Yeah, if we were expelled from college,
Scarlett, the war's going to start any

day now, so we'd have left college
anyhow.

War? Isn't it exciting, Scarlett? You
know those foolish things, war to war?

We'll show them. Fiddle -dee -dee.

War, war, war.

This war talk's spoiling all the fun at
every party this spring. I get so bored

I could scream.

Besides, there isn't going to be any
war. There's not going to be any war.

Bonnie, of course there's going to be a
war.

If either of you boys says war, just
once again, I'll go in the house and

the door. But, Scarlett, honey... Don't
you want us to have a war?

But remember, I warned you.

I've got an idea.

We'll talk about the barbecue the
Wilkeses are giving over 12 Oaks

That's a good idea.

You're eating barbecue with us, aren't
you, Scarlet? Well, I haven't thought

about that yet. I'll think about that
tomorrow.

And we want all your Walces. First
Brent, then me, then Brent, then me

then so on. Promise?

I'd just love to.

If only I didn't have every one of them
taken already.

Well, honey, you can't do that to us.

How about if we tell you a secret?

Secret? Who about?

Well, you know Miss Melanie Hamilton
from Atlanta?

Anthony Wilkes' cousin? Well, she's
visiting. The Wilkes is at 12 o 'clock.

Melanie Hamilton, that goody -goody. Who
wants to know a secret about her? Well,

anyway, we heard, that is, they say
that... Anthony Wilkes is going to marry

her. You know the Wilkes is always
married to their cousin. Now do we get

waltzes? Of course. Yee -haw!

Yee -haw!

The other boys will be happy. Let her
be, man. We can handle it.

It can't be true.

Asha loves me.

Call it.

What do you suppose has gotten into her?
Do you suppose we said something that

made her mad?

Missed out!

says it's quitting time. I said it's
quitting time. I's the foreman. I's the

says when it's quitting time a terror.

Quitting time!

None of the county can touch you and
none of the state.

Paul!

How proud of yourself you are!

Well, Katie Scarlett O 'Hara, so, you've
been spying on me. And like your sister

Sue Ellen, you've been telling your
mother on me that I was jumping again.

Paul, you know I'm no tattletale like
Sue Ellen. But it does seem to me that

after you broke your knee last year
jumping that same fence... I'll not have

own daughter telling me what I shall
jump and not jump.

It's my own neck, so it is. All right,
poor you, jump at you, please.

How are they all over at 12 Oaks? The
Wilkeses? Oh, and the stew you would

expect with the barbecue tomorrow and
talking nothing but war. How about the

war? Was there anyone else there?

Oh, their cousin Melanie Hamilton from
Atlanta and her brother Charles. Melanie

Hamilton. She's a pale -faced, mealy
-mouthed nanny and I hate her. Ashley

Wilkes doesn't think so.

Ashley Wilkes couldn't like anyone like
her.

What's your interest in Ashley and Miss
Melanie?

It's... It's nothing. Let's go into the
house, Paul.

Has he been trifling with you?

Has he asked you to marry him? No. No,
nor will he. I had it in strictest

confidence from John Wilkes this
afternoon.

Ashley's going to marry Miss Melanie.

It'll be announced tomorrow night at the
ball.

I don't believe it.

Here. Here, what are you after?

Got it.

What are you about?

Have you been making a spectacle of
yourself running about after a man who's

in love with you when you might have any
of the bucks in the county?

I haven't been running after him. It's
just a surprise, that's all. Now, don't

be jerking your chin at me.

If Ashley wanted to marry you, it would
be with Miss Givings, I'd say, yes?

I want my girl to be happy. And you'd
not be happy with him. I would, I would.

Well, what difference does it make who
you marry?

So long as he's a southerner and thinks
like you.

And when I'm gone, I leave Tara to you.

I don't want Tara.

Plantations don't mean anything when...
Do you mean to tell me, Katie Scarlet O

'Hara, that Tara, that land doesn't mean
anything to you? Why, land is the only

thing in the world worth working for,
worth fighting for, worth dying for.

Because it's the only thing that lasts.
Oh, Paul, you talk like an Irishman.

It's proud I am that I'm Irish. And
don't you be forgetting, Missy, that

half Irish, too.

And to anyone with a drop of Irish blood
in them, why, the land they live on is

like their mother.

