This scene shows the epitome of Scarlett's character. She never truly loved Ashley, Ashley was an adolescent obsession...something unattainable that belonged to another. Unfortunately, she realized she never loved Ashley once it was too late. I don't believe Scarlett was "in love" with Rhett in the beginning of their relationship, but as time passed she realized Rhett was the only person who truly knew her and what she was capable of. My stance to this day is that the true love of her life was Tara. Gerald said it best, "land is the only thing worth fighting for, worth dying for...because it's the only thing that last".
ABC882011 Absolutely!!!!!- Tara is the main connection during all this story, even in the book. Max Steiner pointed that in his wonderful "Tara's theme"-
This scene made me jealous. I had to quit a job because I had a boss who was stealing my wages and micromanaging my private life. I needed it to be a foggy morning when I walked out on him and for him to ask what would become of his free gravy train I was cutting off. But I didn't get to say "Frankly I don't give a damn." Unlike me he loved only his careerstatus the way Scarlet only loves Tara.
Yes Rhett SAW her true self, which is so valuable, but life is often like that: people often only know what they had when they have lost it. Now and then we should try to imagine really seriously and intense we would lose something specific. Especially things that annoy us. We often complain because we don't know what it's like to not have what we're complaining about. I think this could even be a good method to check for ourselves whether something is really as bad as we think. But to do this we really have to be able to put ourselves in the situation. I also have things that I often complain about. But I know that it's actually a kind of luxury and sometimes I think I should be ashamed. But on the other side the things I complain about the most are definitely wrong. People in affluent societies often create problems where none exist. Just take a look at Burundi. But okay, Scarlet and Rhett is about the one real love we all know or wish for. Unfortunately, I know what it's like to only recognize the value of a person and what s/he has done for you later, when it's too late. In my youth, at the time I constantly watched "Gone with the wind", there was a boy.. he really was gold..and loved me, but I only could see him as a brother and best friend. Today .. more than 20 years later I think how stupid I was. I hope he is okay. I hope he lives his best life.
Awesome ending. She spent all that time pining after Ashley, and now it appears she'll spend another huge chunk of her life (if not ALL of it) trying to get Rhett back. She always wants what's not there and doesn't see or appreciate anything in front of her. Love, a healthy child, her beautiful home. She lives in her own little mental world. Even when she had a baby and a loving husband all she wanted was an 18 1/2 inch waist.
there was a sequel apparently but i wish it was with vivian and clark but i think they both died by that point so it was done by timothy dalton and another actress i didnt like the sequel but GWTW is a masterpiece love it always watch it on a sunday with a cuppa 🙌🏻
The title really makes sense after you’ve seen how depressing this film is. Aside from her land, Scarlett loses everything: her parents, all 3 of her husbands, her child, and her best friend. By the end, they all are gone with the wind, and while yes she still has an estate to go back to, she is all alone.
The first two husbands die and the 3rd she did to herself. But I don't think Melodie was ever her best friend. More like she was Melodie's best friend.
I remember Rhett saying to Scarlett once that he wants to hear her say him the words she said to Ashley (= I love you) and how Scarlett laughed and arrogantly answered "you'll never hear me say those words to you" ...well...0:46...tsk tsk, Scarlett, never say never. LOL!
yes and the nightmare she had try to found something in the mist is the escene where she runs seeking for Rhett after she "realizes" Ashley never loved her.
Its soo sad it makes me cry :( even after reading the book for the 3rd time my heart breaks at knowing how much Rhett loved her yet she loved him back all too late :(
I don`t think she have learned anything, or is just a rushing stupid ending. Why or how in just one second she understands she never loved Ashley? Suddenly she "knows" she love Rhett all the way? What an stupid climax.
@@jackprescott9652 it was the loss of Melanie that triggered the realization. She doesn’t know what she has until she loses it, until it’s “gone with the wind,” you could say. Losing Melanie makes her realize how much she cares for her and how wrong she was to be so horrible to her and try to steal her husband, which logically triggers her to realize how little Ashley means to her now by comparison. It’s only when she’s able to admit that Ashley was never worthy of her attention, that her mind becomes free to consider everything else that’s happened outside of his shadow. And the center of that “everything else” is Rhett, who was always there for her when Ashley wasn’t. Plus Melanie herself pleads with her to be kind to Rhett because he loves her; hearing that confirmation from Melanie makes her realize that Rhett was never just saying that he loved her, that he really meant it, whereas Ashley never meant it whenever he led her on. So Scarlett had to go through a ton of losses and difficulties before realizing, far too late, the value of what she had.
Scarlett needed to grow up, she needed to go through ordeals in life. Rhett helped in this process of maturing, he was always there for her. But even he had a limit because his heart was not made of ice and did not want to be the second man she sought when she needed comfort for wishing another man, who was an illusory passion. She spends almost half the story making a fool of him. And that ending conveys that, she loses her mind when she realizes she can really lose her true love. Both were already devastated by a recent loss, so that was partly the catalyst. And in that scene you don't know if Scarlett's tomorrow brought more bitter tears, because it gets the feeling of unfinished business, that she won't give up so easily since that would mean being alone with her heart in pieces. This film is one of the oldest and a masterpiece.
