There, I said it. Ever since its premiere in 1939 "Gone With The Wind" set the bar for which all motion pictures after it. There would be no "Star Wars," "Ben Hur," "Titanic," or "Lord Of The Rings" Trilogy if "Gone With The Wind" had not been such a grand achievement. Every frame of the film drips with sheer perfection. The sets are grand, the acting marvelous, and the direction impeccable. My favorite thing about "Gone With The Wind" would have to be the cast. Hattie Macdaniel was marvelous as Mammy, Olivia DeHaviland heavenly as Melanie, Leslie Howard great as Ashley, and Clark Gable is sheer perfection as Rhett Butler. Last but certainly not least, Vivien Leigh IS Scarlett O'Hara. Isn't it obvious that I love this movie? With that said, let's take a look at the DVD. Movie: (Ten Million/5) Picture: If you already own the previous single disc release from MGM, you can safely throw it away in favor of this set. Simply put, the picture is marvelous. The film has been painstakingly restored from the original 3-Strip Technicolor Negatives. When the three Technicolor negatives are re-aligned, there is a level of clarity that has never been seen before. There is a featurette in the supplements section that explains just how this process was accomplished. Compared to previous VHS, Laserdisc, and DVD incarnations, the results are truly startling. The colors are wondrous, the picture is sharp, and there are no faults to be found at all. Simply amazing! (6/5) Sound: The film's soundtrack has been remastered in a wonderful new Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack. There results are simply splendid. In a comparison, this is the same track that appeared on the single disc DVD. However, that is not a bad thing. The dialog souds great. There is no hiss or distortion of any kind. Surround activity is limited (What do you expect? The soundtrack was recorded in 1939!) The surrounds benefit the most from Max Steiner's wondrous score, and in the evacuation of Atlanta sequence. For purists, the film's original mono soundtrack has also been included, and it sounds great. (5/5) Extras: Rejoice! Fans at long last have the definitve version of "Gone With The Wind!" There are tons of goodies in this set. Discs One and Two house the film itself. They also contain an excellent commentary by film historian Rudy Behlmer. His commentary is interesting and informative that is filled with fascinating bits of information about the production. Discs Three and Four house the bulk of the extras. "Making of a Legend: Gone With The Wind" is the best documentary on the making of a film I have ever seen. There are interviews with many of the kehy people in the production as well as screen tests, Oscar footage, archival footage, and much more. This is worth the price of the box set alone. Next up is "Restoring A Legend." This takes you inside Warner's restoration facilities to see firsthand the painstaking restoration that went into this set. This is one of my favorite featurettes simply because it is so nice to hear about all the hard work, sweat, blood, tears, and most of all love that Warner Brothers Home Video is putting into making "Gone With The Wind" and other classic titles so they can look and sound their best for years to come. Bravo! On disc three you'll also find "Dixie Hails Gone With The Wind!" short, "Civil War Centennial" short, "The Old South" short, the international prologue to explain to other countries what the Civil War was, brief international language dub scenes, and a trailer gallery. On disc four you'll find "Melanie Remembers: Reflections by Olivia DeHaviland." Ms. DeHaviland is a gracious hostess, and it is a joy to hear her recollections. "Gable: The King Remembered" is a 1975 documentary on Clark Gable. This is very classy and quite informative, and was an excellent addition. "Vivien Leigh: Scarlett and Beyond" is next. This is also a great documentary on the legendary actress, and is quite well done. Next are numerous mini documentaries on the supporting players that run from under one minute to around five minutes in length. These are nice to have, and really help to round out the set. Also included is a reproduction of the original 1939 souvenir program. Very classy. (10/5) Overall: The greatest film ever made gets, in my opinion, the best DVD ever produced. Thank god Warner knows how to preserve these this and other classic films so people can continue to appreciate them for generations to come. A superb restoration and a plethora of extras make this a no-brainer. If you only buy one DVD in your life, buy this one! This is the best DVD I have ever seen, and I am so happy to have it in my collection. Thank you Warner Brothers for getting it right! (10/5) Review: Gone With the Wind DVD - Awesome movie!