Oh, but there, there. No, you're just a
child.

It'll come to you, this love of the
land.

There's no getting away from it if
you're Irish.

Miss Corrine, your mama's home.

Acting like a wet nurse to them low
-down poor white trash slattery. Instead

being here eating her supper. Cookie,
they're up to fire. Miss Ellen's home.

They don't got no business wearing
herself out.

Bob. Yes, ma 'am. Take the lamp out on
the court.

Wearing herself out. Mr. Jeff.

Miss Ellen's home.

Wearing herself out waiting on the poor
white trash.

He finished plowing the creek bottom
today.

What do you want me to start on
tomorrow?

Mr. Wilkerson, I've just come from Emmy
Slattery's bedside.

Your child has been born.

My child, ma 'am?

I'm sure I don't understand.

Has been born and mercifully has died.

Good night, Mr. Wilkerson.

I'll pick your supper for you myself
when you eat this. It's after prayers,

'am. Yes, sir.

Mr. O 'Hara.

You must dismiss Jonas Wilkerson.

Dismiss him, Mrs. O 'Hara?

He's the best overseer in the county. He
must go tomorrow morning, the first

thing. But... No.

The Yankee Wilkerson and the white trash
slattery girl? Now, we'll discuss it

later, Mr. O 'Hara.

Yes, Mrs. O 'Hara.

I don't like your tone, Sue Ellen. Your
pink gown is lovely. Oh, Mother, can't I

stay up for the ball tomorrow? You may
wear my garments with it.

Why can't I stay up for the ball
tomorrow night?

Carly, you look tired, my dear. I'm
worried about you.

Why, I'm all right, Mother.

Why can't I stay up for the ball
tomorrow night?

I'm 13 now.

You may go to the barbecue and stay up
to supper. I didn't want to wear your

tacky green dress anyhow, Stingy. Oh,
hush up.

Prayers, girls.

And to all the saints that I have sinned
exceedingly in thought, word, and deed,

through my fault, through my fault,
through my most grievous fault.

Ever I beseech thee, blessed Mary, the
Virgin, blessed Mary, the Archangel,

blessed John the Baptist, the Holy
Apostles Peter and Paul.

He doesn't know I love him.

I'll tell him that I love him.

And then he can't marry.

Grandma's pardon.

Absolution. The remission of our sins.

Amen.

Just hold on and suck in it.

Mommy, here's Miss Scarlet's pickles.

You can take that all back to the
kitchen. I won't need to buy it.

Oh, yes, and you is. You's going to eat
every mouthful of this.

Oh, I'm not.

So put on the dress, because we're late
already.

What's my lamb going to wear? That.

No, you ain't. You can't show your bosom
for a few o 'clock.

I'm going to speak to your ma about you.

If you say one word to mother, I won't
eat a bite.

Keep the shawl on your shoulder.

I ain't even for you to get all freckled
after the buttermilk I done put on you

all this winter.

Oh,

now, Miss

Scarlet, you come on and be good and eat
just a little, honey. No.

I'm going to have a good time today.

And do my eating at the barbecue.

If you don't care what folks says about
this family, I does.

I has told you and told you that you can
always tell a lady by the way that she

eat in front of folks like a bird. And I
ain't aiming for you to go to Mr. John

Wilkinson's and eat like a field hand
and dabble like a hawk. Fiddle -dee

Ashley Wilkinson told me he likes to see
a girl with a healthy appetite.

What gentlemen says and what they think
is two different things. And I ain't

noticed Mr. Ashley asking for to marry
you.

Now, don't eat too fast. Ain't no need
to have me come right back up again.

Why does a girl have to be so silly to
catch her husband?

It's a grand day you'll be having for
the barbecue.

So it seems, General.

But why isn't Mrs. O 'Hara with you?
She's after settling accounts with the

Overseer, but she'll be along for the
ball tonight.

Welcome to 12 Oaks, Mr. O 'Hara. Thank
you kindly, India.

Your daughter's getting prettier every
day, John.

Oh, India, here are the O 'Hara girls.
We must greet them.

I can't stand that Scarlet. If you'd see
the way she throws herself at Ashley.

Now, now, that's your brother's
business.

He must remember your duties as hostess.

Good morning, girls.

You're looking lovely.

Good morning, Scarlett.

Give me a wink. What a lovely dress.