We shall never see a movie of this caliber and artistry ever again. It is a living testimonial and enduring mural of this incomparable love story of Rhett and Scarlett shadowed by the Civil War; but more than that, it is an inspiring testament of the utter strength of its main character and most beloved heroine of all time, Scarlett O'Hara. If Margaret Mitchell created Scarlett out of her own life experiences, it was Vivien Leigh who brought this character to life. She was as talented as she was beautiful. She was the forerunner of actresses like Meryl Streep who literally become the character they portray. In that respect, we shall never witness another actress like Vivien Leigh who gave the world the most perfect Scarlett.
Darrell Jones OMG !!!!!- Nobody can explain it better than you !!!!!! Vivien is my fav actress because of this film- I have never seen, before or after such a perfomance like her's. She IS Scarlett... and a beautiful one!!!!!!-
I used to pick it up and just start reading at wherever the book parted, and I would be there an hour or more longer, not even realizing the passing of time, so engrossed in the words of Margaret Mitchell.
There are some which come pretty darned close. "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" features a couple (George and Martha) who actually *do* love each other, deeply and passionately -- and let something come between them festers, then abscesses, and threatens to destroy their marriage until it is lanced (and the poison drained -- I'm using a metaphor, obviously!) in the next to the last scene. It's one of the very best movies ever made. "To Kill A Mockingbird" is also in that league.
la vi mas de doscientas veces, no exajero, lo juro. es la mejor de todos los tiempos. jamas dejo de verla, cada vez que la dan. vivian una actriz de lo mejor al igual que olivia de havillan. laura.
Although Scarlett was to blame for their failing relationship still hoped rhett stayed fight to save his marriage now she finally realised he was her true lover!
I was so desperate for a sequel but the original writer didnt write any so i saw another writer wrote the sequel to GWTW so i read it. I did not regret it.
@@hoshiuno7530 She died a couple of years after the film premiere. But we don`t really need a sequel. We know plenty of those characters to know Scarlet would never be a happy person. She eventually would fail in trying to get Rhett back. Let`s not forget the era where the story is taking place and an alpha male like Rhett, very rich with a broken ego, would never trust in a woman like Scarlet now that Melanie, his only guarantee that Scarlet is loyal to him, is dead. Rhett would treat Scarlet like a piece of trash the moment Scarlet tries to make a move towards him.
@@jackprescott9652 It doesn't matter if he was an alpha or something. No matter the era, human nature is like that. He loved her, but he didn't want to be made a fool of, and in that scene enough was enough. It's like that saying "You need to lose to give value," Scarlett needed that shake. I think the author wanted to leave on the imagination of the public what the future would reserve for both.
@@mariec.albuquerque6446 It matters. Weak men like her previous husbands would die for her no matter what. Rhett on the other hand, an Alpha man, knew that, if Scarlet eventually goes to bed with Ashley, he would kill one or both of them. He doesn`t want that, he is tired of his toxic marriage, so he does the smartest thing a reasonable person would do, walk away.
From when the wind blows rght back to this. From the village of High Green and Newton Chambers industrial estate. What music is worth such sobbing women. Dry your tears and goto sleep child.
The end of Rhett's love to Scarlet ended really in the day his daughter died. He knows at that moment that his life didn't worth it with Scarlet. Scarlet was really bad, traitor and unworthy of Rhett's love.
@@abandonallhope.1040 I agree. Victor Fleming made Scarlett too much of a bitch & Vivien told him so but to no avail. And he made Rhett nicer than he was in the book because he was Clark Gable & Victor Fleming felt he needed to maintain Gable's good guy image.
Agree. We`re not talking about the book in here, but about the film. And in this film, Scarlet was a total b...itch and by the era standards a total s...lut. She destroyed the lives of all the men and women in her family equally just to get what she wants. So i never understand why i`m the only one who cheers that Rhett kick her ass at the end to NEVER RETURN, whereas everybody says it was "sad" that Rhetts walks out. This was a very happy and a fair ending to me.
Really? After all the mean and nasty things that bi...tch Scarlett did to all her husbands, and sisters and Melanie? F...uck her. To me, Rhett leaving her was a very happy ending.
I read the book and have seen the movie countless times, I believe utterly that she gets him back eventually. I think he was just enjoying seeing her squirm for once. I know both sequels end with the, getting back together.
I think Rhett leaves because he's giving Scarlett the chance to have Ashley finally, after Melanie's death. I think Scarlett destroyed their marriage by not realizing she loved Rhett, while pining away for Ashley the entire time. She realized all too late who she really loved. However, maybe being apart will make each of them miss each other, and once Rhett sees she really is no longer in love with Ashely, they can start over. Both of their hearts and souls were raw from the all the personal loss they suffered, and the civil war, as well. I'm a romantic, so I like to think Rhett and Scarlett got back back together eventually.
I just think the same. Rhett leaving doesnt mean he stopped loving her, he isnt saying that, he is just tired and hopeless at this point thinking Scarlett still loves Ashley so he walks away to give her what he thinks she wants, just as he has always done. I do think she gets him back as Scarlett's last words on the book and movie were to make up a plan to get Rhett back. Also because I like to believe that if Margaret Mitchell's real intenton was to keep them apart it would have ended with her crying in the stairs as a way of us knowing it really was over, but she decided to ended it with her saying that she would get Rhett back, and thats exactly what she does. She is telling us what happens later even if we dont get to see it. The answer for me is not if Scarlett accomplish it, the asnwer is how she does it, thats what we dont know. The only bad thing is that we dont get to see how she does it through Margaret Mitchell's mind. But well, we have two other books where we have that.
