Gone with the Wind (5/6) Movie CLIP - Abasing Herself (1939) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Rhett (Clark Gable) reveals that he can see through Scarlett's (Vivien Leigh) act and that she and her family are in dire straits.

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."

[Moldbreaker]

I love the way she says " I'll come to your hanging" and the look of amusement on Rhett's face.

[coolsdon]

I think it's often over looked just how good Vivien Leigh really was in this role.She acts beautifully...never over acts, just the right amount of emotion.I think if the role had been in the hands of any other actress, it would have been a disaster!
And so achingly beautiful..!

[ashlynwolff]

1:48 - 1:57 I just love how Scarlet's face went from pleading to bright fury
2:03 she bit him 😂😂😂

[BlankCanvas]

She had the most beautiful profile I’ve ever seen! And Clark Gable is in my mind the most handsome man of the Hollywood Golden Age.

[EXthesweetlamb]

"I'll come to your HANGING!" the way she sais it, cracks me up everytime

[NORASHEN]

The energy between those two is incredible .. she is in love with him and she doesnt even know it .. and he knows he will win her heart .. he knows she is his all from the start ..

[isam]

The description is ridiculous. The movie is NOT about a southern girl in love with a married man. The movie is a coming-of-age story of a girl who is raised in a world who is absolutely destroyed, realizes all her abilities and most of her education are useless, and is forced to change and harden to survive and to protect their family on the go. The members of their family (including the house slaves) are very much unable to change, and some live in a depression limbo of remembrance of the past, so she has to carry the burden of all of them on her shoulders. She gets extremely burned out because of that. Summarizing the complexity of all of it into a love story is just ridiculous.

[Flufferz]

They are simultaneously meant for each other, and each other's downfall.

[SR-vlql]

“You’re not worth $300. You’ll never mean anything but misery to a man”.

[jubileetran]

It’s so sweet that he notices how her hands have been worn out and that she’s going through some hardships.

[khfanlife]

Vivien’s dresses are absolutely stunning, just like her performance in this movie.

[TB-izcc]

“Take your hands off me, you skunk!” 😂😂😂😂

[keiraausten]

“Cheer up, you can come to my hanging and I’ll remember you in my will.” 😂🤣 that’s kind of funny how sarcastic he’s being

[SuperSy]

The camera used in this movie is far superior than netflix movies

[gee]

I was about 10 when I first watched this movie (that quickly became one of my favorite classics) and remember how magnetic she was on screen. She’s stunningly beautiful. Both of them have incredible chemistry too.

[carmelosview]

“Go on and insult me idc what you say only
give me the money” QUEEN!!

[iOnlySignIn]

Hahahaha they're both so badass and clever and sexy. It's so fun to see them go against each other. :)

[mariobarbu]

Vivien was such a beautiful woman. I can't stop looking at her... The most beautiful actress, and talented too.

[chloerodgers]

I think people sometimes forget how this movie pushed alot of envelopes for its time....Melanie's pregnancy/giving birth, the jailhouse scene where Rhett reminded her he wasn't the "marrying kind" and she knew what price she'd have to pay for taxes on Tara, the "I don't give a damn", etc.

[rabiaayubi]

most beautiful woman in Hollywood of all time.
