Epic romantic drama based on Margaret Mitchell's Pulitzer-winning
novel set during the American Civil War. Southern belle Scarlett
O'Hara (Vivien Leigh) often uses men to get what she wants, but is
unable to get the one man she truly desires, Ashley Wilkes (Leslie
Howard). She soon meets her match in the roguish Captain Rhett
Butler (Clark Gable) and in the war itself which destroys the
genteel way of life she has always known. With determination she
rebuilds her life from the shattered remains the Union Army leaves
behind. Despite its sometimes troubled production (director George
Cukor was replaced by Victor Fleming, with Sam Wood brought in when
Fleming's health failed), the film won ten Oscars, including Best
Picture, Best Director and Best Actress.
"The most revealing, penetrating book on filmmaking I know of . . ."--King Vidor
David O. Selznick was a unique figure in the golden Hollywood studio era. He produced some of the greatest and most memorable American films ever made--notably, Rebecca, A Star Is Born, Anna Karenina, A Farewell to Arms, and, above all, Gone With the Wind. Selznick's absolute power and artistic control are evidenced in his impassioned, eloquent, witty, and sometimes rageful memos to directors, writers, stars and studio executives, writings that have become almost as famous as his films. Newsweek wrote,"I can't imagine how a book on the American movie business could be more illuminating, more riveting or more fun to read than this collection of David Selznick's memos.
