That day, when Vivien Leighs Scarlett OHara slapped Butterfly McQueen for being what Rhett Butler called a simple darkie, the white audience roared with laughter. But Day-Day was appalled. Matilda Ford immediately silenced the laughing audience when she shouted with irrepressible anger, Hit her back! You better hit that heifer back! You couldnt hear a peep in the theater for the rest of the movie.Nice column. Thanks. Stanley Crouch has a good feel for popular culture.
