Oh! How do you know the parody if you haven't seen the original??
The original was way funnier than the parody!

weeeeelllllll....
I watched a lot of the carol Burnett reruns growing up and the parody always made me :ROFL:
 
Who here has watched Gone with the Wind??

My absolute favourite movie (3 hours, 53 minute and 13 seconds) of all time, next to The Sound of Music

Windies only please...!

I know you said Windies only, so forgive me for replying to this thread as someone who is not a Windy. I have seen the movie twice. Once when I was young at my own choosing and I wasn't keen on it. I watched it again as an adult with someone who wanted to watch it, again I wasn't keen on it. It's just not my genre. I prefer action/butt kicking and gun play.

Anyway, the reason I'm replying is because I've visited Margaret Mitchell's grave in Atlanta. I've also visited the Road to Tara museum in Jonesboro, GA. I'll include a pic of me next to a dress at the Road to Tara museum. I have a pic of me and Margaret's grave somewhere, but one pic of me is enough.

GASP!

That's Belle Watling's dress!
She was the hussy with dyed red hair who was in love with Rhett! But he was in love with Scarlett!

Aw I felt sorry for Belle.
 
There were definitely guns, kicking AND slapping in GWTW.

Scarlett killed a man! She wasn't a bad shot - she said she could shoot straight...if she didn't have to shoot too far. Point Blank Range!
Rhett gave her his gun.

Oh and she slapped about 4 different people in the movie.

Rhett kicked a door down.

Oh and there was this war on....lots of action, but the gun play was serious, people actually DIED in this war.

I've always wanted to go on the road to Tara, but we didn't get very far on our. CC roadtrip. Everyone was too busy partying on the bus.
 
Let's discuss the costumes...

Scarlett had a lot of wardrobe changes in this movie...
They do not make them like this anymore. The women wore...stays/corsets, pantalets, hoop skirts, bustles, snoods, shirtwaists, flared skirts and sleeves, mourning dresses, brooches, earbobs, shawls, red silk petticoats, chemises, puffed sleeves, bonnets with feathers, muffs, gloves, scarves, wraps, hankerchiefs, booties, nightgowns, aprons, ball gowns, ribbons, ruffles, pintucks, smocking, lace trim, rick rack, sequins, dresses made out of velvet curtains with tassels...it is a visual feast.

Props go to Walter Plunkett for costume design
 
Vivien Leigh complained in the kissing scenes that Clark Gable had bad breath. Apparently he had false teeth. Most movie stars do.
He also had sticky-out ears but he was so handsome.

Apparently Vivien Leigh didn't have enough cleavage for the infamous red dress, so one of the directors suggested she might need some padding. What God had forgotten, we stuffed with cotton.

Again TMI but Windies are gonna Wind.
 
In the scene where Rhett took Scarlett up the stairs, as a joke, they put extra weights in Vivien Leigh's nightgown so Clark Gable was exhausted taking her up after a few takes. lol
