That was wonderful. I am 80. At the age of 16 we went to stay in a holiday cottage for 4 days. It never stopped raining and I never got out of bed. That first morning I found Gone with the Wind in a bookshelf and read it for 3 days until it was finished. The rain stopped and we went for a drive, Reading that book is one of my favourite memories.
Love that - thanks for sharing.👍🏼
Meant to be 🌹❤!
LOVE your story, and memories.
I am 66. I read Gone With The Wind in study hall. Could not put it down.
Onfg. My mo w as sick wuth breaks cancer when iw as little. I went to my aunts room or teh comfor and read moms books. I read gwtw at elast 10 times.
I've heard it said that when Hattie McDaniel was criticized for playing a maid, she said: "Better to play a maid than be one."
As a Southerner and NATIVE Virginian, with heritage and family that stretchs 250 years+ back in time, I was raised loving "Gone with the Wind" and Margaret Mitchell. She was a well balanced product of her time, and a proud Southern Lady. It's terrible that today's "political correctness" has hurt her legacy. You can't put a 2023 face on a 19th century and early 20th century time period. We learn from our history, and we also can be proud of our past........Without doing away with either. God bless y'all all🙏🤠
I just finished Gone with the Wind. Easily one of the greatest books ever written. Also gives an alternative perspective on history which may be arguably close to the fact at times. From Kashmir.
I’m a 75 year old Caucasian female, born 11/06/1947 at Piedmont Hospital in Buckhead, on Peachtree Street. I grew up in a different era. My mother was Margaret Mitchell’s age. But I did grow up in the Atlanta area. Unless you were born and bred in the South, you really have no concept of what we were taught and felt. I graduated from high school in 1966. I was married and one child when Martin Luther King was assassinated. I can assure there was nothing but tears and grief from our home. I still feel that Dr. King was a Prophet, sent here by God, to teach us to Love. So many people judging other people gets us nowhere. GOD IS LOVE! Margaret Mitchell was a Scorpio. So am I! I’d like to think that we’re kindred spirits! “JUDGE NOT LEST YE BE JUDGED.” ❤️🙏
No
Here here!
Thank you…..my sentiments exactly. You are correct!👍
There should be a movie made about Miss Margaret’s life, her childhood, family life, how she got started, etc.
There was with Shannon Dorehty as Margaret/90210.
I just found it on RUclips called Burning Passion the Margaret Mitchell Story. I'm about to watch it right now. Gone With the Wind has always been my all time favorite movie and I inherited a copy of the book from my Mama, who was as much a fan of the book and movie as I am! I loved watching the movie with Mama every time it came on television! Such great memories!!!
Was thinking the same thing , her life was amazing, the real Scarlet O'Hara was Margaret .
You JUST watched it!
I grew up in Atlanta. In 1939 my dad played the trumpet in the Georgia Military Academy band (high school now known as Woodward Academy). When GWTW premiered at the Loew’s Grand Theatre, Dad marched down Peachtree Street, passing close to Clark Gable and his wife Carole Lombard, Vivian Leigh and her husband Lawrence Olivier, Olivia DeHavilland, and others.
Wow. Thank you for that story.
Wow! WOW!🥰
But not 'Mammie', since she had to enter through the back entrance
@pheonix75287 She wasn't at the premiere unfortunately. Gable almost skipped in protest but Hattie pushed him to go.
My Dad told me a story when he was in grade school around 1927 or 1928, his teacher was a good friend of Margaret Mitchell's. She would tell the class that her friend was writing a book. At that time the book did not have a name. That book was "Gone with The Wind". She would visit Miss Mitchell at her apartment in Atlanta and recalls seeing chapter 1 was on the couch, chapter 2 on the coffee table: etc. This story will always stick with me. Thank you Dad for the great stories that has enriched my life.
Margaret Mitchell was a woman ahead of her time. She did a lot incognito for the Black community in the US and also wrote a cheerful letter to Hattie McDaniel. GWTW was a wonderful movie and a masterpiece! God Bless the soul of Margaret Mitchell. She will definitely not be forgotten.
My grandmother was born one year before Margaret Mitchell was born in Green County, Ga. She was a Suffragette and her back never touched the back of a chair and she most certainly wasn't allowed to study or perform in the theatre!
Beautiful 💞
It's too bad her letter to Hattie McDaniel wasn't full of rage over segregation.