Well you all are women and you put yourselves in Scarlett shoes. I dare you to put yourselves in Melanie´s shoes or Suellen O´hara shoes? Do you really want Scarlett have a happy ending still? I don´t think so. I´m a man and if i were any of her three husbands (specially the first 2), i would kick her in her ass and try to ruin her bussiness out and leaving her with no money and alone. That is what Scarlett truly deserved.
"I only know that I love u" "Thats your misfortune" "Rhett what am I going to do" "Frankly my dear I dont give a damn" So freaking satisfying. Savage ending.
What I find extremely fatal is how Scarlet's final sentence was translated in the German translation of the film. Because in this, the meaning of the sentence and the hope, that lies in it, were changed completely and turned into the opposite. That's almost a kind of crime in the film itself, I think. Scarlet says, "Tomorrow is another day." Therein lies the statement: Every day you can decide to start afresh and leave your unhappiness behind you. Unfortunately, I only discovered the difference between the two statements in the US and German versions decades later. After the german version of this film accompanied me in my childhood, youth and my young adult life. Because in the final sentence, as well as in many other scenes, in all scenes where she says: "Tomorrow is another day", in the german version this sentence is always translated in: "Let's postpone it to tomorrow!" I really don't understand why the germans picked this sentence instead of what she actually said. Since it's such a difference in the meaning of both statements. "Tomorrow is another day", and "Let's postpone it to tomorrow", the german version of the statement takes all hope and says: "Oh don't worry about it. Don't even think about it. Somehow it will work out itself, but I.. I .. can't do anything about it myself." The two statements are SO different, I can't imagine, that a statement, that is SO important for the film.. the most important statement of all, has been changed & distorted so amateurishly to the complete opposite and by coincidence??? That NEVER has been changed this way by coincidence.
@@Louison. Yes it's not that rare that the translation of movies isn't always accurate. But I am sure you already knew this. :) I had to think about the both phrases again, which seem to be very different at first sight. But now I find they aren't not that different as I first thought. In both you can find: "Live in the present." And in the english version also lies much hope and joy of life too. It also says: "If you want tomorrow can be a new beginning." In the German translation: "Let's postpone it to tomorrow", you may even find: "Live in "the now" ... (Would english talking people say it that way? 😄 But you know what I mean.) ... and enjoy the bittersweet pain, the longing that life means." The German is more about savoring the bittersweet moment and maybe also trying to find the good even in the bad.
@@screenactorsguilable Which one 🤔 ? Scarlett or Vivian ? You're cute ... Take that suit off and , losen up that tie a bit ... Hell it's the 21st century dude . Look'en all like " Get Smart " . That was a great TV series ! I'm just playing with ya because you , think Scarlett O'Hara is powerful ! She was insecure , spoiled , manipulative and , " Frankly my dear , I don't give a damn " ...
I love this movie. I saw it on TV and decided to buy the 4-disc special edition. I wish someone would make a GWTW 2 where Rhett and Scarlet got back together.
MRKLjinjang do u mean "Scarlett"?- at first it was a best seller, as everybody wants to know how Ripley ended the story, but the critics hated it and then the people hated it too!!!- the TV series based on the book was so bad that CBS (I think) had many problems with the advertisements, since each company had paid a lot to anounce there- I have all the press articles- You should read TIME mag critic or NEWSWEEK.... when the novel was published!!- They called it something as "Franky my dear I don't give a cent for it"- Haha......Thankfully nobody remembers it now- As Mitchell said, about the ending of her novel: "THIS is the end"- Each one can imagine his or her ending-
Ly Li I don't think a sequel is necessary. As Miss Mitchell said "This is the ending of my story"- everybody has to imagine how the story between Scarlett and Rhett continues- If u study, very carefully, the ending of the film or novel you should find your own- I have mine.... Press asked about HOW it ends even to Miss Leigh... and she founds her own ending too-
I hate this ending. when people start realize they fall to someone but the love just to late and they lose that someone to other people. Always appreciate someone because if you lose you can't take back them back to you life again even you begging for 💯 tear's.
I had a fortune (or maybe a “fortune”) to love a girl like Scarlett.... I gave her all the love a man could give to a woman, but it was not enough.... We broke today.... Do I feel sorry for 5 years of my life? I don’t know....
I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you may recover soon and move past towards a happier future. And I hope you may forgive yourself for any blame you hold for yourself. Hope you can be happy again. :)
@@Checkmate1138 thank you very much for your support. It was a very hard day of my life when I wrote these words... But I didn’t give up and succeeded to bring her back. I did my best. I knew I had no other choice than to be with her. I could never be happy again without her.
@@XozainAkul Wow! You reunited? Congratulations then! That's such a rarity in these sort of scenarios, I think. I know we are strangers on the internet, however I really would love to hear your whole story about you two. How exactly did you go about "not giving up"?
