Frankly My Dear, I Don't Give a Damn - Gone with the Wind (6/6) Movie CLIP (1939) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Rhett (Clark Gable) leaves Scarlett (Vivien Leigh) in tears, but she still finds hope in tomorrow.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
Gone With the Wind boils down to a story about a spoiled Southern girl's hopeless love for a married man. Producer David O. Selznick managed to expand this concept, and Margaret Mitchell's best-selling novel, into nearly four hours' worth of screen time, on a then-astronomical 3.7-million-dollar budget, creating what would become one of the most beloved movies of all time. Gone With the Wind opens in April of 1861, at the palatial Southern estate of Tara, where Scarlett O'Hara (Vivien Leigh) hears that her casual beau Ashley Wilkes (Leslie Howard) plans to marry "mealy mouthed" Melanie Hamilton (Olivia de Havilland). Despite warnings from her father (Thomas Mitchell) and her faithful servant Mammy (Hattie McDaniel), Scarlett intends to throw herself at Ashley at an upcoming barbecue at Twelve Oaks. Alone with Ashley, she goes into a fit of histrionics, all of which is witnessed by roguish Rhett Butler (Clark Gable), the black sheep of a wealthy Charleston family, who is instantly fascinated by the feisty, thoroughly self-centered Scarlett: "We're bad lots, both of us." The movie's famous action continues from the burning of Atlanta (actually the destruction of a huge wall left over from King Kong) through the now-classic closing line, "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn." Holding its own against stiff competition (many consider 1939 to be the greatest year of the classical Hollywood studios), Gone With the Wind won ten Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actress (Vivien Leigh), and Best Supporting Actress (Hattie McDaniel, the first African-American to win an Oscar). The film grossed nearly 192 million dollars, assuring that, just as he predicted, Selznick's epitaph would be "The Man Who Made Gone With the Wind."

And just like that he was gone. Gone with the wind

"I'll think about it tomorrow" Procrastinator l e g e n d

[rhetthammond]

My name is Rhett and if I had a dollar for every time an old lady mentioned Gone With the Wind when I introduced myself, I would be so rich I wouldn’t have to give a damn either.

[ollieoreoo]

This was extremely satisfying to watch. Scarlett had riches and a loving husband and a beautiful child and she wasn't grateful for any of it. She chased after everything she didn't have and never stopped to appreciate what she did have. She only thought of herself. Rhett had had enough.

[DaGavinX]

One of the best literary mic drops of all time.

[christianvelez]

Legend has it that, to this day, Rhett still doesn't give a damn.

[thebeatnumber]

She used Rhett through out. And Rhett, love him or hate him, was a proud man. He _knew_ he was being used by Scarlett, but he let it happen because he was genuinely in love with her and he was hoping she would come around to loving him someday.
Scarlett's inability to overcome her childhood crush over Ashley and her selfish desire to have him only because it would one- up Melanie, blinded her from seeing that Rhett really _was_ the man for her.
In the end Rhett was left with no other choice than to not give a damn because with Melanie's death, the decision was made for him.

[LPMAN]

RIP Clark Gable (February 1, 1901 – November 16, 1960), aged 59
And
RIP Vivien Leigh (November 5, 1913 – July 23, 1967), aged 53
You both will be remembered as legends.

[freddyrichards]

Absolutely love how that is the only curse word in this whole 4 hour movie

[chrissnuggs]

The don't call it "The Golden Age of Hollywood" for nothing.

[thecowboy]

What a great example of what to do when a woman treats you wrong, not just a woman, but anyone. You pack your bags, hit the road and never look back.

Only give your greatest gift, the gift of your time, to those who show by their actions they truly appreciate it.

[poslednisoud]

And not a single damn was given that day.

[Hilder]

Everyone: Gone with the wind is problematic

Everyone else: Frankly my dear I don't give a damn

[WC-jdrn]

I hate that young people today only know of this line and haven't actually seen the entire movie and all the dirt that Scarlett does to not only Rhett but everyone else in the film.

The line. The delivery. The walk away. It's utter perfection after watching this woman toy with his life for years.

[tygersflowerz]

I love this movie. Aside from the great filmmaking for its time, I love it because its lesson. At any given point in the story, Scarlett only wants what she doesn't have. At one point, she had a husband who adored her, a baby, a beautiful home, beautiful clothes, money...and all she wanted was an 18 inch waistline and an old crush who loved someone else. Only when her husband finally left, she suddenly wanted him. The sunset on the horizon and the beautiful music at the end isn't the promise of a new day or representing strength over adversity - it is a metaphor for how Scarlett lives. For her, all the good things are always "out there" somewhere, on the horizon. If you'll notice, she stopped crying and got a dreamy look in her eyes when she had something to long for again. It's the thrill of the chase she wants, because there is no real responsibility.

[RumbleDelta]

"Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn."
**puts on sunglasses**

[dylans.]

Apparently, the studio really had to fight to get the word "damn" in the movie, and what made the censors cave was the fact that it was in the book

[mikebasil]

Vivien Leigh is timelessly lovely when she says “After all, tomorrow is another day.” 💓

[HonorGuard]

I don't know why but isn't this empowerment for men too who feel like they've been used far too long. It's pretty badass in that way

[DarthJediMan]

Honestly, Scarlet had it coming. She treated him like shit and when he finally has enough and decides to leave, then she needs him so badly? Hell no! He made the right decision in my opinion.