@@pastelskies8466 Yes. it is pretty clear that MM was willing to suport the idea of education for African Americans in a segregated settging but not as mixing with other races. She certainly does not seem to support the idea that those doctors would be treating white patients. In fact she doesn't even seem to consider that could happen. But we must look at the past as the past and realize that its standards are not ours.
She was a racist.
I only knew her as the Author of Gone With The Wind, I had no idea she accomplished so much more than that.
and her mom was pretty cool, too.
It was such a pleasure to watch this documentary. She was the prominent woman of her time. Thanks to everyone who made an input.
Books were my life from a small child living on a farm in GA with no tv or playmates. The weekly book mobile visit was the highlight of my life and when the bookmobile arrived my mother rang the bell and I was relieved of farm duties to pick out my books. I remember when the librarian sent me Gone With the Wind. I read every spare moment as did most of the rest of my family. My mother bought a set of World Book encyclopedias and I could get lost in those books when the library books were finished. Such good memories.
Lori, you sound delightful.
Lori Hamlin;
"Your childhood memory sounds absolutely wonderful!" I'm happy to know some childhoods did exist similar to a delightful storybook. It's too bad modern technology has taken the place of a genuine use of imagination through fascinations of reading. Many children today don't quite understand the usefulness of imagination and how it's applied in life; and finding reading a waste of their time. 😢
Shortly after my parents started dating ('61), my dad gave Mom Gone With The Wind because he found out she loved reading. They would have been married 60 yrs this month and that book has always been on their bookshelves. Mom says it's one of her favorite books (the movie doesn't hold a candle to it) and put a bookplate in the front gifting it to me. When that day comes (I'm in no hurry) it will have a special place on my shelves.
I'm so glad I saw this documentary! Margaret Mitchell was an amazing woman, so much more than I ever knew!
Agr
thank you so much for sharing ... I felt the same yet your words express them better ... what an amazing tribute & documentary to an amazing woman... let's share this w friends and family to help bring our world to a better place ... thank you utube for giving us a formate to learn from ...
I read it when young. I loved to sit in trees, read & nibble on apples, or curled up in front of the fire! ❤
@@cristineconnell7803 That was a favorite past time for me too. There's just something of an escape sitting in a tree to read. I think at my age, the neighbors would talk now.😄When I was 10 we moved from Colorado to Indiana. It rarely rained where we were in CO, it rained a lot in IN so I'd make popcorn, sit in the station wagon & read when it rained.
Thank you. Lovely & romantic story.
There's a saying in the writing world: "No writer ever works alone." Thank goodness for those people. And what an extraordinary woman M. Mitchell was. She still inspires me.
Thank you for the documentary about Margaret Mitchell. I often wondered what she was like and where the thoughts and inspiration for this novel came from. During my 70 years, Gone With the Wind, I am currently reading my copy of her novel for probably the 20th time. I never get tired or bored of reading the story and it’s as if I’m reading it for the first time each time. I think I can understand why she asked to have the original transcript burned. In part, it might have been her last rebellious act. RIP Margaret Mitchell
Vicki, I'm rereading it for the 2nd time after seeing the book on my shelf. It kept calling out to me. I'm glad I am and also listen to the complete soundtrack from the movie while reading. It's here on You Tube but I'm fortunate to have a double cd boxed set. I hope you'll one day get to go to Margaret Mitchell's home in Atlanta. It is now a museum.
@@paulheffron4836 thank you for the information about her home. I did not know that. However, I highly doubt I will be able to get there. I have the double vcr and double dvd of Gone With the Wind. I also have the double vcr and dvd of Scarlett. Of course they have different actors but the story isn’t too bad and it’s interesting. The book is not good at all and I wouldn’t waste my time reading it twice or even once. I’m pleased that you started reading it again. I’m a hopeless romantic so I never tire of reading it. It’s a 1972 copyright paperback and in terrible condition even though I did try to keep it in good condition. Enjoy your time in Georgia with Scarlett and Rhett. And of course, “Ashley, oh Ashley”. 😊
@@Vicki1951 w q
Why would burning the original script for this, be considered rebellious?
Debutante? She was a Rebutante. lol She broke the mold her entire life. Rest in Peace.
Okay I just finished watching this. I can say with confidence, that this is the best documentary about the author and book. She was a rare woman, just like Scarlett.
I'll bet there were many ballsy women in Scarlett O' Hara's time. They had to be.
@@pastelskies8466 I like to learn about her life but is the woman who's narrating as if she's MM faking that accent because I find it really, really distracting.