@@Checkmate1138 to cut long story VERY short: it was me who didn’t give up. I didn’t try to force her, I just did my very best to view things from her point of view, to understand her fears... She says she can’t believe how I succeed to bring her back, because she was extremely determined to brake up. She tought we (especially me) would be better off if we brake up. I convinced her it is not true. It was all about her unfounded fears... Frankly, I don’t think someone else could fix a relationship in such a situation :)
@@XozainAkul I am in awe out of admiration for your incredible fortune. So amazing for that to have happened. Well i do wish you and your partner everlasting love and happiness, and O hope that you too may be better about understanding each other, so that you guys may continue loving each other from until forever.
Truth is, Rhett made himself kind of unlikable with the mocking attitude he had toward her. The book goes more into this than the movie. I know that Scarlett was cluster B personality mess, but part of me can't fault her for being mean and angry toward him.
Rhett Butler was hip to her tricks and she could not stand that about him. Scarlett's mockeries were well deserved IMO. She was a user and con artist all of her life and she didn't care about the trail of bodies left in her wake. She wasn't a full blown psychotic but she had tendencies.
@@johnnypastrana6727 " Scarlett's mockeries were well deserved IMO." Sure, but if Rhett's ultimate intention was to make her love him the way she loved Ashley, his "game" fell flat on the face.
@@AI-ch3if I agree. I think Rhett was a pretty good "con artist" and "user" himself. "Hip to her tricks" ? Wasn't it Rhett that chased after Scarlett for years, even knowing she wanted to be with Ashley? lol That doesn't show being "hip" to anything. Please...lol Isn't it true the really only true friend Rhett has, is Belle Watling. And he didn't even pick up on how crazy Watling was about him. lol He was also a lot older in the movie than he was portrayed in the book. One comment by Rhett that I agree with when he told Scarlett, they were "both bad lots."
This is a trait of his personality, just as Scarlett was spoiled and without regard for the feelings of others, including dreaming of a man who belonged to another woman - a good friend of hers. So Rhett was the person with the right artillery to pair with a woman as complicated as that, with the right willpower and temperament. At one point this mockery was mere façade to hide the pain or some other emotion. This is purely a couple of ups and downs.
Reminds me of Evita, ea woman asks in their own due time: "So what happens now? What happens nowwww? Where am I going to? WHERE am I goi... --Don't ASK. ANYMORE. " WHEW. COLD.
Proof you do not even know yourself until such time as you are FORCED to be on ur own! Involuntary isolation & hardship will SHOW/PROVE u everything u need to know for the rest of time. It's like only once it's hurt so mf bad can Life possible be worth all the actual bad it inevitably bring u. Like I never even knew how strong I was until I literally HAD to be. Tested. Tried and True!
What would make the ending much more tragic, But after losing everyone and everything, Yes, she went back to Tara, We’ll have to live the rest of her life all alone and dying alone. And she’ll be nothing but a corpse in the land. Tell me if that will be a more satisfying ending. But after losing everything made her open her eyes and taught her a lesson. Scarlett might commit suicide after losing Rhett. But no, she’s not going to give up. If Scarlett had given up on life and committing suicide, That would make her a loser. But even though she lost everything, she will fight to live another day. That’s what makes Scarlet a winner.
Funny how a movie can mimic reality just like every woman who knows that she has lost. Everything will never admit that she was wrong and doing anything that she did that was wrong. She will always cover it up and try to push forward even as miserable as her life is, I find this so comical, why can’t people just stand up and say I did the wrong thing why can’t people just say I was wrong especially women they never can seem to no matter how bad it was or how bad what they did was wrong
I was its sequel Scarlett mini series...I must say that it was very good ...they continued the story where they left it....the nature of the characters remained the same ofcourse not the actors themselves...they ones who want to see what happens next should really watch it
That sequel was s...hit. Even the margaret Mitchell estate was embarrased with that novel... or the series. The only "sequel" the legal estate aprove is "Rhett Butler´s people".
I believe Scarlett only ever loved Scarlett. She was never fit to be a mother or a wife. So perfect ending for her and good for Rhett too finally doing what's right for him.
This is what happens when a man falls for a devil with a beautiful face. In the end, at least he made the decision to leave a selfish woman because she drove him to madness. Let this be a lesson for the men in real life who allowed themselves to be destroyed by a woman like that.
We don`t need the crappy sequel Scarlet Novel. We know by this time, that Rhett a big alpha male, with that big ego, would never trust in a woman like Scarlett no matter what she tells him. The only guarantee he had that his wife was loyal to him is Melanie. Now that Melanie is gone, there`s really no reason to think that eventually Ashley would have an affair with his wife. That`s why he leaves as soon as he knows Melanie is dead and that she asked Scarlet to look after her family. So no matter what kind of plans Scarlett have to gain Rhett`s again, she would eventually fail. Scarlett never cared for any of their husbands, nor Melanie feelings, nor her sisters. And Rhett at the end, understands what Ashley always knew, Scarlet is anything but wife material. She was a nasty, selfish and mean human being who deserved to end alone.
You weren't watching the same movie I was. I saw plenty of chemistry. If you have read anything about VL's and CG's working relationship in making GWTW, it is said they had a good professional relationship. There were a number of pretty hot scenes in GWTW, imo. Rhett scooping her up and carrying her up the staircase two steps at a time, comes to mind. There was chemistry in the movie. The Scarlett and Rhett characters were both kind of lousy as people. However both Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh were outstanding in their respective roles.