You just can't take my eyes off you.

Good morning, Miss Scarlett.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning, Miss Scarlett.

Ashley.

Scarlett. My dear.

I've been looking for you everywhere.

I've got something I must tell you.

Can't we go someplace where it's quiet?

Yes, I'd like to, but I... I have
something to tell you, too.

Something I... I hope you'll be glad to
hear.

Come and say hello to my cousin Melanie
first.

Oh, do we have to?

She's been looking forward to seeing you
again.

Melanie!

Here's Scarlet.

I'm so glad to see you.

Melanie Hamilton, what a surprise to run
into you here.

I hope you're going to stay with us a
few days. Leave. I hope I should stay

enough for us to become real friends,
Scarlett.

I do so want us to be.

We'll keep her here, won't we, Scarlett?

Oh, we'll just have to make a bigger
fuss over her, won't we, Ashley? And if

anybody knows how to give a girl a good
time, it's Ashley.

Though I think our good times seem
terribly silly to you because you're so

serious. Oh, Scarlett, you have so much
life.

I've always admired you so. I wish I
could be more like you.

You mustn't flatter me, Melanie, and say
things you don't mean.

Nobody could accuse Melanie of being
insincere.

Could they, my dear?

Oh, then she's not like you, is she,
Ashley?

Ashley never means a word he says to any
girl.

Oh, why, Charles Hamilton, you handsome
old thing, you.

But, oh, Miss O 'Hara. Do you think that
was kind to bring your good -looking

brother down here just to break my poor
simple country girl's heart?

Look at Scarlett. She never even noticed
Charles before. Now, just because it's

your boat, she's after him like a
hornet. Charles Hamilton, I want to eat

barbecue with you. And mind you, don't
go planning with any other girl, because

I'm mighty jealous.

I won't, Miss O 'Hara.

I couldn't.

I do declare, Frank Kennedy, you don't
look dashing with that new set of

whiskers. Oh, thank you, thank you, Miss
Scarlett.

You know, Charles Hamilton and Waite
Cabot asked me to eat barbecue with

but I told them I couldn't, because I
promised you.

Oh, you needn't be so amused. Look at
her.

She's after your bow now.

Oh, that's about a flattering of you,
Miss Scarlet.

I'll see what I can do, Miss Scarlet.

What's your sister so mad about,
Scarlet? You sparking her bow?

As if I couldn't get a better bow than
that old maiden Bridget.

Brenton's doing tossing, you handsome
old thing. Oh, no, you're not. I'm not

going to say that. I'm mad at you. What
have we done, honey? You haven't been

near me all day, and I wore this old
dredge just because I thought you liked

I was counting on eating barbecue with
you two. Well, you are, Scarlet. Of

course you are, honey.

I can't make up my mind which of you
two's the handsome.

I was awake all last night trying to
figure it out.

Kathleen,

who's there?

Who? That man looking at us and smiling.

The nasty dog.

My dear, don't you know?

That's Rhett Butler. He's from
Charleston. He has the most terrible

He looks as if he knows what I look like
without my shimmy. To call it.

But my dear, he isn't received.

He's had to spend most of his time up
north because his folks in Charleston

won't even speak to him. He was expelled
from West Point so fast.

And then there's that business about
that girl he wouldn't marry.

Tell, tell.

Well, he took her out buggy riding in
the late afternoon without a chaperone.

And then, and then he refused to marry
her.

No. But she was ruined just the same.

Ashley.

Happy? So happy.

You seem to belong here.

As if it had all been imagined for you.

I like to feel that I belong to the
things you love. You love Twelve Oaks as

do. Yes, Ashley.

I love it as... as more than a house.

It's a whole world that wants only to be
graceful and beautiful.

It's so unaware that it may not last
forever.

You're afraid of what may happen if the
war comes, aren't you?

But we don't have to be afraid for us.

No war can come into our world, Ashley.

Whatever comes, I'll love you just as I
do now until I die.

Now, isn't it better than sitting at a
table? The girl hasn't got the two sides

to her at the table.

I'll go get a dessert.

Yeah, she said me. Allow me, Miss O
'Hara.

I think... I think Charles Hamilton may
get it.

Oh, thank you, Miss O 'Hara.

Thank you.

Go get it.

Give me the lucky...

Miss O 'Hara, I love you.