Very good documentary! Interesting how she wove the occurrences of her life into Gone With The Wind.
Q
That is what good writers do. That is why they tell you to write what you know.
That's exactlyhow she accomplished the fabric of a great book. Woven from life.
I 💗 documentaries and I can easily spend an entire weekend binge watching them. I must say that I found Margaret Mitchell's life to be quite fascinating and in many ways most inspiring.📖🖌️
I have the old book of gwtw with color pictures and the movies story and dialogs. I loved the movie too. It showed the whole world how people loved each other. Black white Indians too were with Confederate armies
hear hear that k you for sharing b your thoughts I agree this documentary should be shared with friends and family... A real inspiration I remember taking our daughter to one of her many mantions... life was hard back then physically and emotionally... The world is a differant kinda chalange. ay the history lesson teach all of us ... Yes thank ypu for utube allowing us to save history in this way free of charge... just silence the commercials and know they help pay so we can enjoy ..°••~ °•~♡▪︎
Excellent. What an extraordinary woman Margaret Mitchell was; I never realized the amazing life she lived.
Excellent documentary. Thank you to the people who made this possible. What a very interesting life. I would’ve never guessed that she had that much gumption!
Your comment made me smile. I'd bet she was just as surprised at her gumption as you are. 🌝
@@e.l.france5136
Now that I have turned 70 years young and my hair is long and white I am reflecting back on all the decades of my youth. I can’t believe the wonderful things that I did and wonderful things that I accomplished. The courage and gumption that I had makes me wonder 💭 “ Who was that girl? Who was that woman?” I gave myself a very memorable life and many people have always told me throughout the decades that I should write a book but I keep secrets and do not reveal what is told to me.
Our family immigrated from Korea to Atlanta in 1986. My mother is a huge fan of Margaret Mitchell and that may have inspired her to major in English Literature.
sooo interesting and heartwarming to know how she helped further education for american black med students!!
This is a great documentary about a great woman. I love both the book and the movie
So glad you enjoyed it!
I knew how she died but never knew how she lived. Thank you 😊 💓
Such a great story! I was a care taker for Theodoshia Landis and her husband from 2013 until 2019. She was 99 when she passed in December 2019. Her father was Thomas Ripley Author of “ They died with their boots on “ he worked with Margret Mitchel at the Atlanta constitution. Both books published the same yo. He told her “ Margret Mitchell” good luck with your book . “ Gone with the wind. Never realizing it would be be a best seller!!!
From the age of 12 Gone With The Wind has been my favourite book that I returned to again. My mother loved it too.
Such a wonderful documentary. Margaret Mitchell was a spit fire. I'm sorry I did not care to know more about her. She reminded me of myself as a child, likes, dislikes, going against the grain. What a stunning masterpiece did she pen in Gone With the Wind. Had no idea she died so young. Beautiful lady. Thank you for sharing, G P B.
What a wonderful documentary. I am 72 years old & have not seen this. I am so thrilled & grateful you posted it. Thank You very much for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
This has been the most beautifully told bio of Margaret Mitchell ever told. Thank you!!!!!
It wasn’t until the last photo of Margaret Mitchell that I realized she was Scarlett.
Harry Smith's voice is golden.
He's great. "Margaret Mitchell" is cringeworthy
@@nellerue446 Why is Margaret Mitchell "cringeworth"?
@@MGTOWPaladin I don't enjoy the actor who voices Margaret Mitchell.
@@nellerue446 Thanks for the clarification.
Scarlett was one of a kind, a survivor extraordinaire. GWTW is a work of art, the book and the movie. We should never erase it, we should embrace it and learn to heal.
What a gal. What a novel. What a movie. What a life. I throughly enjoyed this abbreviated documentary, and now I'll have to delve a little deeper into Margaret Mitchell's story.
Gal? Seriously? Women hate this pejorative.
Margaret Mitchell &John Marsh the love story behind gone with the wind. Love this book.
Absolutely fascinating life she lead. Huge fan of the movie. Now I want to read the book. Her words. So proud of all she did after her success for the community.
Maybelle was a Victorian woman! She was loving in her way by teaching her children what they owed society. Honestly, we could use a little more of that these days
Amen
She took the secret of her alleged “loving way” all the way to her grave. She certainly never conveyed that sentiment to Martha (what a nasty withholding, consciously perpetrated on Margaret by that old harpy) and it’s presumptive to assume she actually LOVED her daughter.
