    Another tremendous tour of Tara. The set was taken apart and glad pieces of the set was saved. Save it for further generations. Thanks for going there!

    Great vlog! One small correction, though. You kept mentioning that the one window was where Scarlett shot the Yankee from. Actually, in the movie, she shot him on the staircase inside Tara and he tumbled backwards to the floor. That window was the one Melanie yelled out to Suellen, Carrine, Gerald and Mammy that the gunshot they heard was Scarlett cleaning a gun. No big deal; this was still very interesting!

    Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!!!! Loved this vlog so much, Jordan!!! I hope that your Mom enjoyed seeing this with you. Peter is such a wealth of knowledge on GWtW. He is Hilarious, Entertaining, and is just fun to be around! His passion for this project is incredible. I am so glad that you got to meet him. Thank you for vlogging this before it was sold. I honestly thought it would have sold for so much more!!! Hopefully it will end up at a museum so that it can be enjoyed for many years to come. Jordan, you always do an Amazing Job with your vlogs, but I think the best part was your smile standing in front of the window that Scarlett shot the Yankee. Pure Bliss! Can't wait for tomorrow, Because...... Tomorrow is another day!

Can't wait for tomorrow's Gone With The Wind experience!

    This was so amazing to see in a vlog and I can only imagine how it felt in person. As I watched, I wondered if anyone like Olivia De Havilland or Mickey Kuhn who are very much alive or any relatives of other cast members were interested in purchasing such an iconic piece of movie history. Thank you for introducing us to Peter and all of his knowledge! Happy Canada Day to all the Canadian Lionhearts!

    AGAIN! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU JORDAN! I just couldn't get Peter to let me in to see Tara and NOW knowing that the door will be gone too is fresh hell for me! I grew up as a child in that area but my family moved away. Trust me, if I had known, I would have been helping him a long time ago. I have talked to him on a long phone conversation and I know he has done everything he could to save it. This is killing me. I went to the Jonesboro museum. Hope you did too to see the Jonesboro neckties and that hat! History! I will have to scoot to the Margaret Mitchell museum before the door goes! Again, much thanks and love!

    Thank you so much for this vlog. I have a History Degree from West Georgia College in Carrollton, Georgia (Susan Myrick's hometown). I was born in Atlanta at Fort McPherson (Now Tyler Perry Studios) and am a huge fan of Gone with The Wind and Civil War History. I encourage you to take extra care to preserve these EXCELLENT vlogs. With the pandemic, who knows what the future holds, and we may never experience such wonderful history in person again. You do a fantastic job with your vlogs! I discovered your work yesterday about the Allman Brothers and now I am hooked! I live in Northern California now and of course miss that part of the world and it's culture. With time, so much of that culture has been obliterated or modified. You help to keep it alive. Carry on with your priceless work and thank you!

    Scarlet didnt shoot the Yankee through the window. She shot him as he was coming toward her in the house, right at the bottom of the stairs. Melony then pops her head out of the window to tell the rest of the family that Scarlet accidently set the gun off so that they didnt come in and see the dead man. Its my favorite scene with Melony because she is so proper and reserved but its her idea to rob him.

      @PewterFella 5 лет назад

      You are correct Andrew (long admirer of the book and the movie here) it is also the window where Mammy calls to Scarlett when Scarlett leaves the Tarleton Twins on the front porch of Tara. I always learned the arch window that is shown in this video IS the window Mammy calls to Scarlett and the same window on the stair landing behind Scarlett when she shoots the Yankee. ......A bit of Trivia in the opening credits of the movie ... The Tarleton Twins the actors playing them are identified incorrectly. Also Ellen O'Hara played by Barbara O"Neil ... O'Neil is spelled incorrectly.

    Now that would definitely be a Museum that I would love to see!!! They put up museums for all kinds of garbage that people don't really care about. This would be a Museum of history AND entertainment!!! It's a shame that the Clark Gable Museum in Ohio didn't bid for it.
    These people who have ignored it will be whining some day about why it no longer exists and it is going to be because nobody gave a damn!!! Artifacts like this just don't surface every day! Hollywood should be ashamed for letting them get away!!!
    Wasn't it Steven Spielberg who bought Clark Gable's Oscar and donated it back to the Academy for safekeeping? The same thing should have been done here!!!

      Again, I feel kinda dumb. Did not know that the town of "Tara" was a real place. Peter Bonner was a waterfall of information! When I saw the movie as a teenager, I thought it was real ( I know, that was the whole point) , but as I grew older I discovered it was filmed on a sound stage (?) And It was fake. I have stone mountain roots, and I've always loved the old south - I've said for years I was born in the wrong century!

    Go Betty!! 😁 I hope someone from a historical society
    or Hollywood connection will bid on what's left of the remaining movie set!! It would be a crying shame if it was just left to rot!! 😢 Good timing Jordan! You just may be one of the last people to have your photo taken in front of that iconic doorway from that classic scene that proves when the going gets rough the tough get going and think that sums up the character of Scarlet well! In guessing a fairly accurate portrayal of a
    Southern Belle hopefully minus the brattiness. She was a force to be reckoned with and no doubt modeled after real life women who were just as tough and who survived the war by sheer grit n determination but not necessasarily acknowledged for their contributions! I salute them for their bravery n love of family!! Loved this vlog!! 😁

    Fascinating vlog, Jordan! It's too bad a museum isn't preserving and displaying this stuff. I live in Georgia, and this barn is literally the worst place to be storing these artifacts. They'll likely be devoured by termites. I hope not!
