Same, even though I only watched this movie for the first time a few weeks ago, I LOVE IT and it’s one of the best films I’ve ever seen and the book is even better! 😀❤️
We bought our Gone With the Wind movie online. I watched it for the first time in my life (I’m 40 years old) and I LOVED it. One of the most beautiful movies ever made. I hope to visit this museum someday.
Gone With the Wind is my all time favorite movie. Each actor/actress was perfect for the part! I have also read the book three times during my life (about every 15 years).
My mother, two granddaughters and myself went yesterday to this museum. I loved it. I read letters/memos between Selznick and another looking for the Rhett Butler actor. Henry Fonda and another... Vincent Price were mentioned. They made the right choice with Clark Gable. Scarlets dresses were beautiful and she was a little thing but a lot of spitfire.
That is one thing I love about seeing old costumes, the tiny clothes most actors and actresses wore. My friend went and saw Ann Margret. He's 5'7" and on his Facebook pics she was hardly tall as his shoulder. Tennie Tiny.
@@stevehansen932 You are right but ypu forgot one thing. Gone With The Wind was every sunday on the first page of the newspaper for nearly 5 years! The movie took so long to produce and the hype was unbelivable great! So Waner wanted to make a "Gone With the wind" like movie so that he can make a lot of money. The actors also wanted to play in the GWTW fake in order to impress the GWTW producer. A lot of things were cut out of Jazeabell because its main Charakter was a real clone of Scarlett. Yeah, thats the short story about it.
Thank you Steve for putting this online, for others, like me ,who cannot visit in person. I only have to hear the first few notes of Tara's Theme for the tears to flow.
@Robert Lee, Countertenor You mean the agenda of non-white people being treated fairly, and not facing bias all their life because they are not white skinned ? Imagine if you faced life-long prejudice and lost opportunities all your life because your hair was the 'wrong colour'.
@@GFSTaylor Oh for God’s sake get off your high horse. You know exactly what they were talking about- the censorship of the past. Movies like this having warnings before it in case it offends people- all because it was set in a period of history that actually happened. Pathetic.
Gone with the Wind has and will always be one of my favorite classic movies. I have the book and would love to visit this great museum. God bless you for making my day.
The museum has moved into the Bromley house in Marietta GA although lovely it’s much smaller than what’s shown here and does not have all the items displayed in this video and what a shame would have love to see that round table with the top 4 cast and the dinnerware just to mention a few
neonia hazelwood-- Robert Tonner obtained the rights to Plunkett's designs from GWTW and created one of the most authentic Scarlett dolls ever to be sold. The Franklin Mint offered a more affordable and rather well-made 16 inch version replica dolls and outfits (but they did not make ALL of them). Tonner recreated every outfit, including the ones that never made it into the movie as it was released. Alas, The Tonner Doll Company is closed now, but Tonner is still working, affiliated with: www.phynandaero.com/American-Beauty-_p_1262.html www.tonnercollectibles.com/2010collection.htm
@@onemercilessming1342 Thank you so much for posting this! I tracked him down since the link is not working anymore, and the dolls can still be purchased!!!
@@JClover2--I'm glad you could find both Mr. Tonner and the dolls. I have several of this, but not the GWTW. My favorite is the 22-inch American Model. I can find other wigs and sewing patterns for her on eBay. There is a doll enthusiast who creates sewing patterns for various dolls. I can never remember her name, but if I key in "Kitty Collier 18 inch doll sewing patterns, I can usually find her on eBay. Tonner made an 18 inch Kitty Collier, then discontinued that one and reintroduced her as a 10 1/2 in "Tiny Kitty Collier" doll with an incredible wardrobe.
This said more about the 1930s than about 1860s South. Most people were struggling in the Depression. A strong woman fighting to survive at all costs resonated with most Americans.
This stands true for parts of my life and how it has changed. I can only "Look for it in story books, for it is nothing more than a dream remembered, a civilization Gone With The Wind."
to me she was making a point. An unrealistic dream for some and nightmare for many others, that life. Also Scareltt's foolish unrealistic view of Ashley whom she believed she was in love with.
