Come Home to Tara

In 1939, David O. Selznick’s epic Oscar-winning masterpiece swept away audiences and defined what a Hollywood blockbuster should be: fearless film-making with a grand scope, intimate drama and enduring romance – all in stunning Technicolor. Seventy-five years later, Gone with the Wind remains as breathtaking as ever. Come home to Scarlett O’Hara, Rhett Butler and more of the most beloved and iconic characters of all time.

Trivia

Gone with the Wind was the first color film to win an Oscar for Best Picture.

Hattie McDaniel was the first African-American actor to be nominated for and to win an Academy Award.

Gary Cooper, who turned down the role of Rhett Butler, is quoted as saying, 'Gone with the Wind is going to be the biggest flop in Hollywood history'.

Because the movie premiere was held in racially segregated Atlanta, Hattie McDaniel was not allowed to attend.

Nearly four hours in length, Gone with the Wind is the longest running movie ever to win a Best Picture Oscar.
