Gone With The Wind.

Rating System(1is low/10 is high)

I believe that this movie deserved a 7 out of 10.

Not many children are named Scarlett. Why? Because of the history behind the name Scarlett. What kind of history do ya say? Perhaps a book and a movie titled Gone With The Wind will be helpful.:)  Now.. Who is Scarlett you say? She is Scarlett O'Hara, the main character in Gone With The Wind. She is played by Vivian Leigh who did an excellent job as portraying a strongly willed woman who knows what she wants and will do anything to get it. This film (Gone With The Wind) was directed by Victor Fleming and was released is 1939. Including inflation and all sales, this film is the number 1 money maker in history.

Why was it a number one money maker? Because this film had a group of very good actors such as Clark Gable as Rhett Butler, Olivia de Havilland as Melanie Wilkes and Leslie Howard as Ashley Wilkes.

I believe that this movie deserved a 10, but I only gave it a 7 because, though I loved all the twists and turns, I disliked that there wasn't a conclusion, the time, and the fact that it was made in 1939 using technicolor. There isn't anything wrong with technicolor, I just prefer the new technology.

As I look back, I liked the way that the director had symbols in his movie and a message such as let us not go to war. (The time period was pre-WWII) I also liked that it created questions.

I would definitely watch this movie again and again.