I don't guess I'm as hungry as I
thought.

Why do I have to take a nap? I'm not
tired.

Well, brought up young ladies take naps
at parlor. And it's high time you

started behaving yourself and acting
like you was Miss Ellen's dog.

When we were at Saratoga, I didn't
notice any Yankee girls taking naps. No,

you ain't gonna see no Yankee girls at
the balls tonight, neither.

How is Ashley today, Scarlet? He didn't
seem to be paying much attention to you.

You mind your own business.

You'll be lucky if you don't lose old
Whiskapace Kennedy.

You've been sweet on Ashley for months,
and his engagement's going to be

announced tonight.

That's as much as you know.

Miss Scarlet, Miss Sue Ellen, you all
behave yourself.

Act like poor white trash children. If
you're old enough to go to parties,

you're old enough to act like ladies.
Who cares?

We've borne enough insults from the
Madeleine Yankees. It's time we made

understand we'll keep our slaves with or
without their approval.

It was the sovereign right of the state
of Georgia to secede from the Union.

That's right.

The South must assert herself by force
of arms.

After we've fired on the Yankee rascals
at Fort Sumter, we've got to fight.

There's no other way.

Fight, that's right, fight. Let the
Yankees be the one to ask for peace. The

situation's very simple. The Yankees
can't fight and we can.

That's what I think. They'll just turn
and run every time.

One southerner can lick 20 Yankees. I
will finish him in one battle.

Gentlemen can always fight better than
rattles. Yes, gentlemen always fight

better than rattles. And what does the
captain of our troop say?

Well, gentlemen, if Georgia fights, I go
with her.

But like my father, I hope that the
Yankees will let us leave the Union in

peace. But, Ashley... But, Ashley,
they've insulted us. You can't mean you

want war.

Most of the miseries of the world were
caused by wars.

And when the wars were over,

No one ever knew what they were about.

No,

gentlemen, Mr. Butler's been up north, I
hear.

Don't you agree with us, Mr. Butler?

I think it's hard winning a war with
words, gentlemen.

What do you mean, sir?

I mean, Mr. Hamilton, there's not a
cannon factory in the whole South.

What difference does that make, sir, to
a gentleman?

I'm afraid it's going to make a great
deal of difference to a great many

gentlemen, sir.

Are you hinting, Mr. Butler, that the
Yankees can lick us?

No, I'm not hinting.

I'm saying very plainly that the Yankees
are better equipped than we.

They've got factories, shipyards, coal
mines, and a fleet to bottle up our

harbors and starve us to death.

All we've got is cotton and slaves and
arrogance.

That's treacherous, sir. I refuse to
listen to any renegade talk.

I'm sorry if the truth offends you.

Apologies aren't enough, sir.

I hear you were turned out of West
Point, Mr. Red Butler, and that you

receive any decent family in Charleston,
not even your own.

I apologize again for all my
shortcomings.

Mr. Wilkes, perhaps you won't mind if I
walk about and look over your place.

I seem to be spoiling everybody's brandy
and cigars and dreams of victory.

Well, that's just about what you could
expect from somebody like Rhett Butler.

You did everything but call him out. He
refused to fight. Not quite that,

Charles. He just refused to take
advantage of you. Take advantage of me?

he's one of the best shots in the
country. He's proved a number of times.

Against steadier hands and cooler heads
than yours. Well, I'll show him. No, no,

no, please. Don't go tweaking his nose
anymore.

You may be needed for more important
fighting, Charles.

Now, if you'll excuse me, Mr. Butler is
our guest.

I think I'll just show him around.

Yes.

Scarlett.

Who are you hiding from in here?

What are you up to?

Why aren't you upstairs resting with the
other girls?

What is this, Scarlett? A secret?

Oh, Ashley.

Ashley. I love you.

Scarlett. I love you, I do.

Isn't it enough that you've gathered
every other man's heart today?

You've always had mine.

You've cut your teeth on it. Oh, don't
tease me now.

Have I your heart, my darling? I love
you, I love you. You mustn't say such

things.

You'll hate me for hearing them.

Oh, I'll never hate you. And I know you
must care about me.

Oh, you do care, don't you?

Yes.

I care.

Oh, can't we go away and forget we ever
said these things?

Can we do that?

Don't you... Don't you want to marry me?
I'm going to marry Melanie.