Owwww how much I wish to be able to visit I am in love with this movie clark and Vivian...I’ve read the book more than 40 times ! The movie over 50 times ..obsessed ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have such fond memories of this movie. My mother took me to see it when I was about 10 years old and I have seen it many many times since. I would say it has been my favorite book and my favorite movie for all time. Thank you for sharing about this museum. I did not know it existed.
Oh my God I HAVE to cross the pond and go here one day!! I read GWTW every year, and have the film on DVD. I absolutely love it. Was lucky enough to see Scarlett’s gorgeous curtain dress and the stunning red party dress at the V& A Museum a few years back. They were in fantastic condition!
My youngest sister loved this movie and the book so much she named her daughter ashleigh and her son rhett. my brother-in-law didn't even get a look in when it came to names
I was there last year, we drove from Nebraska down to Savannah ga. We stopped in Marietta along the way in order to see this museum, not knowing what they had inside or anything other then the fact that Marietta had a gwtw museum. The best things to see are an original smoking jacket worn by either Ashley or Rhett in the movie, (I can’t remember which one think it was Ashley) and some original chairs from scarlett’s mansion, and an original dress worn by Vivian Leigh. they took the original chairs that you see in this video in glass cases, out of the glass cases and they are up against one of the walls and merely roped off. They were the red velvet horsehair chairs from the novel. I wonder why they did that. It is more impressive behind the glass and I saw it personally. These are the original chairs that are pictured in more than one scene in the movie, they are most noticeable in scarletts mansion during the part where Melanie has to go into rhetts room. The dress that is in a white glass case is the only original movie dress. it is the actual dress worn by Vivian Leigh in the scene with Clark gable when they are on their honeymoon and they are in their room and she is looking over all the presents that she brought to take home to family members. It was tailored to Vivian Leigh’s exact measurements and the dress is very tiny. She was a small woman. It is the most interesting item in the museum. When you look at it up close you can see the authenticity in the material and in the stitching, I’ve never seen anything like it. it was tailored, hand stitched and sewn just for Vivian Leigh, the materials are original and its made of good quality materials and made as authentic as possible because the producers wanted the actresses to feel what it was really like to be a southern belle so they spared no expense on the dresses. That dress was worth the drive over to Marietta, there is also a civil was cemetery across the street and up the road from this museum, but that dress was incredible a real piece of history and was worth a pit stop off the beaten path of our travel itinerary. Real American history I asked why it was the only authentic dress in the museum (the other dresses are all were replicas) and the attendant said that the Selznick movie producers reused most of their costume pieces for other movies and so many dresses were lost. What a shame! She mentioned another original dress in one other museum, and then a dress that is not in good or viewable shape that is kept in one of the universities, don’t know where assuming it’s one of the southern public universities, prob kept for restoration/preservation purposes
Hi, Langy: I wouldn't swear to it, but there's a good chance that the university the attendant referred to is the University of Texas (Austin). The Harry Ransom Center located there has the David Selznick archives, and I seem to remember that they're doing extensive restoration/preservation work on the costumes that they have in their collection. As for curtain dress? A best I've been able to figure out, Diana Vreeland managed to get that one for the Museum of Modern Art.
My dad was sick and had to be flown down to Atlanta I saw the sign for the museum, but was so distressed it never crossed my mind to go. I think this summer both my dad and will go down and visit. 😊
Thank you for sharing this. I never knew of this museum. Have always meant to get to Savannah and Charleston. I see I must also plan on Marietta. This made my day.
Love this film and book. Have few souvenirs from the film brought back by my daughter from America. It will always always be mine and thousands of others favourite story. Who could resist Rhett !!
Steve, thanks so much for posting this! The way you filmed it, it was jut like taking a stroll through the museum. Obviously, I wished you could have paused in front of each artifact/display --- but to paraphrase Vivien Leigh's Oscar acceptance speech, "I'm afraid that (you'd) have to entertain (is) with CZcams clip as long as 'Gone with the wind" itself." It's wonderful, the memories that each exhibit brings back, accentuated by Max Steiner's wonderful score. Again, my thanks.
