Gone with the Wind Movie Review

"Do u ever think of marrying just for fun?" This quote said by Rhett Butler to Scarlett. It's pretty ironic that Rhett said this because it seems that that's all that Scarlett does. I rated this movie 3 stars out of 5. It was pretty entertaining and kept me on the edge of my seat. What I didn't like was how the movie didn't really have a point and the ending was really disapointing. This movie could fall in the genres of romance and drama. Throughout the movie there were many unsuspecting deaths, civil war drama and a very complicated love triangle.

During the civil war in the movie one soldier only died that was of any importance to the movie. When the war ended, important characters started dying left and right. They were dropping like trees at a lumber jack convention. The love triangle of Ashley, Scarlett and Rhett was very exciting. I think that Clark Gable (Rhett Butler in the movie) did a great acting job, because he was very convincing and really captivated the audience with the bad boy style of Mr. Butler. The Civil War aspect of the movie really showed how the south really hated the yankees and how all the rich people became poor really fast. The war shaped many of the characters personality. Scarlett had to learn how to work in the fields and how to do things for herself.

During Gone with the Wind there many shocking deaths, a love triangle that was never fixed and a very traumatic war. I believe that th movie title means that when the war swept through, the southerner's lifestyles were Gone with the Wind. In the beginning Scarlett's father says this about his land, "It will come to you, this love of the land. There's no gettin' away from it if you're Irish." At the end of the movie when things are as bad as can be, Scarlett returns to her home and the land.
