Gone With The Wind (DVD 2001)

Decided to buy classic must own/watch movie loved by all generations to replace my VHS copy.

Cant wait to watch on dvd quality.

Having converted most of my old video collection to DVD I was thrilled to find this film gem in digital format.
The Classic film is very long but it doesn't seem like it! It's good to see it on DVD.

A fantastic 4hr long film although I must admit the time did seem to fly over as the film is engrossing! Doesnt drag like other films.

Titanics 3hrs seeme longer than this!

Recommend both seller and buyer.

I had read the book so wanted to see the film. Its an absolute classic. Brilliant...
Its quite a long film, well worth watching with a nice glass of wine and box of Chocs.
Just a true classic which was worty of its Oscar

I love this dvd it was so simple to get and it is a famous classic.My friends have all been asking to borrow it.

I was not expecting such a clear picture,the sound track was perfect. the CD was double sided.I am more than happy with this.

This movie is one of the best ever made. It's portrayal of the deep south during the american revolution is unsurpassed.

This is my fav film and l have only ever seen it on video, my hubby treated me for christmas and got me it on DVD, the quality and sound were great and the picture fab, l also got part 2. must have classic DVD

i like this film as i grow up watching it with my and i love the way the ladys in the film dress. i found this film on ebay and i look on ebay now for things u cant get in the shops now so its really good. i love these films that why i brough it.

really pleased with the dvd (gone with the wind), good delivery, well packaged .................................................

I bought this for my daughter she had it on video and wanted it on DVD she is pleased with it but would have liked the old Black & white version.
Fast delivery and as decribed.

It's no surprise that this film won countless awards. Don't pick it if you want some light viewing (it's four hours long), but it is one of my favourite films of all time.

I got Gone With The Wind because its one of the best films ever made,no collection is complete without it.Great actors,Great Story and Great Direction make it a must see movie.Ideal on a saturday night with your loved one,a take-away and a good bottle of wine.Film buffs heaven.Even tho its a long film,time just passes by and the ending seems to come to soon.The relationship between Rhett and Scarlet is like to many relationships of today,where the lack of trust,and bad communication causes a lot of promblems but in reality all people need to do is just be honest with each other and say what they feel.

Having converted most of my old video collection to DVD I was thrilled to find this film gem in digital format. If you watch this in widescreen format, it really does the battle scene great justice; coupled with surround sound, you'll be gripped by the amazing cinematography. I would recommend the director's cut that includes scenes about the relationship between the lead character and his estranged wife and helps you to understand the motivation behind his decision. The run time is 183 minutes for the directors cut and 120 minutes for the cinema version. I was, however, disappointed by the lack of extras, which any fan of this classic would expect to be included. There's only a 20-minute interview with the director and other shot "making-of" vignettes.

I liked the film, looked in ebay and found it for a reasonable price.
The delivery by the seller was excellent.

Gone with the Wind is quite simply one of the greatest films ever made. Its a masterpiece on all levels of production: the acting is first rate, the epic story is breathtaking and awe inspiring, the cinematography and the depth of detail is extraordinary and the production values are astounding.

Vivien Leigh stars as Scarlett O'Hara, a young girl living with her family on their southern cotton plantation, Tara. She is desperately in love with Ashley Wilkes (Leslie Howard), an attraction which proves hopeless when it is announced that he is to wed his cousin, Melanie Daniels (Olivia de Havilland).

At a party at the Wilkes', she tells Ashley of her love for him but is spurned. Rhett Butler (Clark Gable), who has overheard their conversation, takes a fancy to Scarlett and makes a pass at her. She turns him down however, still obsessed with Ashley and painfully jealous of Melanie.

Apart from all this, Scarlett's life is perfect. However, the outbreak of the American Civil War throws everything into chaos and changes her family life and that of the whole country forever.

The film charts Scarlett's life from her early teenage years up until her adult life, charting her adventures in Georgia during the horrific attacks on the town as well as her reclaiming Tara after the war and her marriage to Rhett Butler. It also vividly chronicles the American Civil War in horrific detail, at one point depicting the massive scale of injuries as Scarlett tends to wounded soldiers.

A magnificent epic that seduces, shocks, thrills, inspires and uplifts, the film won eight Academy Awards - including Best Picture, Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress for Hattie McDaniels' hilarious performance as Mammy, Scarlett's maid - and is an absolute classic. A must see for everyone!

Bought for a friend but am told by her it was a great film, Gone with the wind is one of the best classic films made.

One to watch if you have 4 hours to spare.

Ahhh, Gone With the Wind, that title says it all. The classic of all classics. This was the last Hollywood movie of its kind. Warning this review does contain Spoilers.

It is well acted, wonderfully photographed in vibrant technicolour and it features some of the best set pieces ever filmed in cinematic history. It was also produced by David O'Selznick, who won several Oscars for his productions.

The story is about Scarlett (Vivien Leigh), an upper-class girl who has a deep life-long love for Ashley (Leslie Howard). But he is about to marry the shy but pretty Melanie (Olivia de Havilland). So SCarlett gets married to Charles Hamilton to make Ashley jealous. However her plan doesn't work. Then her Charles get killed during the war. This is when Rhett Butler comes in (brilliantly played by Clark Gable), he tries to seduce Scarlett and announces his love for her but she is set on Ashley, even though he is married to Melanie. Then the Cavalier army (their side) starts losing the war and has to retreat to the Yankees. They then burn down Atlanta in one of the most famous scenes ever filmed. Then after running away with Melanie and her daughter, Scarlett gets back to find her mother dead and her father sick. This is when she vows never to grow hungry again.

Ashley comes back from the war after being kidnapped to find Melanie and his son but also Scarlett who still has undying love for him. Scarlett then marries again to raise tax money to stay in their home and she opens a timber business with Ashley to raise money. Then Scarlett gets attacked when shipping lumber so her new husband and Ashley go out to the area to attack the rebels. This is then where Rhett enters again and he saves Ashley but can't stop Scarlett's husband being shot. Rhett later proposes to Scarlett and they get married. However her heart is still with Ashley. After incidents where their daughter dies and Melanie dies, Scarlett realises she does really love Rhett but he leaves her with the famous line, 'Frankly my dear I don't give a damn.' But she vows to win him back, 'Tomorrow is another day.'

Overall one of the best films ever made. This is a must buy but be warned it is almost four hours long.

I first read the book when I was 15, staying up almost all night to finish it. Many years later i finally saw the film and recently decided I wanted to see it again. However, as it's so long, I thought it would be best to own it so I could start and stop when I needed to.
It's a fantastic portrayal of Margaret Mitchell's epic about the old South during the Civil War. It is 70 years old, but the colours are so fresh and vibrant and the scenes are on a huge scale, making it a truly spectacular film still today.
It portrays the misery of war and its aftermath and what it does to the eople caught up in it. Throughout we have the figure of Scarlett O'Hara who is selfish, yet very strong and determined and brings her family through the poverty they hav fallen into.
But she learns too bitterly that money cannot buy her happiness and realises it just too late to save her own marriage to that flambouyant character Rhett Butler. It must have one of the most famous (nearly) last lines ever.

This is my favourite film of all time and I wanted to own it on dvd to be able to watch it whenever I wanted to.It is a true epic about the American civil war with all the great ingredients for a truly heartbreaking tale.The special effects are fantastic considering it was made a very long time ago.A fantastic film!!!A++++++++++++++++++ starring Vivian Leigh,Clark Gable and Olivia De Havilland.You must watch this film!

I never received product.my money was (gone with the wind)david2432.can't write anymore.this is the truth.