I read the book in high school while in bed with chicken pox. My girlfriends and I went to our local movie theater to see it (several times ) when it was re-released to theaters in the 60s. So far I’ve collected a VHS and two anniversary DVDs...and I’ve been to the GWTW museum in downtown Atlanta; an unpolluted by tall “modern” buildings. The historically minded have saved the small apartment building where Margaret Mitchell wrote the book. Any time I want to escape our current virus lockdown I walk to my 27” Mac and pop in one of my DVDs. I also have another 1939 classic, the Wizard of Oz. It too is on the top shelf of my thrift-store DVD collection just to the right of Gone With the Wind. Those who lobbied to get it removed from air-play succeeded for only a couple of weeks. Others who think that removing classic films and statues of historic figures from our collective past open the door for those who would rewrite history in their own half-informed image. Re-read “1984” and learn how the dictatorial leaders did the exact same thing. Art imitating life...and history repeating itself.
When I was young we happen to have a special showing of this on the big screen. My mother took me. She said this the only way to see this movie . She was right. What a movie. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨❤️
I love looking at things from years ago and museums of items from films and of course those dressess that were worn on the set of gone of the wind.i love Vivien Lee she was so beautiful rest in peace to her Amen.🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🦋🦋🦋🦋🌹🌹🌹🌹🌷🌷🌷🌷💐💐💐🌻🌻🌻🌹🕊.she may be gone but shes not forgotten Godbless her.🙏🕊💖
I soooo want to go there! I've been obsessed with Gone With the Wind after finishing the book and rewatching the movie. I love Scarlett and Rhett! :cry: Thank you for the video! I would probably buy the entire gift shop.
I have watched the restoration of some of the costumes on another channel and love seeing the final products. I became interested in the history of slavery as a result of the novel. I highly recommend reading the book if you like the movie. The book is very well written and better, because of the more complete storytelling.
they put it back with a commentary of the racist stuff. Which the movie had plenty. Ironic the movie would not use "KKK" (they substituted it with "political meetings") as the book did but yet they made Sam look so stupid telling the horses to make tracts when he rescued Scarlett but yet he was smart enough to fight off 3 men to do that. That did not happen in the book. Margaret Mitchell wrote the black people as intelligent she ws very respectful in how she wrote their characters. the only silly black person in the book was Prissy but she was 13 not 35 as shown in the movie. Her lines fit a silly young teen girl, but not a 35 year old woman.
Yeah and I’m very disappointed that retailers in Australia have seized selling the ‘Gone With The Wind’ DVD shortly after the black lives matter movement, luckily I have the movie recorded on my FOXTEL
Thank you SO much for this beautifully done, stylish, tasteful video. I was quite moved. Since I may never get there in person, this is deeply appreciated.
When I was a child in around 1975-9, my mother and grandmother took me to the `Gone with the wind movie` Extended, a nightmare for a child. They have once been driven off Siselia when they were young. Now I understand them, as I have been studying US American History of that Time.
بینظیر و فوقالعاده....موزه زیبا.....آرزو میکنم یکبار این موزه را ببینم....داستان و رمانی شگفت انگیز و جاودانه با حضور نفس گیر رت و جذابیت جادویی اسکارلت....همه چیز را کامل میکرد....افسوس که اسکارلت عشق رت را دیر فهمید....هرگز از دیدن این فیلم و خوندن کتابش خسته نمیشم.....جاودانه ای بی تکرار برای تمام دوران ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yeah what a beautiful. I enjoyed the tour you provided? But. Lol? I won't think about that today. I'll think about it tomorrow have a good one everybody
Yes, I can't believe those costumes are exposed to the elements without proper conservation. If they are the real ones, such as the green velvet made from the drapes, and Vivien Leighs petticoat dress, at auction, they are worth several million for those two alone. Debbie Reynolds collection of Marilyn Monroe and Judy Garland were packed in acid free wrappings and put in humidity free vaults. I'm curious if anyone has an update or more info. Thanks
I thankful for Margarte Mitchell she very talented writer and for movie Gone With Wind. The museum is wonderful and heritage that I have been given and proud of
My absolute favorite movie! Not what you’d expect hearing from a 20 year old i suppose! Got me soo interested in history and reenactment. Aside from the book, what things are at the gift shop there? If there is one!
