You have to look at the top of the screen at the start of the pullback. You can't see Tara until top of the background rolls up.

The shot of Gerald and Scarlett under the tree.... You can see where they recomposited the background, as a pan rolls up the clouds, eventually revealing Tara, which should already have been seen.

Probably the 1954 version, but I read somewhere that Selznick made some minor dialogue changes to that version.

So, even if they lifted that shot in 1954, they would have placed the titles exactly where they were in the frame in the 1939 U.S. release?

In 1954, they took the original shot and moved it up one sprocket hole, cropping the top of the final shot. I was wondering if the text was originally higher up on the tree.

But the restoration team said that shots with text were recomposited. That is one of the shots, but I didn't know if they just lifted it like the other shots or repositioned the title on the frame. If the shot originally had more of the tree at the top, then the way it is now, THE END would have...

Would THE END have originally been placed on the tree, and not blocking out Scarlett?

I am just wondering if they repositioned all of the text in 1954, from the textless footage. And since the last shot was reframed, if THE END title was separately repositioned over the reframed footage, or just lifted up along with it.

Anyone?

I'm confused. That Ned Price article says that sections with narrative texts were recomposited in 1954. Does that mean that the several scenes with onscreen titles were also changed, for example THE END, Siege!, etc.?
