Just looking at that first screen test, you can tell that there is already chemistry between Vivien Leigh and Hattie McDaniel---both won well-deserved Oscars for their performances.
I cannot count the number of times I've viewed "GWTW." To this day, I cannot even think of any other actress in the role of Scarlet O'Hara - Leigh owned that role to such a degree that her portrayal is damned near sacred.
Well, Vivian Leigh was the perfect Scarlett (and the perfect Blanche DuBois), but I wouldn't regard the Academy Award as a measurement of excellence considering how few times in any given decade that award was given to the "best" anyone or anything.
The perfect pick and the smartest choice the people of GWTW ever made in their casting. Any other person as Scarlett would make my blood run cold. There's no one like dear sweet Vivien, God rest her. And Clark Gable, my oh my. What a handsome man he was. Why, my grandma says when my grandpa was young, he looked just like him. He's around 86 and there is some resemblence. Such a classic movie, and it will lives on in the hearts of others forever. Or at least in mine it will. As well the actors.
She left beauty, wherever she went. I'm almost certain that all of us peak in looks in our mid twenties, not just Viv. During a visit to the British troops in 1943 she contracted Tuberculosis, which of course took their toll. Her mental state cause horrible insomnia for most her older life causing physical changes. She always felt her looks were a handicap anyway, so it probably paved the way for getting those later great performances of Blanche Dubois, Karen stone, etc. vivien cared about her craft more than her face. A true actress, of un-equalled divine beauty, and we are all lucky to have had her.
+Anthony Hebisen She was still very beautiful when she played Blanche. I've seen only three of her movies and I think she was the most beautiful in That Hamilton Woman. I didn't finish it by the way. For some reason I couldn't stand watching Laurence Olivier.
Anthony Hebisen - Thank you, Anthony for putting such a human face on Vivien Leigh's health concerns. I hadn't known about the Tuberculosis which is a horrible disease especially in the 40's long before antibiotics - all they had were long rest (so-called) cures, and disfiguring operations to fight it. I also admired her movie performances the most touching for me, being Waterloo Bridge.
Cecilia Ellis Thank you for your sweet reply. Yes, it's true, tb in at that time was difficult to treat. She got well, but a reoccurrence in the 60's is what eventually took her life. By the 60's, tb was fizzling out. Vivien chose new age, younger doctors who really didn't have the experience to treat what the doctors a few generations before had to face. Perhaps if she truly sought out an experienced expert, she might have lived longer. I read all this in a book once. However, Viv , even when Ill, would still smoke, hardly slept, and just didn't rest.
Vivian Leigh also had what would have been known today as Bipolar Disorder. The only treatment back then was a crude form of Electroshock (electroconvulsive) Therapy (ECT). She would often come out of the hospital with burn marks on her head from it. It destroyed her personality and her marriage to Lawrence Olivier and added to her already deteriorating health. Knowing that just breaks my heart for her.
0:35 Ladies and Gentlemen... That is how acting should always be. I can't even describe.. She looks so in love, fearless and passionate. Her cat eyes...she could use every muscle, every inch of her face to express herself. Nobody can and will ever be able to compare.
She did marvelous in that scene with Ashley during her screen-tests. She was not held back during filming, in fact she tried desperately to redo what she had done in the screen-tests but she never could much to her dismay. Vivien Leigh is flawless as Scarlett as it is, but just imagine this scene in the movie if she was able to recreate what she did here. Pure magic!
I'll be forever glad this film won't be tarnished by remakes. Any other iteration of Scarlet would make me ill - Vivien is and always will be the one and only.
no one else on earth could have ever played scarlett o'hara but vivien leigh. even after 70 years i don't think anyone could even try to touch it. it is definitely the best performance by any actress in film history
George Cukor's direction shows in these tests. Vivien is playing the character so much more like the book here. I wish Cukor had directed the whole film, it would have been even better, if that's possible (:
Vivien Leigh's performance here is all the better when you think that she's acting with--and also kissing-- someone she may have only just met. I don't agree with earlier comments that Vivien lost her looks. I don't think she particularly tried to look younger than her actual age and I suspect there was less emphasis then on looking young and having a youthful body when you were no longer young. Nothing wrong with being mature and looking it. I was just thinking that I'm a year younger than Vivien was at the time of her death. 53, 54, not so old when you're there.
