Miscellaneous Movie Musings the Sequel

[Gemini Cricket]

I had a lot of computer work to do today as I make up hours at my old job. So, being the only one in the office, I decided to play Gone with the Wind on one of the computers near me just for noise. I noticed a couple of things that I find interesting:

Rhett proposes to Scarlett in the same room where her husband's funeral just occurred, possibly on the same day. That's so awful and in character for both of them. Love it.

The "David Copperfield" reading scene is one of my favorites. The editing in that scene is great for back then.

It totally makes sense why Rhett loves Bonnie so much. She's the one person in the movie (besides Belle) that loves him. And yet even that is in question as she's always talking about her pony and a doll in a couple of scenes.

Interesting that Scarlett and Ashley are caught together but only Scarlett gets blamed for what happened.

I seem to remember in the book that Scarlett gets married a day before Melanie... I could be wrong...

In the scene where Scarlett's sisters are picking cotton, Scarlett enters the shot and we hear "Too bad about that!" but her lips aren't moving.