I have seen this film several times, and i really don´t see Scarlett "loving" Rhett anytime in the film. Sure, she loves to be a wealthy woman and probably she enjoy sex with Rhett, but we can see that, even after having her daughter she still have a photo of Ashley. So how at the end she realizes loving Rhett since years ago, is very stupid. I think is a fail in the plot or is a fail in the Directing.
'After all tommorow is another day' Best ending line ever
Asolutely, CHEERS!!!! 🍺😃

Yes Rhett SAW her true self, which is so valuable, but life is often like that: people often only know what they had when they have lost it. Now and then we should try to imagine really seriously and intense we would lose something specific. Especially things that annoy us. We often complain because we don't know what it's like to not have what we're complaining about.

But okay, Scarlet and Rhett is about the one real love we all know or wish for.
Unfortunately, I know what it's like to only recognize the value of a person and what s/he has done for you later, when it's too late.

she still has two kids from her other marriages
Yeah. And it was stated that the both of them hate her.
What’s wrong with wanting a 18 1/2 inch waist? Shit that what I want!

It is a living testimonial and enduring mural of this incomparable love story of Rhett and Scarlett shadowed by the Civil War; but more than that, it is an inspiring testament of the utter strength of its main character and most beloved heroine of all time, Scarlett O'Hara. If Margaret Mitchell created Scarlett out of her own life experiences, it was Vivien Leigh who brought this character to life. She was as talented as she was beautiful. She was the forerunner of actresses like Meryl Streep who literally become the character they portray. In that respect, we shall never witness another actress like Vivien Leigh who gave the world the most perfect Scarlett.
Darrell Jones OMG !!!!!- Nobody can explain it better than you !!!!!! Vivien is my fav actress because of this film- I have never seen, before or after such a perfomance like her's. She IS Scarlett... and a beautiful one!!!!!!-
I agree. I am reading the book the third time and I am as involved in it as before. a great masterpiece
I used to pick it up and just start reading at wherever the book parted, and I would be there an hour or more longer, not even realizing the passing of time, so engrossed in the words of Margaret Mitchell.
There are some which come pretty darned close. "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" features a couple (George and Martha) who actually *do* love each other, deeply and passionately -- and let something come between them festers, then abscesses, and threatens to destroy their marriage until it is lanced (and the poison drained -- I'm using a metaphor, obviously!) in the next to the last scene.
It's one of the very best movies ever made. "To Kill A Mockingbird" is also in that league.
I'll think about that tomorrow.
Very satisfying ending.

The best film ever.
la vi mas de doscientas veces, no exajero, lo juro. es la mejor de todos los tiempos. jamas dejo de verla, cada vez que la dan. vivian una actriz de lo mejor al igual que olivia de havillan. laura.
this is one of my fav. movies
What a wonderful scene! Sadly they cut it here before the end when the film music ends with reaching a triumphant climax.
They'd meet once in awhile for a couple of beers.
in difficulties can we draw our strength from the passions that most foment us, which in turn define our person and from them always get up!!
Although Scarlett was to blame for their failing relationship still hoped rhett stayed fight to save his marriage now she finally realised he was her true lover!
I was so desperate for a sequel but the original writer didnt write any so i saw another writer wrote the sequel to GWTW so i read it. I did not regret it.
@@hoshiuno7530 She died a couple of years after the film premiere. But we don`t really need a sequel. We know plenty of those characters to know Scarlet would never be a happy person. She eventually would fail in trying to get Rhett back. Let`s not forget the era where the story is taking place and an alpha male like Rhett, very rich with a broken ego, would never trust in a woman like Scarlet now that Melanie, his only guarantee that Scarlet is loyal to him, is dead. Rhett would treat Scarlet like a piece of trash the moment Scarlet tries to make a move towards him.
@@jackprescott9652 It doesn't matter if he was an alpha or something. No matter the era, human nature is like that. He loved her, but he didn't want to be made a fool of, and in that scene enough was enough. It's like that saying "You need to lose to give value," Scarlett needed that shake. I think the author wanted to leave on the imagination of the public what the future would reserve for both.
@@mariec.albuquerque6446 It matters. Weak men like her previous husbands would die for her no matter what. Rhett on the other hand, an Alpha man, knew that, if Scarlet eventually goes to bed with Ashley, he would kill one or both of them. He doesn`t want that, he is tired of his toxic marriage, so he does the smartest thing a reasonable person would do, walk away.
But I must think about it!!!! Why oh why do we have to face the world, old Scarlett? Don't know.
From when the wind blows rght back to this. From the village of High Green and Newton Chambers industrial estate. What music is worth such sobbing women. Dry your tears and goto sleep child.
The end of Rhett's love to Scarlet ended really in the day his daughter died. He knows at that moment that his life didn't worth it with Scarlet. Scarlet was really bad, traitor and unworthy of Rhett's love.
Rhett was also an ass, even more so in the books. They toned him way down in the movie which makes Scarlett look comparatively much worse.
@@abandonallhope.1040 I agree. Victor Fleming made Scarlett too much of a bitch & Vivien told him so but to no avail. And he made Rhett nicer than he was in the book because he was Clark Gable & Victor Fleming felt he needed to maintain Gable's good guy image.