We have an unhealthy obsession with youth and beauty in these sad times. Especially in the United States. I personally find older people more attractive, but immature men and impressionable young women have a lot to do with the downfall of society.
There's also the toll her health issues would have taken on her looks. Edited to add: I don't mean that people shouldn't have health issues. Just that beauty can fade, for several reasons. Though frankly VL on a bad day is still better looking than the vast majority of us lol😂
@Atomicslid139 i think she was a great actress, and she was so darn good looking. You would have to be out of your mind to think anyone else could play Scarlett.
In these screen tests, it's more evident why Vivien was cast. She adds little facial flourishes and hand gestures that make the difference. David Selznik make the right choice!
Leslie Howard shuddered at the thought of being cast as Ashley, but he had to do it in order to co-produce Intermezzo: A Love Story (he had a keen interest in producing and directing.). He called Ashley Wilkes' character "weak and watery", and despised being dressed up and made to look "attractive". Hah! I love him for his self-deprecation, but he WAS damned attractive anyway! I'm in love with him (and alack! I'll never get to be with him!).
It trips me out that Vivian was British. She sure sounded like a true southern bell to me. Poor girl. Can you imagine having to wear all those huge dresses in the south in the 30's? She only made 25 grand for her role as Scarlett while Gable made 4 times that amount for half the effort. To me, she the most beautiful woman to ever live and she will always be Scarlett... 💞
She had well-documented bipolar disorder with wild erratic mood swings and deep depressions. Still, she won two Oscars and was a great actress. Many artists had or supposedly had bipolar disorder.
I thought everyone was perfectly cast! With the exception of Ashley Wilkes...I respect him as a person but I dont think he physically fit the part...he is the only person in the entire cast who I can say this about.Mammy, Scarlet, and Rhett were alll perfectly cast! Even the minor characters.(idk about ms. Pitty though...)but yes! Love love love this movie! Nobody else could ever play the role of Scarlett or Rhett those two especially were well-cast...almost on a scary how well case they were.
Amazing to see the screen test and the final product and how she refined the role. She is and was the only Scarlett O’Hara and that bitch could act has ass off💜
Vivian Leigh was able to do what other actresses could not, she could "become" Scarlett not simply pretend to be the character. Every cast member was perfect with the exception of Leslie Howard who I always felt was wrong for the part- not attractive or romantic enough IMO.
Paulette Goddard fitted more the personage of the Margaret Mitchell´s novel, Scarlet was supposed to be not very pretty, but with a powerful personality that would make men forget that she was not very pretty. - However, for a Hollywood Movie Great Production that description was absurdly unnecessary an restrictive, not to say that would surely would have cut down the Box Office revenue. Paulette would have won the Oscar with the role, the historical revenue would have been big, enormous; but just half of what it was with Vivian Leigh.
I never said that. she is affter al the most beautiful woman in teh whole world but her beautiful looks started to declined after she turned 30 something but you cannot deny she is the most beautiful woman on the planet. btw, she was not 28 she was born in 1913 and gone with wind came out in 1939, which make her barely 26. 25 when she was filming.
I know exactly what you mean!! And I think a woman like Scarlett O'Hara could possibly make me straight! LOL So beautiful and feminine...yet so strong!
@Hollywoodland, And in the book, Scarlett had a child by each of her three husbands; plot points the film dropped. By such "dramatic license," a film adaptation need not duplicate every element of its source work. Given that in Scarlett's milieu, nubile girls often married financially settled older men (as had Scarlett's own mother), it would be plausible that Scarlett -- e.g., bored with flirting with boys her own age -- would look to marry a sophisticated older, postgraduate heir Ashley.
Paulette Goddard didn't have the theatrical experience of Vivien, graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) in London. I think, led by Chaplin, she would have gotten the role of Scarlet. Goddard is perfect in the two films he did alongside the brilliant director actor of The Great Dictator and Modern Times. Curiously, she was afraid of being forgotten if she only worked with Chaplin, but it was with him that she remained unforgettable.
