Gone with the wind came out in 1939
The book did, yes - written by Margaret Mitchell. I love the book and the movie. Do you know who played the male lead in the movie?
Clark Gable was the male lead
Yes he was, he played his part very well, as did all the characters in the movie. They had to create some elaborate movie sets for this movie.
The story takes place during the civil war
Yes it does, a very turbulent period in the United States history. So many interesting stories came out of that time period. This was one about a one prominent southern family.
Many actresses tried out for the role of Scarlett
Only to be won by Vivien Leigh. She did a great job in this role. I don't know why she pined so much for Ashley.
Casting cause the film to be delayed a few years before it began filming
Yes, I heard that. They had to make sure they had the perfect cast before shooting. I thought Olivia de Haviland was also great in this movie.