Agree. We`re not talking about the book in here, but about the film. And in this film, Scarlet was a total b...itch and by the era standards a total s...lut. She destroyed the lives of all the men and women in her family equally just to get what she wants. So i never understand why i`m the only one who cheers that Rhett kick her ass at the end to NEVER RETURN, whereas everybody says it was "sad" that Rhetts walks out. This was a very happy and a fair ending to me.
@@jackprescott9652 It was only sad because she learned her lesson too little too late. But yeah, she REALLY had it coming!!
1000 fking pages and they are breaking up???? Too much people died, I needed Rhett's hug and happy ending!
Really? After all the mean and nasty things that bi...tch Scarlett did to all her husbands, and sisters and Melanie? F...uck her. To me, Rhett leaving her was a very happy ending.
They dont make movie this good anymore.
I read the book and have seen the movie countless times, I believe utterly that she gets him back eventually. I think he was just enjoying seeing her squirm for once.
I know both sequels end with the, getting back together.
I think Rhett leaves because he's giving Scarlett the chance to have Ashley finally, after Melanie's death. I think Scarlett destroyed their marriage by not realizing she loved Rhett, while pining away for Ashley the entire time. She realized all too late who she really loved. However, maybe being apart will make each of them miss each other, and once Rhett sees she really is no longer in love with Ashely, they can start over. Both of their hearts and souls were raw from the all the personal loss they suffered, and the civil war, as well. I'm a romantic, so I like to think Rhett and Scarlett got back back together eventually.
I just think the same. Rhett leaving doesnt mean he stopped loving her, he isnt saying that, he is just tired and hopeless at this point thinking Scarlett still loves Ashley so he walks away to give her what he thinks she wants, just as he has always done. I do think she gets him back as Scarlett's last words on the book and movie were to make up a plan to get Rhett back. Also because I like to believe that if Margaret Mitchell's real intenton was to keep them apart it would have ended with her crying in the stairs as a way of us knowing it really was over, but she decided to ended it with her saying that she would get Rhett back, and thats exactly what she does. She is telling us what happens later even if we dont get to see it. The answer for me is not if Scarlett accomplish it, the asnwer is how she does it, thats what we dont know.
The only bad thing is that we dont get to see how she does it through Margaret Mitchell's mind. But well, we have two other books where we have that.
Well you all are women and you put yourselves in Scarlett shoes. I dare you to put yourselves in Melanie´s shoes or Suellen O´hara shoes? Do you really want Scarlett have a happy ending still? I don´t think so. I´m a man and if i were any of her three husbands (specially the first 2), i would kick her in her ass and try to ruin her bussiness out and leaving her with no money and alone. That is what Scarlett truly deserved.
@@yeikafonfay3621 Maybe, but Scarlett had to learn a lesson first!
"I only know that I love u"
"Thats your misfortune"
"Rhett what am I going to do"
"Frankly my dear I dont give a damn"
So freaking satisfying. Savage ending.
What I find extremely fatal is how Scarlet's final sentence was translated in the German translation of the film. Because in this, the meaning of the sentence and the hope, that lies in it, were changed completely and turned into the opposite. That's almost a kind of crime in the film itself, I think. Scarlet says, "Tomorrow is another day." Therein lies the statement: Every day you can decide to start afresh and leave your unhappiness behind you.
Unfortunately, I only discovered the difference between the two statements in the US and German versions decades later. After the german version of this film accompanied me in my childhood, youth and my young adult life. Because in the final sentence, as well as in many other scenes, in all scenes where she says: "Tomorrow is another day", in the german version this sentence is always translated in: "Let's postpone it to tomorrow!" I really don't understand why the germans picked this sentence instead of what she actually said. Since it's such a difference in the meaning of both statements. "Tomorrow is another day", and "Let's postpone it to tomorrow", the german version of the statement takes all hope and says:
"Oh don't worry about it. Don't even think about it. Somehow it will work out itself, but I.. I .. can't do anything about it myself." The two statements are SO different, I can't imagine, that a statement, that is SO important for the film.. the most important statement of all, has been changed & distorted so amateurishly to the complete opposite and by coincidence??? That NEVER has been changed this way by coincidence.
Oh yes ! Thanks, I never really noticed but it is quite the same thing (kinda mistake) in the french translation !
@@Louison. Yes it's not that rare that the translation of movies isn't always accurate. But I am sure you already knew this. :) I had to think about the both phrases again, which seem to be very different at first sight. But now I find they aren't not that different as I first thought. In both you can find: "Live in the present." And in the english version also lies much hope and joy of life too. It also says: "If you want tomorrow can be a new beginning."
In the German translation: "Let's postpone it to tomorrow", you may even find: "Live in "the now" ... (Would english talking people say it that way? 😄 But you know what I mean.)
... and enjoy the bittersweet pain, the longing that life means."
The German is more about savoring the bittersweet moment and maybe also trying to find the good even in the bad.
I love this powerful woman !!!
Who Margaret Mitchell or Scarlett O'Hara !? 🤔 ...
@@edielawrence97 Scarlett and Vivien obviously lol
@@screenactorsguilable
Scarlett O'Hara , powerfully spoiled little brat . Ha , ha 🤣 !
@@screenactorsguilable
Which one 🤔 ? Scarlett or Vivian ? You're cute ...
