This is the pinnacle of “old Hollywood” movie-making, yet still holds up as one great film. Top-notch acting, great drama, beautifully crafted. It IS “Hollywood”.

“Gone With The Wind”,as cliched it sounds to call it the best picture of all time, remains just that. Made before my time, it still ropes me in with it’s great story and that cast of immortals at the zenith of their careers; Gable, Leigh, DeHavilland, McDaniel, Howard- will there ever be another cast like that at the top of their form?
So honored in it’s time, I find it sad that people tend to pass it over as “too easy a choice”, preferring to jump on the “Citizen Kane” bandwagon, or “The Bicycle Thief”.GWTW is a movie’s movie, one that has it all. As for the rest of them; “Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn.”