But you can't, not if you care for me.

Oh, my dear, why must you make me say
things that will hurt you?

How can I make you understand?

You're so young, and I'm thinking you
don't know what marriage means. I know I

love you, and I want to be your wife.

You don't love Melanie.

She's like me, Scarlet.

She's part of my blood, and we
understand each other.

But you love me.

How could I help loving you?

You who have all the passion for life
that I lack.

But that kind of love isn't enough to
make a successful marriage for two

who are as different as we are. Why
don't you say it, you coward?

You're afraid to marry me.

You'd rather live with that silly little
fool who can't open a mouth except to

say yes, no, and raise a paddle of mealy
-mouthed brass just like him. Of course

the same thing's like that about mealy
-mouthed brass. Who are you to tell me I

mustn't? You led me on. You made me
believe you wanted to marry me. Now,

Scarlet, be fair.

I never at any time... You did. It's
true. You did.

Has the war started?

Sir, you... You should have made your
presence known.

In the middle of that beautiful love
scene?

That wouldn't have been very tactful,
would it?

But don't worry.

Your secret is safe with me.

Sir, you are no gentleman. And you,
miss, are no lady.

Don't think that I hold that against
you.

Ladies have never held any charm for me.

First you take a low, common advantage
of me. Then you insult me.

I meant it as a compliment.

And I hope to see more of you when
you're free of the spell of the elegant

Wilkes. He doesn't strike me as half
good enough for a girl of your... What

it? Your passion for living?

How dare you? You aren't fit to wipe his
boots.

And you were going to hate him for the
rest of your life.

Well, she simply made a fool of herself
running after all the men at the

barbecue. That's not fair, India.

She's so attractive, the men just
naturally flock to her.

Oh, Melanie, you're just too good to be
true. Didn't you even see her going

after your brother Charles? Yes, and she
knows Charles belongs to me.

Oh, you're wrong, India.

Girl, it's just high -spirited and
vivacious.

Well, men may flirt with girls like
that, but they don't marry them. I think

you're being very mean to her.

Bloody D, don't you men ever think about
anything important? But it's war, Miss

O 'Hara, and everybody's going off to
the list. They're going right away. I'm

going, too. Everybody?

Oh, Miss O 'Hara, will you be sorry to
see us go?

Oh, I cry under my pillow every night.

Oh, Miss O 'Hara, I told you I loved
you.

I think you're the most beautiful girl
in the world, and the sweetest, the

dearest.

I know I couldn't hope that you could
love me, so... Clumsy and stupid and not

nearly good enough for you. But if you
could, if you could think of marrying

I'd do anything in the world for you.
Just anything, I promise.

What did you say?

Miss O 'Hara, I said, would you marry
me?

Yes, Mr. Hamilton.

I will.

You will? You'll marry me? You'll wait
for me? I don't think I'd want to wait.

You mean you'll marry me before I go?

Oh, Miss O 'Hara.

Scarlet. When may I speak to your
father?

Sooner the better.

I'll go now. I can't wait. Will you
excuse me?

Dear.

Dear.

Mr. O 'Hara! Mr. O 'Hara!

It'll be a week at least before they
call on me. Only a week, and then

take you away from me.

I thought of you at our wedding
yesterday, and I hoped that yours would

beautiful. And it was.

Was it?

Now we're really and truly sisters.

Charles.

Don't cry, darling.

The wall will be open in a few weeks,
and I'll be coming back to you.

Miss Scarlet.

I don't care.

I'm too young to be a widow.

Miss Scarlet.

Why just go around scaring people in
that thing?

You ain't supposed to be around people
using mourning.

For what? I don't feel anything.

Why should I have to pretend and
pretend?

What is it?

Oh, baby.

What is it?

You ought to look young and be young
when you are young.

How would you like to go visiting
somewhere?

Savannah, perhaps?

What would I do in Savannah?

Well, Atlanta, then. There's lots going
on there.

And you could stay with Melanie under
Aunt Pitypat.

Melanie.

Yes.

Yes, I could, couldn't I?

Oh, Mother, you're sweet to me. Sweeter
than anybody in the world. You'd like

it, really.

All right, then. Now stop your crying.

Smile.

You can take Prissy with you.

Start packing the scarlet things, Nanny.

I'll go write the necessary letters.

