, Best Screenplay, and Best Supporting Actress (for Hattie McDaniel - the first time a black had been nominated and honored)
The film is historically romantic in its treatment of many aspects of the era, including a decidedly racist view of slavery and the portrayal of the black characters. Never-the-less, it gives a fascinating view of the American South of long ago.
The film is divided into two halves. Part I deals with Scarlett O'Hara before and during the war. Part II continues the story line after the war and Scarlett's tumultuous relationship with Rhett Butler. Each part has corresponding pages in this site, with a plot summary and a scene-by-scene outline, both with pictures. The site is arranged so you can go from one page to another from any page.