(10/5) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gone With the Wind DVD *by D***S on April 10, 2026* Awesome movie! Great to watch it again! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A classic movie *by S***R on March 29, 2022* Gone With the Wind is a movie that causes a lot of division, especially with the rise of the infantile division we have had in the country for years. The truth is, it can both be a classic movie and have a problematic theme. But, it also has to be looked at through the lens of history. It is a movie that could be made the way it was in 1939 with the understanding that it would probably never be made the same way today. And that is not to say it shouldn't be made the same way today. It was set during the Civil War and told from the perspective of people in the south. Obviously, most people today would not agree with the perspective of the rich, slave-owning, southerners of that time, but it does not mean that how they were portrayed in the movie is not how they were. Also, the movie was a dramatic period piece, not a documentary. So, it was never going to show the evils of slavery in all their gory details. And, I do think to say that the movie glorified slavery does a couple of things. First, it ignores the fact that there were in fact slaves that had roles such as "Mammy", and it also diminishes Hattie McDonald's achievement in playing that role. The fact that she was a black woman living under the Jim Crow laws and facing the racism that she did and still won an academy award is frankly amazing. And. let's face it, even states that did not have Jim Crow laws were not devoid of racists by any means, so the fact that a black woman in the late 1930s/early 1940s would even be nominated for an academy award, much less win it, was quite something. All that said, no, the movie is never going to be banned, and anyone who thinks so is kidding themselves, if you want to find it, you will always be able to do so, and if a disclaimer at the beginning of it really triggers you, it has been released on DVD and Blu-Ray multiple times. As for the movie itself, as I said above, it is a drama set in the south during (and after) the Civil War. It stars Vivien Leigh as Scarlett O'Hara, who is basically a rich brat, who at the beginning of the movie is trying to steal her cousin's boyfriend. Clarke Gable plays Rhett Butler, who was an attendee at a party thrown at the O'Hara estate who did not buy into the fact that the war was going to be a quick and easy thing, and also, ultimately ended up gaining Scarlett's affection, by basically standing up to her and not taking any of her crap, and marrying her. The movie is partly a romance drama, but mostly about the ravages of war, telling how Scarlett had to grow up and transform from the bratty Southern Belle who was handed everything on a silver platter, to having to deal with the realities of war. The first part of the movie (up to the intermission) deals with the war and ends with Atlanta burning. The second part deals with the aftermath of the war, and the characters trying to put their lives back together. For those who get the movie on Blu-Ray, it looks and sounds great in the HD format. The HD transfer was very well done, and while it still has the Film-noir era look to it, the video transfer does look great. What kind of extras you get depends on the version of the movie you pick up. There is a multi-disc collectors edition that has about 19 hours' worth of bonus content. The version I have is the single-disc 70th Anniversary edition, and the only extra on it is a commentary track by Historian Rudy Behlmer. Overall, the movie is a timeless classic. It has many great quotable lines, and it tells a good story, although definitely from the perspective of the losing side in the Civil War. Chances are, if it were made today more of the evils of slavery would be shown to give it more context, and show exactly why the Civil War was being fought. And yes, the civil war was about slavery, pure and simple. If you read the articles of secession from any of the states that formed the Confederacy, that is plain as day, and to say otherwise is denying all reality. I do not think the movie glorified slavery as much as it glorified the south overall. But, again, taking the movie for what it is and considering the time it was made, it can both be a classic movie and a topic of debate at the same time. And, I think a healthy debate about what was good and what may have been problematic about the movies would not necessarily be a bad thing. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.uy/products/12393068-gone-with-the-wind-bd](https://www.desertcart.uy/products/12393068-gone-with-the-wind-bd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Uruguay* *Store origin: UY* *Last updated: 2026-04-30*