Many mothers don’t love their children and it’s about time that reality is acknowledged.
@@tundrawomansays5067 it’s about mothers not mothered who fall into a void of not knowing how to😞
My mom is exactly like Maybelle; she never hugged or kissed us or told us she loved us while we were growing up. We five siblings fiercely love her. She mellowed for her grandchildren and is one of the best grandmothers ever, and she has a greatgrandchild. Honestly, you should hug your kids. Touch is so important. Only thing I wish she had done differently raising us. Otherwise, she was and still is fierce, brave, smart and classy.
This was a very well made and very enjoyable documentary. Thanks GPB!
This documentary should be a lesson taught in every school of America...
Thank you for this documentary about Margaret Mitchell. To learn about these amazing leading historian people. I find her story quit inspiring. what a GREAT lady all what she gone though and never gave up. Gone to soon.
When I discovered this I couldn’t wait to watch. What a treat to discover the complexity of this extraordinary woman. I had only known what limited info was out there. Wonderful.
She was such a beautiful woman. I’m happy she blossomed into a beautiful person as well.
Wow. How much pain the people of color had to endure. Ironic that that is the novel's main theme. Hattie Mcdaniel was AMAZING in the film. I would have loved to meet her.
This was a great documentary! I didn't know much about her but had always been curious.
An amazingly well done documentary about an amazing and fascinating woman!
EXCELLENT DOCUMENTARY ! READING HER BOOK FOR THE THIRD TIME WITH GREAT PASSION ! THANK YOU ! GPB ! FOR SHOWING THIS ! WITH MY RESPECT AND LOVE TO MARGARET ! REST IN PEACE !
much sympathy for the accident prone, secretly depressed , she managed like a champion.
Brilliant. Really shows the complexities of life. We do such a disservice to history & individuals when we paint w/ a broad brush using modern day as how others should be, rather than the nuances and layers of the life & world those people lived in.
We should take care to reject just oversimplification for we will be future generations ‘history’, & examined by them.
People seem to forget that and, for some weird reason, that society will always run by the values and beliefs we have now. In truth, many things we hold to today will be looked back on as odd or stupid by generations to come.
What a incredible woman
@@January. The masses are hopeless!
What an incredible life! She was definitely an independent thinking woman! Yet, she did seem to be a risk taker & humble woman at the same time. Thank you for this video!!
I have always been strongly taken with these special, non-conforming, one-of-a-kind, and super talented true individuals who show up in this world periodically. Margaret Mitchell was clearly one of them and I can relate to her intense frustration, at times, at her often failed attempts to find places, niches, and roles in society that could hold, appreciate, and provide genuine opportunities for the blossoming, development, and full expansion of her enormous energy, vitality, and gifts. These people are almost always looked upon with criticism, judgment, and misunderstanding by those who can't begin to comprehend and relate to the experience that a person of such transcendent mind and spirit has.
I thoroughly enjoyed this documentary and felt that the creators did a pretty good job of conveying that life-long tension between her own inner life and the expectations and constraints of the culture and society in which Margaret found herself born into. But, I was so deeply shocked and moved when this video came to the photograph of Margaret lying in the street after been hit by the car that I began to cry with sadness that this had to happen to such an amazing and vibrant person who was still so young.
I read this book at the age of 15 during a long hospital stay for orthopedic surgery due to cerebral palsy--because history has always fascinated me, and this was one of the first works of fiction to bring it such vivid life. One thing Mitchell realized is that history is not simply part of the past but is being shaped in the present; that is why her involvement in white supremacy changed: As the black population was able to share their story, she realized her own attitudes had been wrong. She not only changed them, but defied the social norms of her time and gave huge amounts of money to black causes, to help the black population fight against white oppression of the time. Had she lived another twenty years, I think she would have been very vocal about the civil rights movement, and would have agreed with the finally evolving insight that black lives do indeed matter; what a brilliant and kind lady she was; and how very proud her mother would have been of her.
Some always thought they did matter! That's what the Civil War was about! We all are created equal under GOD!
I too am most grateful Margaret Mitchell realized that *ALL* people matter & helped Morehouse medical students specifically. Personally I am extremely grateful because the most knowledgeable, the most kind doctor I *ever* had just happened to be black. His patients were of all ethnicities (a college town) & each of us in the waiting room knew he was giving whomever was with him his *UTMOST* attention. He totally *LISTENED* to each of us.
