    They said nothing. What was the deal? Who knows.

    The only performance that really stands up to time is Gable's anti-hero take on Rhett Butler. Leigh's amoral Scarlet was done much better a year later by Davis' devious Regina Giddens in the Little Foxes

      That is such a good point! Regina is Scarlett all grown up, even with that pesky daughter who doesn't understand her. It's one of Davis' best performances...the I hope you die scene is utterly brilliant!

      Nope. Nobody was ever made for a role more than Vivien Leigh was for Scarlett O’Hara. It’s iconic for a reason.

    I'm soooo glad I wasn't born in the south. The north was bad enough 😕

      The North sacrificed 10s of thousands of their young men to free the slaves. Not sure what’s so bad about that.

    You can always count on PBS to blow the trumpet for "abolish whiteness".

      @Natalie P your world is so small and empty that even I, a stranger on the internet, can tell it's small and empty

      ​@onepiecefan74 I recommend that you read "Flannery O'Connor & The Christ-Haunted South."

      You did indeed miss the point. It went right over your head. Clark Gable threatened to boycott the premier in Atlanta when Hattie McDaniel was barred from attending by the powers that be in Atlanta. Only when Hattie spoke to him and told him that he HAD to attend for the sake of everyone else involved in the film did he give in and attend. THAT is what the “big deal” was… Learn your history.
