Movie Reviews of Gone with the Wind (70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector's Edition) [Blu-ray]Movie Review: Very disappointed that this is not wide screen. Summary: 1 StarsI never thought that the Blue-Ray version of a grate movie would not be wide-screen. The lost beauty for the full panoramas is very disappointing. I'm sending it back and waiting for the real thing. Plus the music has lost something. I don't think they bothered to re-master it. Compare the sound to MP3 downloads from Amazon and you will hear the difference.
Summary of Gone with the Wind (70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector's Edition) [Blu-ray]Period romance. War epic. Family saga. Popular fiction adapted with crowd-pleasing brilliance. Star acting aglow with charisma and passion. Moviemaking craft at its height. These are sublimely joined in the words Gone with the Wind.
This dynamic and durable screen entertainment of the Civil War-era South comes home with the renewed splendor of a New 70th-Anniversary Digital Transfer capturing a higher-resolution image from Restored Picture Elements than ever before possible. David O. Selznick's monumental production of Margaret Mitchell's Pulitzer Prize-winning book can now enthrall new generations of home viewers with a majestic vibrance that befits one of Hollywood's greatest achievements.
David O. Selznick wanted Gone with the Wind to be somehow more than a movie, a film that would broaden the very idea of what a film could be and do and look like. In many respects he got what he worked so hard to achieve in this 1939 epic (and all-time box-office champ in terms of tickets sold), and in some respects he fell far short of the goal. While the first half of this Civil War drama is taut and suspenseful and nostalgic, the second is ramshackle and arbitrary. But there's no question that the film is an enormous achievement in terms of its every resource--art direction, color, sound, cinematography--being pushed to new limits for the greater glory of telling an American story as fully as possible. Vivien Leigh is still magnificently narcissistic, Olivia de Havilland angelic and lovely, Leslie Howard reckless and aristocratic. As for Clark Gable: we're talking one of the most vital, masculine performances ever committed to film. --Tom Keogh Stills from Gone with the Wind (70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector's Edition) (click for larger image)