I know people wouldn't agree with me because it's such a classic but I think a more historically accurate remake could be great. The remake of Roots was so much better than the original. I think they could do a great job
Gone With The Wind was one of the all time classic stories ever told, the building looks rather seedy in a rather seedy part of town. They need a much better building and a way better display, that collection could be turned into a very spectacular sight to behold. They need a bigger building and design experts to make beautiful life like displays of important scenes and little stages with good lighting to show off Scarlets gowns, the Museum does not do justice how great Gone With The Wind was.
I don't think all of the gowns in the museum are originals from the movie. The museum building is actually on the square of historic Marietta, Ga (Battle of Kennesaw Mountain) and is from the Civil War period. Not really sure, but I think most of the things on display are from a private collection. It's a great stop for history buffs and we really enjoyed our visit.
There is so much political outcry over anything dealing with the confederacy I’m surprised they haven’t noticed this. I agree, it needs to be displayed better, however they took down the historic 360 degree painting of the battle of Atlanta, the burning of the city, called the Cyclorama and destroyed it or dumped it somewhere. My dad told me the painting was done in the 30s while there were still living witnesses to tell it as it really was. I got to see it as a little girl and I an 69 now....don’t know what they did with it. So sad that certain folks want to rewrite history. Much information will be lost.
Gone With the Wind was re-released when I was a young adult. My boyfriend at the time took me to our local theater to see the film. We were the only two people who showed up for the performance that night in that hick coal town, but the theater manager ran the film for us anyway. The movie, the book, and its sequel by Alexandra Ripley have always been among my favorites.
Yes, I agree with most of what you have said, although I didn't really end up caring too much for Scarlett, the book by Ripley! I had kind of a difficult time trying to stay with the story line, but it was kind of fun to see how Ripley kind of updated the storyline, like Ashley asking Scarlett to marry him, and Scarlett turning him down after the personified dream of her teenaged years proposing to her!! ☺️🐶✝️⚜️
@@lindahollander3588--The sequel was written with the endorsement of the heirs to GWTW, the novel. It starts out as a pretty fair sequel as far as the writing is concerned. As to the New Orleans story line (her aged grandfather) and the Savannah story line (her Irish relatives) as well as getting Tara back from the Catholic Church (Carreen's dowry was her 1/3 share of Tara), that was plausible. The Ireland portion was where I felt that Ripley had lost the plot. The sequel was probably as well done as it could have been, since everyone was rooting for Rhett and Scarlett to reunite. Everyone except me, that is, and a few others who thought that a happy ending would have been too good to be true. The movie version wasn't as good as it could have been.
@@CroixdeLorraine--I agree in part. Scarlett would have HAD to turn down Ashley, or there would have been no reason to continue the narrative. It also served two other purposes: one, to show that Scarlett was single-minded of purpose when pursuing a man, although this time it was Rhett, and, two, to show that she had grown up somewhat.
@@onemercilessming1342 the sequel was interesting,just lost the magic, the original wasnt perfect just great intertainment,it had great appeal for most people,thats a hit
One and only I never get bored no matter how many times I watched this amazing movie too close to my heart
Same, even though I only watched this movie for the first time a few weeks ago, I LOVE IT and it’s one of the best films I’ve ever seen and the book is even better! 😀❤️
I need to watch this again. I saw it once when I was a teenager (btw not the best age to watch this movie)
I will föy to america this year and i will visit the place of the old selznick studios, the Loews Grand Theatre and this museum.
Who else shivered when the opening music starts to play.... Oh how it was so beautiful and I love Rhett 😚
The music gives me chills EVERY time. Rhett is the man!
I do whenever I listen
I sure did this music always moves me and brings a tear in my eyes.
@Trey
This is for White people . They love this kind of crap.
@Lynda Anthony By far, the BEST motion picture of ALL TIME! Stop trolling and get a life!

