Gone with the Wind

“The greatest romance of all time!”

Scarlett O'Hara (Vivien Leigh), the headstrong daughter of a Georgia plantation owner, learns at a barbecue that the man she wants, Ashley Wilkes (Leslie Howard), is about to marry his cousin Melanie Hamilton (Olivia de Havilland). The Civil War arrives before she can do anything about it. Victor Fleming follows her through war and Reconstruction, and Scarlett keeps clinging to Ashley while Rhett Butler (Clark Gable), a cynical profiteer, keeps watching her.
