I love classic movies. I;m just saying that both these women are manipulative b******.
Rhett didn’t say “Dear, I don’t give a damn’ because Scarlett was a graceful woman. She was a b*tch who used Rhett and other dudes to get what she wants.
Scarlett is a multi-faceted character and Ilsa is a good woman and far from being a bitch.
I always considered Scarlett to be the ultimate survivor, whereas she and Rhett were very close in character and values. I once saw GWTW on the big screen in the 70’s. There must have been more than a few husbands/boyfriends that were dragged into seeing a Saturday night showing. Towards the end when Rhett says to Scarlett, “I don’t give a damn” and walks out on her, there was huge spontaneous applause and whistles from most of the men in the audience. It was funny moment and GWTW is one of my all-time favorite movies.
