Gone With The Wind
I finally finished it over the weekend. Thoughts:
- I'm not sure Scarlett had any redeeming qualities. I mean, she ends up alone on the stairs. Happy life to her.
- I haven't heard the name "Tara" so much since .... well.....a while back.
- Clark Gable was pretty good although I can't name another movie he was in.
- It was too long, but I guess epics are required to be too long.
- The movie went nuts in the last hour. In a 15 minute period there was a miscarriage, a death of a child from a horse riding incident, and the death of another character from exhaustion. And I thought the Civil War was brutal.
- I finally understand the "wear a curtain" Carol Burnett joke.
