"Gone With The Wind."

I remember my mom saying that she fell in love with Clarke Gable when she saw the movie at its re-release in 1947. She said she was sitting in the upper balcony of the Tift Theater when she watched it for the first time.
When I started reading the book, I never stopped until the last page. I even wound up in my bedroom closet with a flashlight. I still say that Scarlett was a fool!
I have to say that by the end of that darn book I really felt like I deserved a happy ending. Not so much Scarlet, but me. I deserved it. What a let-down! :)
