David O. Selznick wanted Gone with the Wind to besomehow 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

Plenty of Gone with the Wind for any fan although pretty sure they have an #? Anniversary addition out so might want to check that out first.

GWTW has always been my all-time favorite movie. Sound and visual qualities are awesome--I will never tire of watching it.

5 out of 5 stars If only my husband would watch this with me...   February 24, 2010

I probably watched this movie for the first time when I was a newborn. I was named for Ashley, not the best character but a good name, and my brother's namesake is Rhett. I have seen this movie probably a good 100 times and love it more each time. It isn't as good as the book but they never are. I love this movie, it is timeless. All the bonus features are a must if you are like me and have seen the movie enough times and are hungry for more. I love Olivia d'Havilland. She is an amazing Melanie and does great in the bonus footage. If you love the movie I recommend the book. In both you are swept to a time of hoop skirts and real values. I love it.
