Is Melanie supposed to be absolutely ignorant that Scarlett loves Ashley? She and Scarlett were very close since Charles died and Scarlett moved in with her and her aunt, but part of Scarlett's friendship is just a facade, because she promised her love that she'd look after Melanie. You'd think that it wouldn't take 8 or so years for someone to see Scarlett in Ashley's arms and pick up on something. - Whitney H. | Is Melanie supposed to be absolutely ignorant that Scarlett loves Ashley?

| + | What the deal with Scarlett's cleavage? Every other woman is dressed modestly except for Belle (no coincidence). Once Scarlett returns to Tara and her father, she takes to wearing her pink dress WAY unbuttoned, and after that it seems like the only time you don't see bare chest is when she's in mourning! But when she gets money and all these nice new clothes she does buy some dresses that cover her up more. This all seems quite scandalous to be in a movie in 1939. Someone mentioned "Aviator"--do you remember the cleavage discussion that went on with the board of censors? Yeah. How easy was it to get that much on screen for GWTW? | ||