Gone With the Wind is my all time favorite movie. Each actor/actress was perfect for the part! I have also read the book three times during my life (about every 15 years).
I just finished the book and rewatched the movie and now I'm heartbroken again and wanting everything GWTW.
It's ironic that both Vivian Leigh and Leslie Howard were classically trained British actors not American let alone Southern at all.
My mother, two granddaughters and myself went yesterday to this museum. I loved it. I read letters/memos between Selznick and another looking for the Rhett Butler actor. Henry Fonda and another...

Well said.

This was great. I know I will never get to this lovely museum but I certainly would love to!!!
I didn't know they have a museum. I would love to go there someday
Me too someday
This stands true for parts of my life and how it has changed. I can only "Look for it in story books, for it is nothing more than a dream remembered, a civilization Gone With The Wind."
Sunny Valentine you are so right. I was born and raised in the south. Things have certainly changed, some for the better, some worse.
to me she was making a point. An unrealistic dream for some and nightmare for many others, that life. Also Scareltt's foolish unrealistic view of Ashley whom she believed she was in love with.
Such a fitting quote before movie started.
One of the greatest movies of all time! Being southern makes this movie even greater..
Owwww how much I wish to be able to visit
I am in love with this movie clark and Vivian...I’ve read the book more than 40 times ! The movie over 50 times ..obsessed ❤️❤️❤️❤️

When I was young we happen to have a special showing of this on the big screen. My mother took me. She said this the only way to see this movie . She was right. What a movie. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨❤️
I'd love to visit this museum. Thanks for a peek inside.
Thank you for posting. This was interesting to watch as it is one of my favourite films and I would never have the opportunity to visit the Museum.
Обожаю этот фильм. Благодаря:1) сюжет, 2) игра актеров, особенно главных, 3) шикарные наряды Скарлет. Они прекрасны.

Olivia De Havilland turned 104 on July 1 2020.
The rest of the cast are probably all dead !!!
I can’t believe she’s still alive. Good for her!
Olivia de Havilland died
@@lanas1149 Olivia de Havilland died
Kathryn Nard yes I know she’s dead now. RIP Olivia De Havilland
I love looking at things from years ago and museums of items from films and of course those dressess that were worn on the set of gone of the wind.i love Vivien Lee she was so beautiful rest in peace to her Amen.🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🦋🦋🦋🦋🌹🌹🌹🌹🌷🌷🌷🌷💐💐💐🌻🌻🌻🌹🕊.she may be gone but shes not forgotten Godbless her.🙏🕊💖
I soooo want to go there! I've been obsessed with Gone With the Wind after finishing the book and rewatching the movie. I love Scarlett and Rhett! :cry: Thank you for the video! I would probably buy the entire gift shop.
I have watched the restoration of some of the costumes on another channel and love seeing the final products.
I became interested in the history of slavery as a result of the novel. I highly recommend reading the book if you like the movie. The book is very well written and better, because of the more complete storytelling.
absolutely amazing
So sad they have taken this off streaming (June 2020 😩)
Schmevie Schmeves I think it will be back...they have to add a disclaimer to the beginning to warn people they may see “the past” in the movie.
Yeah it returned to hbo max at least
Schmevie Schmeves. I have this movie and the spin off Scarlet. My favorite movie.
they put it back with a commentary of the racist stuff. Which the movie had plenty. Ironic the movie would not use "KKK" (they substituted it with "political meetings") as the book did but yet they made Sam look so stupid telling the horses to make tracts when he rescued Scarlett but yet he was smart enough to fight off 3 men to do that. That did not happen in the book. Margaret Mitchell wrote the black people as intelligent she ws very respectful in how she wrote their characters. the only silly black person in the book was Prissy but she was 13 not 35 as shown in the movie. Her lines fit a silly young teen girl, but not a 35 year old woman.
Yeah and I’m very disappointed that retailers in Australia have seized selling the ‘Gone With The Wind’ DVD shortly after the black lives matter movement, luckily I have the movie recorded on my FOXTEL
There is another GWTW museum in Jonesboro, GA. Called The Road To Tara museum. Pretty darned cool.
