gone With the Wind

There is a strong literary atmosphere, and the pictures and atmosphere are beautiful.

The background of the story is actually worth pondering. The American Civil War, the tragic degree of this civil war exceeded the sum of World War I and World War II. What is the reason? This war has no right or evil side, it is completely two beliefs and two interests. collision.

The setting of the characters has enough sense of the times, from a modern point of view, it can be said to be hypocritical.

Scarlett, a princess sick with a green tea hat and an unexpected love?
However, probably the daughters of the upper classes in that era were all patients with princess disease, so Scarlett, as one of the best, has grown up from the changes of the times. Isn't this the actual praise of the film?

As for Ashley, the vested interests of the old era cannot make a comeback in the new era, even if they pass by.

On the contrary, Reiter, starting from the interests, just adapts to the rhythm of the new era, and the yuppie style is also intoxicating.

And Melanie, who represents the old times, is full of the elegance, gentleness and love of the upper class, but she is also destined to die in the war.

Just like that era, it is gone with the wind.
