‘Gone with the Wind’ Movie Summary

Gone with the Wind tells the tale of Scarlett O’Hara and the three loves of her life; Tara (her family plantation), Ashley Wilkes, and Rhett Butler. Through three husbands and one child, Scarlet uses all of her might to preserve Tara through the destruction of the American Civil War. She pines shamelessly for Ashley Wilkes despite his marriage to the saintly Melanie Hamilton. Scarlett is her own worse enemy as she realizes too late that her true love is a man a lot like her, Rhett Butler.

Great podcast, nice to see a long one again. Chasing Amy is next? I was expecting Metropolis. What is the other podcast for July?

Metropolis is the one after Chasing Amy, so it will be those two for July.

You get to have your picks twice in a row? Nice. I must say you certainly have the most unpredictable choices. Stuff like L’aventura, nights of cabria, McCabe and Mrs Miller, and Metropolis would get a lot of votes in something like sight and sound. But you also pick stuff like enter the dragon and chasing amy:)

Actually, Lori picked Metropolis, but it’s in my top list.

Times when Scarlett actually wanted to be with Rhett, but Rhett didn’t get the memo:
1) Morning after the “rape scene”. Don’t ask me why, but some women really are like that.
2) When Rhett & Bonnie first return from England.
3) And a bit later, when Scarlett is sick after the miscarriage.

Thing about Scarlett is, lots of men want her but she’s never believed that anyone actually likes her, not even Rhett (and why would they?) She doesn’t even like herself, despite being horribly selfish.
