Summary
Margaret Mitchell's Immortal tale of the old South has Leigh as Scarlett and Gable as Rhett. The burning of Atlanta was a high water mark for screen excitement. As poet Ogden Nash put it, The Civil War was quite a fight and not a mere diversion; I never knew how tough it was before [producer] Dave Selznick's version.