Margaret Mitchell just may have been a major influence in his medical studies for all I know. I am forever grateful.
She was so young when she spoke out with her bigotry. She learned in her later life. She became a support of civil rights and that , early in the century, showed her ability to think.
I cried ....thank you....
That was wonderful.
Margaret Mitchell is someone I would have loved to sit down and talk with.
You and me both!
Absolutely fantastic!
I read Gone With The Wind and It was a wonderful book this is a very interesting documentary about this incredible lady
Just wonderful to know the woman behind the book. I've read it twice. To me it's Rhett's story as he copes with the most frustrating, strong spirit of Scarlett.
Contrarry to Popular Beliefs the LOVE and Admiration between Blacks and Whites is very much Alive Spiritually. The 5 Colours of the Human Race are so connected
None could EXIST without the Others.
'"RESPECTABILITY is the PUNISHMENT of the WILD". Who could ever have imagined?
It certainly is....and so boring , too.
She definitely, was a great leader. She extended herself to a cause, which was not popular in her time. She made great contributions to the negro college, which resulted towards better care for the negroes in the south. She build a magnificent hospital for that reason. She never gave up; even though she was battling with depression; due to her ongoing illnesses. Her husband was a great asset to her, for the simple fact he was a journalist and also a great man; who helped the greatest writer of all time. Margaret Mitchell "Peggy"🌹
I hope you don't use "Negro" regularly. Black or African-American is preferred.
@@ancestorsunite3063 I hope one day we will stop hassling each other over names. How on earth will we overcome our differences that are much, much more serious (like modern day slavery) if we cannot even agree to disagree about what to call someone (by their skin color or lack thereof). hitler and Stalin hated the book. Because it gave people hope for successful rebellion against oppression. Two of the most heinous mass murders ever. If we don't start to see the bigger picture instead of trying to control what another person said, we are doomed.
Well done
Thank you for putting this doco together. Margaret lives on through many generations.
Margaret Mitchell and Vivien Leigh shared the same intense fiery blue eyes; both were Scorpios too.
No wonder...that explains everything!
When I read Han Suyin's 5 volume autobiography, it made me recall Margaret Mitchell's eternal message of enduring hope through instincts of survival and perseverance. Han Suyin's 5 volume titles; The Crippled Tree, A Mortal Flower, Birdless Summer, My House has Two Doors and Phoenix Harvest resonated so closely with the themes of Gone With the Wind.
Han Suyin! I loved her writing! Thank you for mentioning her!
Great additions; thx for sharing the recommendations!
Oh thank you. I’ll have to look into those titles!
Viva la Margaret !!!
The cinematography in this is the best on RUclips.
Fascinating.
Can you imagine how much that manuscript would be worth if he hadn't burned it?!!!
Love these documentaries.I listen to them at bed time.I often dose off but I go back and listen again tysm
Thank you!
Woman was before her time,strong girl,brave and amazing....wow for that time amazing woman..so injoy these true storys no one see or hears about...these are the many sorry no ons even knows about..ive subscribe!! Thank you
W a a novel, indeed. And what a movie! Its history, that should not be destroyed! But remembered and treasured!
My grandmother had a signed copy of the book which I now have. She got it at a book signing when she purchased it back in the 30's (always said it cost a lot). When Mitchell died, her obituary was in the paper and my grandmother cut it out and put it in the book. There was a time in this country (late 60's and early 70's) when the book was on high school reading lists for American literature along with Drums along the Mohawk. Both books are now really hard to find.
I would have it authenticated. Mitchell did not have book signings, she did not give even Vivien Leigh an autographed copy. She inscribed very few copies, and then only for very close friends. I remember going to the movie theater on a bus from school to watch this movie, it was about 1974.
Thank you for including a brief commentary from my favorite author: Pat Conroy😊
Love Pat Conroy, own all his books love,love.
@@bjanik8412 me too! Your favorite?? Mine is Lord’s of Discipline.
Favorite... Prince of Tides and Lord's of Discipline .
@@bjanik8412 Prince of Tides is my very close second favorite as well.
He wrote an introduction to a later printing of GWTW, it’s wonderful. He talks about how his mother loved that book.
What an amazing woman!