Take that suit off and , losen up that tie a bit ...
Hell it's the 21st century dude .
Look'en all like " Get Smart " .
That was a great TV series !
I'm just playing with ya because you , think Scarlett O'Hara is powerful ! She was insecure , spoiled , manipulative and ,
" Frankly my dear , I don't give a damn " ...
Scarlett was a mean, spolied, b...itch. Glad that Rhett had the last laugh at the end.
I love this movie. I saw it on TV and decided to buy the 4-disc special edition. I wish someone would make a GWTW 2 where Rhett and Scarlet got back together.
There is the sequel called "Scarlet"
Nicole Jones The sequel is so poor in contrast :)
Quan Dang I read it- I hate it- Nothing to do with Mitchell's wonderful novel.
MRKLjinjang do u mean "Scarlett"?- at first it was a best seller, as everybody wants to know how Ripley ended the story, but the critics hated it and then the people hated it too!!!- the TV series based on the book was so bad that CBS (I think) had many problems with the advertisements, since each company had paid a lot to anounce there- I have all the press articles- You should read TIME mag critic or NEWSWEEK.... when the novel was published!!- They called it something as "Franky my dear I don't give a cent for it"- Haha......Thankfully nobody remembers it now- As Mitchell said, about the ending of her novel: "THIS is the end"- Each one can imagine his or her ending-
Ly Li I don't think a sequel is necessary. As Miss Mitchell said "This is the ending of my story"- everybody has to imagine how the story between Scarlett and Rhett continues- If u study, very carefully, the ending of the film or novel you should find your own- I have mine.... Press asked about HOW it ends even to Miss Leigh... and she founds her own ending too-
best scene evaaa!!! best line ever: Frankly my dear, I dont give a damn.
lol i just watched this movie like rn
I hate this ending. when people start realize they fall to someone but the love just to late and they lose that someone to other people. Always appreciate someone because if you lose you can't take back them back to you life again even you begging for 💯 tear's.
A really dramatic end scene!

In MAD's satire, Rhett goes after his true love - Ashley Wilkes!!!
😭😭😭😭awww man...
This scene reminds me of me when I left my Ex for cheating on me.
I had a fortune (or maybe a “fortune”) to love a girl like Scarlett.... I gave her all the love a man could give to a woman, but it was not enough.... We broke today.... Do I feel sorry for 5 years of my life? I don’t know....
I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you may recover soon and move past towards a happier future. And I hope you may forgive yourself for any blame you hold for yourself. Hope you can be happy again. :)
@@Checkmate1138 thank you very much for your support. It was a very hard day of my life when I wrote these words... But I didn’t give up and succeeded to bring her back. I did my best. I knew I had no other choice than to be with her. I could never be happy again without her.
@@XozainAkul Wow! You reunited? Congratulations then! That's such a rarity in these sort of scenarios, I think. I know we are strangers on the internet, however I really would love to hear your whole story about you two. How exactly did you go about "not giving up"?
@@Checkmate1138 to cut long story VERY short: it was me who didn’t give up. I didn’t try to force her, I just did my very best to view things from her point of view, to understand her fears... She says she can’t believe how I succeed to bring her back, because she was extremely determined to brake up. She tought we (especially me) would be better off if we brake up. I convinced her it is not true. It was all about her unfounded fears... Frankly, I don’t think someone else could fix a relationship in such a situation :)
@@XozainAkul I am in awe out of admiration for your incredible fortune. So amazing for that to have happened. Well i do wish you and your partner everlasting love and happiness, and O hope that you too may be better about understanding each other, so that you guys may continue loving each other from until forever.
Truth is, Rhett made himself kind of unlikable with the mocking attitude he had toward her. The book goes more into this than the movie. I know that Scarlett was cluster B personality mess, but part of me can't fault her for being mean and angry toward him.
Rhett Butler was hip to her tricks and she could not stand that about him. Scarlett's mockeries were well deserved IMO.
She was a user and con artist all of her life and she didn't care about the trail of bodies left in her wake.
She wasn't a full blown psychotic but she had tendencies.
@@johnnypastrana6727 " Scarlett's mockeries were well deserved IMO."
Sure, but if Rhett's ultimate intention was to make her love him the way she loved Ashley, his "game" fell flat on the face.
@@AI-ch3if I agree. I think Rhett was a pretty good "con artist" and "user" himself. "Hip to her tricks" ? Wasn't it Rhett that chased after Scarlett for years, even knowing she wanted to be with Ashley? lol That doesn't show being "hip" to anything. Please...lol Isn't it true the really only true friend Rhett has, is Belle Watling. And he didn't even pick up on how crazy Watling was about him. lol
He was also a lot older in the movie than he was portrayed in the book. One comment by Rhett that I agree with when he told Scarlett, they were "both bad lots."
@@terrihilder8217 But Rhett finally had his epiphany. Did Scarlett really have hers? If she did it came too late.
This is a trait of his personality, just as Scarlett was spoiled and without regard for the feelings of others, including dreaming of a man who belonged to another woman - a good friend of hers. So Rhett was the person with the right artillery to pair with a woman as complicated as that, with the right willpower and temperament. At one point this mockery was mere façade to hide the pain or some other emotion. This is purely a couple of ups and downs.