I wonder who was the lucky guy in the screentests. I believe Olivier attended. My father worked with him years later on The Entertainer. Vivian was ill.
In the paddock scene, we can see especially the high camp acting under the direction of George Cukor. If he directed the whole movie, we'd have the modern day equivalent of Ru Paul's drag race.
I know. she looked the most beautiful when she was in "Waterloo bridge" and " that Hamilton Lady" she is really the most beautiful woman and Gone with the wind made her extremely stressful and that is why she smoked constantly. Her looks then started to go downhill when she turned 30 something...which is real sad.
Of all the great stars who tested for this role, only Leigh possessed all of the physical and emotional qualities that this part required. For me, it was her extreme coquettishness and sense of selfishness that overrode all the others. Paulette Goddard did a superb screen test, but in the final analysis, Scarlett is a cold hearted bitch, and Vivian certainly qualifies.
@thoserubyslippers Well she did have consumption (TB), and I think she eventually died of it, so I would guess that yes, she had at least one physical flaw.
You are right about the age. She was around 25 when making this. Somewhere on here it said 28 so it stuck in my head but I have read books about her and that was the correct age. BTW Ashley was wonderful but never understood the appeal for her. Anyway love is blind.
calalilygirl you might be thinking 28 because at the end of The novel, Rhett asks “ how old are you my pet ?” And she replies “ 28”. It’s the second the last page of the book as he’s leaving her .
Cuabnta la leyenda que ni bien apareció Vivian, borró al resto de las aspirantes. ¿quién puede imarginar aScarlett con otro rostro y presencia que no sea la de ella?
Huh, that's interesting....I was unaware of that.I know he died defending his country in a carrier where the enemy mistook his plane for an important figures plane, so thats a cool little fact as well. But ya, agreed there.Ashley is DEFINATLY not my favorite character...nor Suellen.HA!
She actually held up pretty well til Gone With The Wind. She was about 28 and She pulled off looking like a young belle to me. But it seemed not long after this she started to age.
i dont think she had it if at all in her youth not at this point subtle signs mb but it was at least a decade later that it started really and she had shock treatment for it around the 60's
Even in their screentests, Vivien and hattie were Oscar calibre.
And they really were.
Just looking at that first screen test, you can tell that there is already chemistry between Vivien Leigh and Hattie McDaniel---both won well-deserved Oscars for their performances.
AMEN!!!!
Vivien & Hattie...one of Hollywood's great double-acts...they made this film...and deserved their Oscars...
Vivien Leigh was THE Scarlett O'Hara. As Margaret said "she's my scarlett"
She said so?
she is the most beautiful woman in the world ever lived on this planet!!!!
cupcake soo true from what im looking at hooah
She was in the top 10 for sure.
They choose the right Actresses!!!!! Vivian Leigh & Hattie McDaniels Awesome/ Amazing, both won Oscars for their roles, well deserved!!!!
I cannot count the number of times I've viewed "GWTW." To this day, I cannot even think of any other actress in the role of Scarlet O'Hara - Leigh owned that role to such a degree that her portrayal is damned near sacred.
It IS indeed!!!!
I think she was a brilliant Scarlett! And as you can see hard work does pay off... She got the Academy Award!
Well, Vivian Leigh was the perfect Scarlett (and the perfect Blanche DuBois), but I wouldn't regard the Academy Award as a measurement of excellence considering how few times in any given decade that award was given to the "best" anyone or anything.
Vivien and Hattie McDaniel were magical together. Absolutely adorable.
One of the best British actress ever.
The perfect pick and the smartest choice the people of GWTW ever made in their casting. Any other person as Scarlett would make my blood run cold. There's no one like dear sweet Vivien, God rest her. And Clark Gable, my oh my. What a handsome man he was. Why, my grandma says when my grandpa was young, he looked just like him. He's around 86 and there is some resemblence. Such a classic movie, and it will lives on in the hearts of others forever. Or at least in mine it will. As well the actors.
Well said, agree!
I like how even though she was British, she tried so hard to maintain a Southern accent; she was brilliant as Scarlett
She was perfect for the role
She left beauty, wherever she went. I'm almost certain that all of us peak in looks in our mid twenties, not just Viv.

