David O. Selznick wanted Gone with the Wind to be somehow more than a movie, a film that would broaden the very idea of what a film could be and do and look like. In many respects he got what he worked so hard to achieve in this 1939 epic (and all-time box-office champ in terms of tickets sold), and in some respects he fell far short of the goal. While the first half of this Civil War drama is taut and suspenseful and nostalgic, the second is ramshackle and arbitrary. But there's no question that the film is an enormous achievement in terms of its every resource--art direction, color, sound, cinematography--being pushed to new limits for the greater glory of telling an American story as fully as possible. Vivien Leigh is still magnificently narcissistic, Olivia de Havilland angelic and lovely, Leslie Howard reckless and aristocratic. As for Clark Gable: we're talking one of the most vital, masculine performances ever committed to film. --Tom Keogh

 EXCELLENT!!! August 31, 2010
Juan Herrera Carranza
One of the most important movies it's now a very huge and georgeus prsentation on DVD. I'm from Perú and this DVD has Spanish lenaguage and subtitles, including some extras contents.
I hope this kind of edition go on production including a lot of extras, and spanish lenguage and subtitles for latin american people.
 Awful, twice over! August 28, 2010

I bought this for a Mother's Day gift--TWICE.
My mom reported that most of the discs didn't work, so I returned it for a new set. Amazingly, the new replacement set didn't work either! I felt bad enough for Mom that I had to write this review and warn others.
I finally learned my lesson: Take Mom out for dinner and a play instead of wasting time and money on this piece of....er, junk.

Gone with the Wind was as good as I remember it from my youth. The color was beautiful, film clear, and of course, the story memorable. Thank you for making this wonderful product into a Blu-ray movie. My adult daughter saw it for the first time with my husband and myself and she was mesmerized. Thanks again, for a great product.

I enyoyed the DVD as much as I did when I saw it in a Theater in the spring of 1970. Wonderful movie.
Blu-ray is remarkable August 18, 2010

This is one of the best movies ever made. We know that. We know its history. But for years watching its strange, blurry video/DVD was just what we had grown accustomed to if we wanted to watch it. But now, blu-ray has brought us what seems to be, at least in my opinion, a miracle. The quality of this blu-ray is frankly, my dear, astounding. And I don't use that word lightly. Aside from the cheesy melodramatic score that came with the times, the sheer picture quality is so sharp it's shocking. This is on HD. It looks like it could have been made yesterday. Which in my opinion is the most amazing thing of all. This was a time before Anne Frank had even bought her diary. Think of just how long ago 1939 was... then look at the picture quality. If you're looking to buy this movie in hopes of the blu-ray being the best quality possible, then you are on the right track and it may even surprise you. It's just that good.
As for the movie, well we all know how wonderful and detailed it is.
