MOVIE EPIC! Winner of 8 Academy Awards including Best Picture, Director, Screenplay, Actress and Supporting Actress, Clark Gable, Vivien Leigh and Hattie McDaniel star in the epic (and controversial) adaptation of Margaret Mitchell's bestselling novel. A sheltered and manipulative Southern belle and a roguish profiteer face off in a turbulent romance as the society around them crumbles with the end of slavery and is rebuilt during the Civil War and Reconstruction periods.
Although the film has been criticised for glorifying slavery, it has been credited with triggering changes in the way in which African Americans were depicted cinematically - particularly by Hattie McDaniel, who won an Oscar for her performance.
