MUCH DISCUSSED FILM
“GONE WITH THE WIND.’’ Three years in the making, in technicolour, “Gone With the Wind” is finished at last, and had its world premiere at Atalanta on December 15. Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh find a strange and violent pathway of love in this story of the American Civil War, which takes 3J hours to screen, and during production was called “Selznick’s Insanity.” Gable was the “people’s choice” for the part of Rhett Butler, Vivien Leigh was signed for the part of Scarlett O'Hara —the longest ever acted in a motion picture—after a two-year search. With them are Olivia de Havilland as Melanie, and Leslie Howard as Ashley Wilkes.
