Exactly....the cinematography alone is amazing. Vivian Leigh, a total unknown, was in almost every scene of a 4 hour movie, and gave the greatest performance i’ve ever seen from an actress. Name one today who could pull that role off...now that’s laughable. The Hollywood of today is a joke. If its not a “remake”..its silly animated fantasy cartoons.
It is definitely my favorite movie, and I was raised a Yankee ;) (in my defense, I have lived in Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Arkansas, and now southern Ohio on the WV border) Vivien Leigh was probably one of the most beautiful women to ever grace the silver screen (Audrey Hepburn is also up there). Too bad she had such a tragic life. My mom took me when I was 16 to see it on the big screen in 1989—the 50th anniversary. I still remember it fondly.