"Her back NEVER touched the back of a chair". kinda like my mother - I had a "difficult" childhood - now I LOOK BACK FONDLY
Thanks for posting this! Just saved me 10 bucks on eBay
I first read GWTW when I was 16. It’s influence was so great in that I wanted to be like Scarlett: strong, resilient and beautiful because that’s what she was. In my mind, Rhett went back to his people to clear his mind but in doing so, he realized that he truly still loved Scarlet, who in turn had rehabilitated her character and standing in the community. She was young enough that they had more children, never forgetting Eugenia Victoria of the Bonnie Blue eyes.
Naw, Scarlett could never change, even though she loved Rhett as much as she loved Tara; she never could defeat her stubborn character in the presence of love. Rhett was too honest about himself, her character; he knew her too well. Ashley did too. She was going to grow older, lose her children to marriage and hopefully, happier homes than she had ever made for them.
But I'm sure she stalked Rhett for the rest of her time on earth and I'm certain he and his mother suffered for all the gossip created and spread between Jonesboro, Atlanta, Charleston and all the way up the Carolina coast.
@@meeeka Have you read "Scarlet" by Alexandra Ripley?
Really enjoy this documentary.
Greetings from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
Wow , I had no idea , what a great life lived . I`v always loved the movie . Now I have to read the book .
Wow to write one book to be the top selling book of the century and then a great movie based on it as the greatest some say in hollywood history yes I say Margaret Mitchell had the gumption the core knowing people the human condition and how they dealt with life joys and sorrows
This is the best GWTW bio I’ve ever seen.
WOW! What an amazing lady! I never knew anything about her. She had pain, adversity, unsureness, struggled to find her identity at a time women just got married and had children. She made some bad choices she learn from and went on to write the greatest novel ever!
Really enjoyed this. Thanks
Fantastic. What a woman.
The actor on Charlotte's right in the scene where Scarlett goes into the house because she doesn't want to hear about War is George Reeves who played Superman in the long running TV series.
I bought "Gone with the Wind" in 2010 from a street market in Delhi for just hundred Indian rupees. I read it umpteen times and believe me, still kept as a souvenir.
😍 Thank you so much for this brilliant documentary ❤️🙏💕 of an amazing American woman.
Glad you enjoyed it!
A TRUE REMARKABLE WOMAN, A REAL IDOL, A GREAT INSPIRATION TO WOMEN INTERNATIONALLY. I HAVE A STAMP OF HER IMAGE. I RESPECT THIS WOMAN, MY INTELLECTUAL LIGHT.
Gone with The Wind has always been my favorite novel as is the movie. I lived in Atlanta for a few years and had the privilege of seeing her grave. This documentary really showed me who she was a a person. Thank you.
Peggy Mitchell was the BEST!
She had gumption all right. She had deppression too, only too human. Love her story. What a complex c haracter, that original manuscript would be worth millions today, enough to pay hundreds of students college education.
@@January. Do I get a C--, professor?
My cousin got me Gone With the Wind for Christmas in 1970 when I was 11 almost 12.
I can remember the first chapter being so verbose but I eventually got through it.
When I had to lived in Atlanta for a short spell I went thru small apartment. It had a kitchen, bathroom, space for a bed, and a sitting room. I was a patient of Shepard Center after surviving a F4 tornado in Tennessee but had a T12 spinal cord.
I read GONE WITH THE WIND and loved it.
Love Documentaries.margaret mitchell.
When the editors were going through the book piece by piece one of the things they were not satisfied with was the name given the main character. Margaret Mitchell had given her the name Pansy and the editors didn't feel it fit at all. One of them came up with the name Scarlett.
Fiddle da dee
Whew! Glad they came up with Scarlett. Pansy wouldn't have been good at all.
@@debrarobey3749 Fiddle DEE dee
Not true. Sorry! But that simply isn't true. MM came up with Scarlett. Pansy and then Scarlett. Obviously one is better than the other.
What a story! I’m so glad I watched this! It’s 105 degrees today and nothing to do as several days have been 100+degrees. I’d go though the heat again gladly for a happenstance like this. Worth it all. Just beautiful.
Have read this story as,a young girl and have watched the movie many times . And watched it with my children and they love it as much as I.
Ms. Mitchel has given us5 a true gift. 😊
This was truly excellent! I knew virtually nothing about Mitchell, and this wonderfully made documentary surpassed all expectations. Thanks so much for uploading it here!
Thankyou so much for sharing this
Our pleasure 😊
I loved this book, and I read it the first time at 16. I’m glad I watched this documentary on Margaret Mitchell, I learned so much. She was a great person.
