Gone with the Wind

Gone with the Wind (1939)

Set during the American Civil War and Reconstruction, this sweeping historical romance follows the headstrong Scarlett O'Hara as she fights to save her family's plantation, Tara, while her relationships with Rhett Butler and Ashley Wilkes shape her life. A major Hollywood epic, the film's nostalgic depiction of the antebellum South and slavery is historically distorted and reflects the prejudices of its production era.