Atlanta.

Savannah would be better for you. You
just get in trouble in Atlanta.

What trouble are you talking about?

You know what trouble I was talking
about. I was talking about Mr. Ashton

Wilkes. He'll be coming to Atlanta when
he gets his leave, and you're sitting

there waiting for him just like a
spider.

He belongs to Miss Melanie. You go pack
my things like Mother said.

They're all whispering, and I'll just
know it's both her... What's it matter

with they being pretty bad? But Scarlet
is living under my roof, so they all

think I'm responsible for her. And for a
widow to appear in public at a social

gathering, every time I think of it, I
feel pain.

But Aunt Fetty, you know Scarlet came
here only to help raise money for the

cause. It was splendid of her to make
this act of bias.

Anyone would think to hear you talk that
she came here to dance instead of to

sell things.

Another triumph for our magnificent men
in arms.

General Lee has completely whipped the
enemy and swept the Yankee army

from Virginia.

And now,

a happy surprise for all of us. We have
with us tonight that most daring of all

blockade runners, who's... fleet
schooners slipping past the Yankee guns

brought us here the very woolens and
laces we wear tonight.

I refer, ladies and gentlemen, to that
will -o' -the -wisp of the bounding

none other than our friend from
Charleston, Captain Rat Butler.

Captain Butler, such a pleasure to see
you again.

I met you last at my husband's home.

That's kind of you to remember, Mrs.
Wills.

Did you meet Captain Butler at 12 Oaks,
Scarlet?

Yes, I... I think so.

Only for a moment, Mrs. Hamilton. It was
in the library.

You, uh, had broken something.

Yes, Captain Butler, I remember you.

Ladies, the Confederacy asked for your
jewelry on behalf of our noble cause.

We aren't wearing any. We're in
mourning.

Wait.

On behalf of Mrs. Wilkes and Mrs.
Hammond.

Thank you, Captain Butler.

Just a moment, please.

What is your wedding ring, ma 'am?

It may help my husband more.

Off my finger.

Thank you.

It's a very beautiful thing to do, Mrs.
Wilkes.

Here.

You can have mine, too.

Of course.

And you, Mrs. Hamilton, I know just how
much that means to you.

Melanie. Yes, Doctor? I need your
approval as a member of the committee

something we want to do that's rather
shocking.

Will you excuse us, please?

I'll say one thing. The war makes the
most peculiar widows.

I wish you'd go away.

If it hadn't been raining, you'd know
I'd never want to see you again.

Now, why be silly?

You've no reason for hating me.

I'll carry your guilty secret to my
grave.

Oh, I guess I'd be very unpatriotic to
hate one of the great heroes of the war.

I do declare I was surprised that you
turned out to be such a noble character.

I can't bear to take advantage of your
little girl ideas, Miss O 'Hara.

I am neither noble nor heroic.

But you are a blockade runner.

For profit, and profit only.

Are you trying to tell me you don't
believe in the cause? I believe in Rhett

Butler. He's the only cause I know. The
rest doesn't mean much to me.

Ladies and gentlemen, I have a startling
surprise for the benefit of the

hospital. What is that?

Gentlemen, if you wish to lead the
opening reel with the lady of your

you must bid for her.

Caroline Mead, how can you permit your
husband to conduct this, this slave

auction? Darling Merriweather, how dare
you criticize me?

Melanie Wilkes told the doctor that if
it's for the benefit of the cause, it's

quite all right. She did?

Oh, dear.

Oh, dear.

Where are my smelling salts?

I think I shall faint. Don't you dare
think that, Hamilton.

If Marnie says it's all right, it is all
right.

Come, gentlemen. Do I hear your bids?
Make your offers.

Don't be bashful, gentlemen.

$20.

$20 for Miss Mabel Merriweather.

$25 for Miss Fanny Olsen. Only $25 to
give you $150 in gold.

For what lady, sir?

For Mrs.

Charles Hamilton.

For whom, sir?

Mrs. Charles Hamilton.

Mrs. Hamilton is in mourning, Captain
Butler.

But I'm sure any of our Atlanta Bells
would be proud to... Dr. Meade, I said

Mrs. Charles Hamilton.

She will not consider it so.

We've sort of shocked the Confederacy,
Scarlett. It's a little bit like

running, isn't it? It's worse.

