A Must Have Book for Gone With the Wind Fans

This book is packed with information and great photographs, both in color and black and white. The majority of the book deals with the filming an abundance of behind-the-scenes shots. Also of particular interest is the post-production section dealing with the public's reaction to the movie and the section on the Premiere. This is a great book to add to your personal library.

Terrific!

This is an excellent book that chronicles the making of the legendary screen classic "Gone With the Wind". The book moves in chronological order from it's start as a novel all the way through the pre-production, production and post-production stages of what was to be one of the greatest films of all time, if not the greatest. The book is filled with numerous photos, some of them in color, many of them rare and all of them crisp and clear. There are close-ups of all of its stars (Vivien Leigh, Clark Gable, Olivia DeHavilland, Leslie Howard), the crew at work, movie posters and it's world premiere. This is a great book that will make an excellent addition to any library!

A wonderfully beautiful book about the best movie ever made!

GWTW is the best movie in the world! And this book captures some of its majestic splendour, but you can't do that much on paper, but this book is wonderful! It had some pictures (stills) that you couldn't really catch the people's expressions in the movie, but this book really did. Melanie (Olivia DeHavilland) the star, really, looked so beautifully sweet in every picture, her love for Ashley made her glow. This book is the best one I have seen of a GWTW picture book. Obviously, a lot of research went into making this book.

Wonderfully written, a definate must read!

This novel, written by a wonderful author, deserves much more than five stars. It is wonderful in all ways. It's descriptions paint many vivid images in your mind, along with making you believe that you were really there, observing the life of Scarlett O'Hera, and all that lived around her, approving and disapproving of her. After reading this, I was instantly hooked on the story. The plot keeps you reading, and never is there a boring part to be read. It is a wonderful book, and even though I am twelve, and got laughed at for reading it, I would never once change my mind about making the decision to read it. It is a book that should be required in schools, for the content is absolutly extravagant.

10 Stars for the best GWTW picture book ever!

This book contains a picture by picture account of the movie, it contains some of the best copies of the movie posters ever and it has a reasonable amount of background information, but the pictures really make this book something special...