Ellen Ramsey, I saw that and yes it was so cool.
The Margaret Mitchell House in Midtown Atlanta (where she wrote most of the book) on Peachtree St. is also a wonderful place to visit.
Thank you SO much for this beautifully done, stylish, tasteful video. I was quite moved. Since I may never get there in person, this is deeply appreciated.
Don't Tell anymone where this Place they might Do something bad to it...
Especially with the BLW movement where everything is discrimination to them !!! What a different world we are living in !!!!
I was thinking the same thing.
Yes. Too many highly opinionated nutters out there, these days.
😂😂 yeah please don’t tell them. I don’t want them to destroy or ruin this museum
Who cares...
Well done. Thank you for doing this. At this time in our country's history, we need to remember.
I love this movie and glad I found this video
Loved 🥰 this film love ❤️ the dresses ! 🏴🌹
When I was a child in around 1975-9, my mother and grandmother took me to the `Gone with the wind movie` Extended, a nightmare for a child. They have once been driven off Siselia when they were young. Now I understand them, as I have been studying US American History of that Time.
بینظیر و فوقالعاده....موزه زیبا.....آرزو میکنم یکبار این موزه را ببینم....داستان و رمانی شگفت انگیز و جاودانه با حضور نفس گیر رت و جذابیت جادویی اسکارلت....همه چیز را کامل میکرد....افسوس که اسکارلت عشق رت را دیر فهمید....هرگز از دیدن این فیلم و خوندن کتابش خسته نمیشم.....جاودانه ای بی تکرار برای تمام دوران ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I can't believe some of those dresses are just sitting out there like that. Highly unlikely they're the originals.
they are all copies but one. and not very good ones.
Of course they're not the real ones. They wouldn't be able to conserve them adequately
You can read at 1:50 that there is only one original dress on display
Kevin Coxh
Only one original and its in a glass case.
Ive been there..seen it 3 yrs ago..loved it.and the videos i sent my mom, she did too
I love when Scarlet called Ashley with her sigh breath "Oh Ashley "
Every thing still looks beautiful 😸
Yeah what a beautiful. I enjoyed the tour you provided? But. Lol? I won't think about that today. I'll think about it tomorrow have a good one everybody
I would love to visit there. Max Steiner’s music is lush.
Унесённые ветром-это шедевр!!!
Thank you from Virginia!
Better hire security to guard it so it doesn't get destroyed.
Yes...just what I was thinking!
Yes, I can't believe those costumes are exposed to the elements without proper conservation. If they are the real ones, such as the green velvet made from the drapes, and Vivien Leighs petticoat dress, at auction, they are worth several million for those two alone. Debbie Reynolds collection of Marilyn Monroe and Judy Garland were packed in acid free wrappings and put in humidity free vaults. I'm curious if anyone has an update or more info. Thanks
I hope they do because I want to see it one day!!
You just read my thoughts thank you. This is still one of my favorite movies and it is now 2020!
Mebbe you can put a bigly bunch of cracker barrels outside the front door to keep antifa out?
Great! I was really touched to see the "witnesses" in the mythical movie that I loved the most. I love Scarlet and Rhett...
Visited once while in Georgia, loved it
Well done....loved it
I thankful for Margarte Mitchell she very talented writer and for movie Gone With Wind. The museum is wonderful and heritage that I have been given and proud of
She used the money she made from the book to send young black men to medical school to be doctors. She never gets credit for this generous act.
The best movie of all time.
Oh my!! I gotta go there! Wow!
My favorite Thanksgiving after dinner movie!
The movie is a classic! People need to leave things alone!!!
This piece is fantastic!
Green and white dress with the sash is my favorite
My absolute favorite movie! Not what you’d expect hearing from a 20 year old i suppose! Got me soo interested in history and reenactment. Aside from the book, what things are at the gift shop there? If there is one!
I know people wouldn't agree with me because it's such a classic but I think a more historically accurate remake could be great. The remake of Roots was so much better than the original. I think they could do a great job
The white dress could be my wedding dress. So pretty.
Wonderful video! Thank you!
