    Gone With The Wind

    I saw the film in 89 and that print looks nothing like the DVD....it was muted, almost to the point of being in black and white....reds were dusty orange, blues were gray, and the contrast was out of whack....when the 89 vhs came out, I was surprised and impressed that the colors were more vibrant.

    Gone With The Wind

    I'd like to get one that is representative to 1939. I really don't think there would be an outcry. Let's face it, most of the public doesn't know or care about such things, because if they did, the current version wouldn't look or sound as it does.

    Gone With The Wind

    DeHavilland hasn't tried to distance herself......she appeared at the 98 re-issue and just loved it! Said that it brought back great memories. She is very proud of the film. As far as Alicia Rhett goes, she left Hollywood early on and is an accomplished artist. It isn't so much that she...

    Gone With The Wind

    There are several instances of dialogue change, but off-hand: 1. The opening scene: When Scarlett prepares to leave the porch she originally exclaimed "It isn't true; It can't be true. Ashley loves me." The first line was in the original, the 1989 prints, and the TBS/TNT broadcasts but has...

    Gone With The Wind

    Oh, yeah! How could I forget??!!! I would love to have a commentary with Olivia DeHavilland and other surviving stars (Fred Crane, Ann Rutherford, Evelyn Keyes, Alicia Rhett "India Wilkes", and Cammie King.)

    Gone With The Wind

    I am so excited about the prospects for an Ultra-Resolution release of Gone With the Wind. Here are some things I wish they would include (although, I am probably dreaming if I think they will include them all.) -Better framing (some of the letters and notes people read in the film are...