And I expect a very fancy profit out of
it.

Well, I don't care what you expect or
what they think. I'm going to dance and

dance. Tonight I wouldn't mind dancing
with Abe Lincoln himself.

Never dance my reputation below forever.

There's enough courage you can do
without a reputation.

Oh, you do talk scoundrel.

You do want a diviner, Captain Butler.

Don't start flirting with me. I'm not
one of your plantation foes.

I want more than flirting from you.

What do you want?

I'll tell you, Scarlet O 'Hare.

You'll take that southern belle simple
off your face.

Someday I want you to say to me the
words I heard you say to Ashley Wilkes.

I love you.

That's something you'll never hear from
me, Captain Butler, as long as you live.

How sweet.

How kind.

He is a thoughtful gentleman.

Fiddly D.

Why doesn't he say something about my
sacrifice?

Oh!

Oh!

Oh, the darling thing.

Oh, Red, it's lovely, lovely.

You didn't really bring it all the way
from Paris just for me.

Yes, I thought it was about time I got
you out of that fake morning.

Next trip, I'll bring you some green
silk for a frock to match it.

Oh, Red!

It's my duty to our brave boys at the
front to keep our girls at home looking

pretty. Oh, it's so long since I had
anything new.

How do I look?

Awful. Just awful.

Why was the matter?

This war has stopped being a joke when a
girl like you doesn't know how to wear

the latest fashion.

Oh, Red.

Let me do it.

But, Red, I don't know how I dare wear
it.

You will, though.

And another thing.

Those pantalettes.

I don't know a woman in Paris that wears
pantalettes anymore.

Oh, what do they... You shouldn't talk
about such things.

You little hypocrite. You don't mind my
knowing about them, just my talking

about them.

But, Red, I really can't go on accepting
these gifts, though you are awfully

kind. I'm not kind. I'm just tempting
you.

I never give anything without expecting
something in return. I always get paid.

Well, if you think I'll marry you, just
pay for the bonnet. I won't. Don't

flatter yourself.

I'm not a marrying man.

Well, I won't kiss you for it either.

Open your eyes and look at me.

No, I don't think I will kiss you.

Although you need kissing badly.

That's what's wrong with you.

You should be kissed and often, and by
someone who knows how.

Oh, and I suppose you think you are the
proper person.

I might be, if the right moment ever
came.

You're a conceited, black -hearted,
vomit -red button. I don't know why I

you come and see me.

I'll tell you why, Scarlett.

Because I'm the only man over 16 and
under 60 who's around to show you a good

time.

But cheer up. The war can't last much
longer.

Really, Red? Why?

There's a little battle going on right
now that ought to pretty well fix

one way or the other. Oh, Red.

Is Ashley in it?

So you still haven't gotten the wooden
-headed Mr. Wilkes out of your mind?

I suppose he's in it.

But tell me, Red, where is it?

Some little town in Pennsylvania called
Gettysburg.

Hazel, the list.

Hazel, the list.

Hazel, the list.

Here you are, Miss Melanie.

They was fighting for them, so they just
got two in hand.

Scarlet, you look.

The W's at the end.

Wellman, Wendell, White, Whitner,
Wilkins, Williams, Woolsey, Whitman.

you've passed him.

Oh, he's in there.

He's in there.

Ashley, stay.

Scarlett, you're so sweet to worry about
Ashley like this for me.

I must go to her.

Don't, my dear. Not here.

Let's go home.

Talk to me.

Not here.

Our boy, Dorothy.

I was making these mittens for him.

He won't need them now.

show them, I'll kill all those Yankees.
You don't need to hush your mouth. Do

you think it'll help your mother to have
you off getting shot, too? I never

heard of anything so silly.

It's a black day, Scarlet.

You haven't had bad news, have you?

Ashley's safe.

I'm glad.

For Mrs. Wilkes' sake. Where there are
so many others.

Many of your friends? Just by every
family in the garden.

The Tarleton boys read both of them.
Yes.

Look at them. All these poor, tragic
people.

The South singing to a sneeze.

It'll never rise again.

The cause.

The cause of living in the past is dying
right in front of us.

I never heard you talk like that before.

I'm angry.

Waste always makes me angry, and that's
what all this is, sheer waste.

But don't you be downcast.

Ashley Wilkes is still alive to come
home to the women who love him.

Both of them.

