- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 December 2024Its my favourite film but as yet not viewed it in BluRay as it was a Christmas present
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 September 2023Watching GWTW, for the first time, I felt I was watching pretty much all of Jane Austen (there's even a character called Darcy in it), Vanity Fair, and Wuthering Heights, all rolled into one epic, operatic melodrama. Bizarrely, it also reminded me, obliquely, of the Fifty Shades stories. Why, you ask: because of the super rich man whose wealth just seems to be there, conveniently ready to be exploited by the enterprising female protagonist. Otherwise GWTW runs in reverse, the marriage comes first and the rough sex part comes afterwards.
Don't worry, fragile reader. There's no nookie in GWTW, just plenty of war and destruction and death. Much easier on the eye, right?
GWTW has all of life's rich pageant in it, and it made me laugh several times, and just occasionally at the film as well as with it. The lead character of Becky Sharp (sorry, I mean Scarlett O'Hara) is one of literature's and cinema's great, great egoists. The American Civil War is to her an inconvenient nuisance, like an uninvited and underdressed gatecrasher. In the first half hour or so I was groaning: brother, I don't know if I can abide this capering coquette. Then Clark Gable's Rhett Butler appears, opens his mouth to speak, and the film ignites. From then on the next three hours and more are cake.
And thankfully the film has an intermission, an obvious halfway point, so you can stop, stretch your legs, take the dog for a walk, and come back to Tara later on.
Really, this film has the whole human comedy in it. I was fascinated by the way the characters, of which there are many, contrasted with each other, complemented one another, and represented different virtues and attitudes to life. There is so much delicious snobbery, so much prejudice and discrimination (not the kind you're thinking of), so much nobility and generosity, connivance and petty cruelty, and so much poignancy and loneliness. GWTW is full of people playing roles, just like its actors, trapped in the past as times change; and is it better to pull yourself up by the boot straps or sink solemnly and with dignity down into the oblivion, true to the old ways?
And I sure did laugh at how so many characters die, right on time, just when the plot needed them to, just as they became an obstacle to something else happening. As I said above, you can laugh at as well as with GWTW.
This is a sumptuous 1930s colour movie, one that swept the board at the Academy Awards, and it manages the grand sweep and the chamber scenes with near equal verve. Just bear in mind, it is a movie from the 1930s and a movie about the civil war of the 1860s, not at all a movie of the 21st century. So, don't expect, well you know, pin sharp digital images and CGI and all that.
Makes me want to read a short history of the civil war, and maybe a biography of Larry and Vivian.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 July 2024I have seen the film on numerous occasions. It is a good film, but you can see how far films have progressed technically wise and how far we have come. Still a good film.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 July 2024I like the technicolour and great acting probably my favourite movie
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 December 2023Good film but sound variable, needs cleaning up
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 June 2023What more can I say about what is one of the all time great movies? They don't make them like this anymore. A wonderful cast, great locations, enhanced by a great music score composed by Max Steiner. This version is the so-called Roadshow version, Overture, first part of the movie, Intermission, then second part of the movie with Exit Music being added onto the end to give it that "Cinematic" feel.
Picture quality and sound on this Blu-Ray disc is very good indeed. I do not know whether there is a version available on the new 4K format, but I cannot imagine picture quality being that much better. There are also a couple of good extras, one exploring the history of the "Old South" which is worth seeing.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 May 2024An enrapturing film of titanic significance, although it spans almost four hours I believe that all should watch, even if just for the charming accents and stunning fashions.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 June 2015I have tried so many times to watch this film until the very end! I’ve lost interest, fallen asleep, or just plain given up! Anyway, this time I finally managed it, I bought the Bluray version to help me concentrate for the journey!
Firstly, the Bluray is just fantastic quality and crystal clear – 10/10.
It’s a bit of a waste of time going over the plot isn’t it - after all these years! Just to say that Clark and Vivian were fantastic as the leads, and who couldn’t help but love that maid! Old Rhett, all tan, teeth & tash – but what a good looking guy – and rich as well girls! Well, Scarlett, you got what you deserved didn’t you! No sympathy from this end I’m afraid.
What a memorable scene that was when Rhett was leading the buggy through the fire and munitions, and that huge torched warehouse collapsed around them -utterly amazing cinematography for its day. That will always stay with me.
Can you believe that Gable did not win an AA for his performance, but Leigh did – even the maid did! So, he lost the war, his wife and his trophy. No wonder he turned a drink?
The only other thing I can say is just how much I enjoyed this film having finally stayed the course. Perhaps I found it easier now that I’m older – I think that helps? The film has now grossed some 3.5 billion, making it he most successful film ever.

2.0 out of 5 stars Master 2k imperfetto e tante lingue ...e i contenuti speciali?
Un vero peccato che la quantità immensa di contenuti speciali,documentari e filmati d'archivio delle precedenti edizioni speciali in DVD non siano stati inseriti. Eppure lo spazio di un blu Ray permetterebbe centinaia di ore di contenuti. Peccato. Il master technicolor e restauro è infedele,alcune scene come quella del ballo hanno su un filtro/patina gialla

5.0 out of 5 stars Toujours aussi fantastique
Peu importe son âge, cette fresque reste inimitable. Presque 4 heures retraçant la vie et le déclin d'une civilisation qui n'existe plus. Acteurs magistraux. Effets spéciaux surprenants pour l'époque. Un pan d'histoire qui reste vivant grâce à ce film.
- Jim HagermanReviewed in Germany on 28 July 2020
5.0 out of 5 stars Great Movie, but Stupid German Post
I have seen this movie many times. I wanted a copy since I know it will not be available much longer. In Germany I had to show my Passport to receive the package from DHL! I am 62 years old and this is a PG movie! Unbelievably ignorant and stupid!