Gone With The Wind was one of the all time classic stories ever told, the building looks rather seedy in a rather seedy part of town. They need a much better building and a way better display, that collection could be turned into a very spectacular sight to behold. They need a bigger building and design experts to make beautiful life like displays of important scenes and little stages with good lighting to show off Scarlets gowns, the Museum does not do justice how great Gone With The Wind was.
I don't think all of the gowns in the museum are originals from the movie. The museum building is actually on the square of historic Marietta, Ga (Battle of Kennesaw Mountain) and is from the Civil War period. Not really sure, but I think most of the things on display are from a private collection. It's a great stop for history buffs and we really enjoyed our visit.
There is so much political outcry over anything dealing with the confederacy I’m surprised they haven’t noticed this. I agree, it needs to be displayed better, however they took down the historic 360 degree painting of the battle of Atlanta, the burning of the city, called the Cyclorama and destroyed it or dumped it somewhere. My dad told me the painting was done in the 30s while there were still living witnesses to tell it as it really was. I got to see it as a little girl and I an 69 now....don’t know what they did with it. So sad that certain folks want to rewrite history. Much information will be lost.
The Cyclorama, in Atlanta, has been closed due to its being restored. It was not destroyed. The exhibit is supposed to be re opened February, 2019.
Muito lindo, ter esses acervos históricos. Eu quero muito conhecer, ver tudo isso de perto. Fico emocionada só de assistir. Parabéns 👏👏👏 lindo 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Impressionnant.! Quel film magnifique.! C'est bien d'avoir ouvert un musée.
I'd love to come here! I live in Douglasville, which is about 43 minutes away. Someone come pick me up and take me here! 😂
I hope you can go and see it! We need to do things that bring us happiness
@@johnlorenzen4633 Me too! I love all things historic! This would be a dream to go and check out.
Gone With the Wind was re-released when I was a young adult. My boyfriend at the time took me to our local theater to see the film. We were the only two people who showed up for the performance that night in that hick coal town, but the theater manager ran the film for us anyway. The movie, the book, and its sequel by Alexandra Ripley have always been among my favorites.
Yes, I agree with most of what you have said, although I didn't really end up caring too much for Scarlett, the book by Ripley!
I had kind of a difficult time trying to stay with the story line, but it was kind of fun to see how Ripley kind of updated the storyline, like Ashley asking Scarlett to marry him, and Scarlett turning him down after the personified dream of her teenaged years proposing to her!! ☺️🐶✝️⚜️
The sequel wasn't very believable, couldn't do justice to original story,nice try though
@@lindahollander3588--The sequel was written with the endorsement of the heirs to GWTW, the novel. It starts out as a pretty fair sequel as far as the writing is concerned. As to the New Orleans story line (her aged grandfather) and the Savannah story line (her Irish relatives) as well as getting Tara back from the Catholic Church (Carreen's dowry was her 1/3 share of Tara), that was plausible. The Ireland portion was where I felt that Ripley had lost the plot. The sequel was probably as well done as it could have been, since everyone was rooting for Rhett and Scarlett to reunite. Everyone except me, that is, and a few others who thought that a happy ending would have been too good to be true. The movie version wasn't as good as it could have been.
@@CroixdeLorraine--I agree in part. Scarlett would have HAD to turn down Ashley, or there would have been no reason to continue the narrative. It also served two other purposes: one, to show that Scarlett was single-minded of purpose when pursuing a man, although this time it was Rhett, and, two, to show that she had grown up somewhat.
@@onemercilessming1342 the sequel was interesting,just lost the magic, the original wasnt perfect just great intertainment,it had great appeal for most people,thats a hit
La.visto como 50 veces y la seguire viendo
They just don’t make movies like this anymore. Scenery alone takes your breath away
I Love this film.
この映画はMGMではなくセルズニックという個人プロデューサーによって制作されたという歴史が驚きだ。
It’s beautiful ❤️
what a lovely place
gotta visit
Como me gustaría ir para mi la mejor película del mundo y de todos los tiempos me encanta 😍❤️
Convenida.
I’ve been there! Love the store.
Llegan los recuerdos :")
