"Gone With the Wind" is beautifully filmed and edited. The use of color, music and other forms of mise en scene are spectacular, which a whole other class period could be devoted to for discussion. One of the scenes that stood out to me was when one of the soldiers comes back from battle and exclaims "It's over, the war is over, we surrendered!"

I had to leave for a club meeting (for literally 5 minutes) and it was hard to pry myself away. I must say NOT what I expected. Also, I totally called the deaths of Bonnie (foreshadowing) and Melanie (classic Little Women-like Beth character). -Elle | ||