Vivien is Scarlett O'Hara.
No doubt.
After seeing the other screen tests, it's so clear that VL just blows them out of the water. Effortlessly too!
I love this movie so much!
I was born and raised in Atlanta and Scarlet O'Hara was, is,and will always be my hero
Actually all of the actress & actors were brilliantly cast!! This what made "Gone with the Wind" an american treasure!! As well as the author!!!❤😊

Maybe it has to do with a lack of chemistry with Leslie Howard. This screen test was not with Leslie.

@@OpiumBride she is half Irish half of Scotish. Not just 01 British citizen

Tuberculose
In the first screen tests she was allowed to speak with her Posh Brit accent.
Oh man, she's so perfect..😍👏
It's impossible not to be in love with her.
@onlyforbrian
I am as gay as a Gucci handbag, but I have been in love with miss Leigh for almost 20 years.
LOL Oh, Hattie McDaniel was hilarious. Vivien was amazing. Brought me to tears.
Woah! At 0:35 she looks so determind to get what she wants. Great actress!

No problem. I hope you find what you're looking for and things work out well for you.
Amazing to see the screen test and the final product and how she refined the role. She is and was the only Scarlett O’Hara and that bitch could act has ass off💜

Let's take a look at your mug, lets see it honey. full frontal pic, head to toes.
She was born in 1911, not 1913. Her birthdate was changed to fit more to the publicity for the movie.
i saw a black and white screen test of her with leslie howard. and it has audio, but it isnt in here.
Clark gable was BORN to play taht part...I understand that acording to he description in thebiik, he and rhett favor each other...A LOT!
@VTMCompany but GWTW was filmed in colour, so what's wrong with restorig it?
I know after Vivien they all look plain.
@VTMCompany Um...the film was done in Technicolor.
magnifica
@thoserubyslippers That's very true. I have a sister who's middle name is Leigh, named for her.
I know exactly what you mean!! And I think a woman like Scarlett O'Hara could possibly make me straight! LOL So beautiful and feminine...yet so strong!

she was probably just cast, straight off.
She was also very sexy in Caesar and Cleopatra.
@Atomicslid139 In the words of Scarlett O'Hara, "I've never heard of such bad taste!"
@thoserubyslippers Well she did have consumption (TB), and I think she eventually died of it, so I would guess that yes, she had at least one physical flaw.
I had this movie on vhs...lol..in color..i love it
You are right about the age. She was around 25 when making this. Somewhere on here it said 28 so it stuck in my head but I have read books about her and that was the correct age. BTW Ashley was wonderful but never understood the appeal for her. Anyway love is blind.

She actually held up pretty well til Gone With The Wind. She was about 28 and She pulled off looking like a young belle to me. But it seemed not long after this she started to age.
I thought Joan Bennett gave the 2nd most intelligent reading...besides Vivien.
@thoserubyslippers She had really big hands actually. But other than that, no, no she didn't LOL.
i dont think she had it if at all in her youth not at this point subtle signs mb but it was at least a decade later that it started really and she had shock treatment for it around the 60's
what???
Vivien Totally outshined that gay-it was kinda all you did was listen to her!
@onlyforbrian LMAO!
She must have been devastated when she lost the part to Vivien. She was very good. But to me Viv was hands down more beautiful.
Guessing you're referring to longtime frontrunner Paulette Goddard.

I love Clark Gable he's so hot
@jeremyud lol or if you are a woman ;P I mean she's pretty
@onlyforbrian And he didn't appreciate it :(
Yes, she hated her hands, they were 'too large' in her opinion.
Who was that playing Ashley? Didn't look or sound like Leslie Howard to me...
Also, he is the ONLY Ashley!
Same here
it was the stand in for the screen test, the stars don't want to attend the screen tests so they get other actors
You're real cute telling me what to do.
LOL!
