Review of Gone with the Wind (1939) by Kevin M. W — 25 Nov 2011
The American Civil War, a contest so piddling that we are still contesting its basic arguments even today (hello Tea Partiers!), is only a blurry background and mere plot device in this lavish chick flick dedicated to perhaps the screen's largest anti-heroine, Scarlett O'Hara, who pointedly makes her selfishness a cult religion.
How a work about a soul so unappealing can still be attractive is the magic here.