Reminds me of Evita, ea woman asks in their own due time:
"So what happens now? What happens nowwww? Where am I going to? WHERE am I goi...
--Don't ASK. ANYMORE.
"
WHEW. COLD.
Its sad that No one filmed second part with happy end for them
0:06- Too little too late, Scarlett.
Scarlett had it coming. We all knew it!
Hey Brie Larson I’m a fan of your work. and I subscribed to your youtube channel. do you love the movie gone with the wind because I do.
Proof you do not even know yourself until such time as you are FORCED to be on ur own! Involuntary isolation & hardship will SHOW/PROVE u everything u need to know for the rest of time. It's like only once it's hurt so mf bad can Life possible be worth all the actual bad it inevitably bring u. Like I never even knew how strong I was until I literally HAD to be. Tested. Tried and True!
I hear TARA.True I hear......
She's going home to Tara.
What would make the ending much more tragic, But after losing everyone and everything, Yes, she went back to Tara, We’ll have to live the rest of her life all alone and dying alone. And she’ll be nothing but a corpse in the land. Tell me if that will be a more satisfying ending. But after losing everything made her open her eyes and taught her a lesson. Scarlett might commit suicide after losing Rhett. But no, she’s not going to give up. If Scarlett had given up on life and committing suicide, That would make her a loser. But even though she lost everything, she will fight to live another day. That’s what makes Scarlet a winner.
Funny how a movie can mimic reality just like every woman who knows that she has lost. Everything will never admit that she was wrong and doing anything that she did that was wrong. She will always cover it up and try to push forward even as miserable as her life is, I find this so comical, why can’t people just stand up and say I did the wrong thing why can’t people just say I was wrong especially women they never can seem to no matter how bad it was or how bad what they did was wrong
pls write me last words of Rhett. Thanks a lot !! marco, Italy
Frankly, my dear, i don't give a damn
This poor lady, everything she had lost in all her life - and now also Bonne! So HOW could he leave her NOW . . . ? What a terrible man!!!
because he SUCKS!
But This beautiful Southern Belle is Going Home Back To Tara, and Will find a way to win her Husband Back.
hahaha i love your sarcasm!
She was no poor lady, but a manipulative and capricious girl. Rhett was the only one who could match temper. In this story, life came as a lesson.
1:05
I was its sequel Scarlett mini series...I must say that it was very good ...they continued the story where they left it....the nature of the characters remained the same ofcourse not the actors themselves...they ones who want to see what happens next should really watch it
That sequel was s...hit. Even the margaret Mitchell estate was embarrased with that novel... or the series. The only "sequel" the legal estate aprove is "Rhett Butler´s people".
Katie britt
I believe Scarlett only ever loved Scarlett. She was never fit to be a mother or a wife. So perfect ending for her and good for Rhett too finally doing what's right for him.

@@thejma724 right but still.. he loved her and it was sad they broke up in the moment she realised she loved him. I think he shoulve give it a chance.
There are times that is too late, and yes unfortunately
I think he should.
@@jackprescott9652 Even if he should, she had to learn a hard lesson first before he would come back.
Too late for Rhett
the original MGTOW
Do you think that Rhett will get back to Scarlett?
Yes.
Scarlett is Going Home Back To Tara.
No. No man should ever return to a woman like Scarlett.
He should have accepted her apology and forgiven her
My dear you´re such a child. You think with an apology all the past can be corrected.
For the Answer of comments, Wouldn't it be a more satisfying ending if scarlet committed suicide after losing rhett?
This is what happens when a man falls for a devil with a beautiful face. In the end, at least he made the decision to leave a selfish woman because she drove him to madness.
Let this be a lesson for the men in real life who allowed themselves to be destroyed by a woman like that.
We don`t need the crappy sequel Scarlet Novel. We know by this time, that Rhett a big alpha male, with that big ego, would never trust in a woman like Scarlett no matter what she tells him. The only guarantee he had that his wife was loyal to him is Melanie. Now that Melanie is gone, there`s really no reason to think that eventually Ashley would have an affair with his wife. That`s why he leaves as soon as he knows Melanie is dead and that she asked Scarlet to look after her family. So no matter what kind of plans Scarlett have to gain Rhett`s again, she would eventually fail. Scarlett never cared for any of their husbands, nor Melanie feelings, nor her sisters. And Rhett at the end, understands what Ashley always knew, Scarlet is anything but wife material. She was a nasty, selfish and mean human being who deserved to end alone.
Rhett was a misogynistic coward
They both look terrific in photos but never felt any real chemistry between VL and CG.
You weren't watching the same movie I was. I saw plenty of chemistry. If you have read anything about VL's and CG's working relationship in making GWTW, it is said they had a good professional relationship. There were a number of pretty hot scenes in GWTW, imo. Rhett scooping her up and carrying her up the staircase two steps at a time, comes to mind. There was chemistry in the movie. The Scarlett and Rhett characters were both kind of lousy as people. However both Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh were outstanding in their respective roles.
I have seen this film several times, and i really don´t see Scarlett "loving" Rhett anytime in the film. Sure, she loves to be a wealthy woman and probably she enjoy sex with Rhett, but we can see that, even after having her daughter she still have a photo of Ashley. So how at the end she realizes loving Rhett since years ago, is very stupid. I think is a fail in the plot or is a fail in the Directing.
