David O. Selznick wanted <I>Gone with the Wind</I> to be somehow more than a movie, a film that would broaden the very idea of what a film could be and do and look like. In many respects he got what he worked so hard to achieve in this 1939 epic (and all-time box-office champ in terms of tickets sold), and in some respects he fell far short of the goal. While the first half of this Civil War drama is taut and suspenseful and nostalgic, the second is ramshackle and arbitrary. But there's no question that the film is an enormous achievement in terms of its every resource--art direction, color, sound, cinematography--being pushed to new limits for the greater glory of telling an American story as fully as possible. Vivien Leigh is still magnificently narcissistic, Olivia de Havilland angelic and lovely, Leslie Howard reckless and aristocratic. As for Clark Gable: we're talking one of the most vital, masculine performances ever committed to film. <I>--Tom Keogh</I>
Reader Reviews
This movie was great over 60 years ago and is just as awesome to this day. Some of the 'special effects' of Gone With The Wind may pale in comparison to our computer and digitally enhanced graphics now, but are still worth watching and experiencing nonetheless.
