Gone with the Wind

“Gone with the Wind”

I have watched the film named 'Gone with the Wind' right now. It is really a long film. I got so tired. But the movie gave me a lot of hints to think about American cultures. The movie describes the paradoxical aspect of U.S.A. The civilization of Old South is the one that Americans lost by themselves through the Civil War, but even so, they like it so that there is a root from European countries, that is related with old classicism. The notion of equality might be oriented from the history that this country finally gets independent from the British Empire and its philosophy. Now, I know that to understand the historical relationships with Britain and other European countries are important for understanding U.S.A. Focusing on the movie itself, I was surprised that the director spent four hundred thousand dollars to prepare things only, such as casting, story settings, and so on. But I completely agree that Vivian Leigh was the most appropriate actress for Scarlett Ohara.
