It's one of the best shots in the film!

Because of the dramatic "I don't give a damn" sentence I felt like I was supposed to ship Clark and Vivien and thus feel sad for her because Clark left her. But I believe she confessed and felt her love toward him only because of her pride: she wouldn't want to get together with Asley right away after his wife's death even though she asked her to, and though they both love each other.

One of the best filmed movie in the history of cinema, but the ending is absolutely worst.

i would rate it higher but that first half is so exhausting that i really just can't overlook it and even though i liked scarlett o'hara at times, she was just too tiring for me as well. the best scenes were the melanie and rhett centered ones but what can i say, i've always been partial to de havilland and gable. it's a great production but not really something i would watch again, especially not in its entirety.

Victor Fleming's Gone with the Wind, in its true essence, is a case study on the Old American way of living where pride and honor were the very essence of human existence.The movie is undoubtedly one of cinema's greatest marvels and is a living testament to cinema's timelessness.

As famous as it is for a reason. Re-watching it, I'm always suprised how it gets smaller in scale and more intimate as it progresses, and gains intensity. William Cameron Menzies' work is stunning, and went way beyond the realm of the modern day production designer.

Just stand back for a sec and think of this just from a production angle. It is a monumental achievement in every way...staggering to think of the details involved. (and if you think this is a racist movie, you haven't seen many films of the 20s, 30s and 40s...trust me, this movie is not racist).

A masterpiece. You never saw characters as challenging as Scarlett and Rhett in American films before this, nor a marriage drama where the two are equally rotten enough to deserve each other, so nasty and (shock!) can't work out their differences in the end. It refuses to pander to the values of its time.

An incredibly well-crafted film telling the story of not only a romance but also of strong women in a time when the world as they know it is falling apart. The cast led by Vivien Leigh is amazing. I find it important to discuss how much of this film, as perfect as it may be technically, is actually told from a "Southern perspective" of that time and what can be interpreted as racist in a more contemporary context.

Celebrated as an American classic. Makes sense seeing how over half our nation's citizens probably (definitely) long for the days of slavery.

Frankly, My Dear, I don't give a damn ! Magnifique film avec sans cesses des rebondissements sous un fond de Guerre de sécession splendide...

Definitely the best revisionist, racist apologia for the South and its slave-owning gentry that I have ever seen.

Some of the most charming and enchanting cinematography I have ever seen in a film, ever .. and I'm sure probably that I ever will. Though even the stunning cinematography was not able to coast a cast of characters that annoyed the hell out of me. Glad I saw it though.

My favorite film - I saw it 20 times at least. Educational for married women that always are dreaming at something else that they have, also from this movie I've learned that social etiquette is very important and the films shows how people like main protagonists are disproved by society and how important is to fight for your goals no matter what if you want to succeed.

Recently re-fell back in love with this one. Warner did a fantastic job on the Blu-ray restoration and It's the best I've ever seen it look.

watched the movie again last night. Its weird that it is now that I get to appreciate the superb production design - I mean - not in the epic scale of things which is easily noticeable but also in the use of color and lighting and rain (for instance) for enhancing the mood. What a rich experience.