I've waited so long.

Melanie, my dear, my darling wife.

Oh, but we're getting scarlet.

Scarlet, dear.

Why, is this any way to greet a
returning warrior?

Ashley.

Merry Christmas, Ashley.

Come on, old gentleman.

Come on.

We's had all your wives.

We's had all your little chicks.

You got nobody to worry your head about
for leaving.

Come on.

Now you just stand still so you can be
Christmas gift for the white folks.

Hold on.

Hold on.

Don't go getting so uppity.

Even if you is the last chicken in
Atlanta.

Oh, let's not talk about the war. It's
Christmas.

Let's talk about 12 Oaks and Perrin all
the time before there wasn't the old

war. Can we have a wine, Aunt Peter?

Why did you say there wasn't enough,
Uncle Peter?

There's plenty.

It's the very last of my father's fine
Madeira. He got it from his uncle,

Admiral Will Hamilton of Savannah, who
married his cousin, Jessica Carroll of

Carrollton, who was his second cousin
once removed, and akin to the Wilkeses,

too. I saved it to wish Ashley a Merry
Christmas.

But you mustn't drink it all at once,
because it...

is the last.

I meant it, my dear. It was a lovely
Christmas gift.

Only generals have tunics like this
nowadays.

I'm so happy you like it, dear.

Where did you get the cloth?

It was sent me by a Charleston lady.

I nursed her son while he was in the
hospital, Ashley, before he died.

Oh, you will take good care of it, won't
you?

You won't let it get torn.

Promise me. You mustn't worry.

I'll bring it back to you without any
holding it.

I promise.

Good night, my dear.

Good night, darling, darling.

Tell me, Uncle Peter, is it time for Mr.
Asher to leave?

Pretty quick now, Miss Scarlet.

Miss Melanie, she isn't going to the
depot with him. She hasn't changed her

mind. No, ma 'am, she's laying down.

She's so upset, Mr. Wilkes told her she
can't even come downstairs.

Ashley.

Ashley, let me go to the depot with you.

Oh, call it. I'd rather remember you as
you are now, not shivering at the depot.

Oh, Ashley, I've got a present for you,
too.

Why, Scarlett, it's beautiful.

Tie it on me, my dear.

Why, Nellie, with making a new tunic, I
made this to go with it.

You made it yourself?

Well, then I shall value it all the
more.

You know there's nothing I wouldn't do
for you.

There's something you can do for me.

What is it?

Will you look after Melanie for me?

She's so frail and gentle, and she loves
you so much.

See, if I were killed and she... Oh, you
mustn't say that. It's bad luck.

Say a prayer, quickly.

Will you say one for me?

We shall need all our prayers.

Now the end is coming.

The end?

The end of the war.

And the end of our world, Scarlet.

Ashley, you don't think the Yankees are
beating them?

Oh, Scarlet, my men are barefooted now.

And the snow in Virginia is deep.

When I see them, I see the Yankees
coming and coming, always more and more.

When the end does come, I shall be far
away.

It'll be a comfort to me to know that
she has you.

You will promise, won't you?

Is that all, Ashley?

All except goodbye.

Oh, Ashley, I can't let you go. You must
be brave. No, no. You must.

How else can I bear going?

Oh, Scarlett, you're so fine and strong
and beautiful.

Not just your sweet face, my dear.

I've always loved you. I've never loved
anyone else.

I only married Charles just to hurt you.

Ashley, tell me you love me.

I'll live on it the rest of my life.

And there's a place back home where a
wild plum tree... Comes to flower in the

springtime.

Down by the creek, you know.

Yes, I know, I know.

When we were little, my brother Jeff and
I used to... I told you about my

brother Jeff, didn't I, ma 'am?

I know I did.

He... We don't know where Jeff is now,
ma 'am.

Since Bull Run, we haven't heard
anything.

Please, we must have your temperature
now.

Just take this in your mouth and not
talk anymore.

Not just now.

Melanie, I'm so tired. I've got to go
home.

Aren't you tired, Melanie?

No, I'm not tired, Scarlett.

This might be Ashley.

Had only strangers here to comfort him.

No, I'm not tired, Scarlett.

They could all be.

Ashley.

I've been sitting by this curb one solid
hour waiting to speak to you, Ms.

Wilkes. Go on, you trash.

Don't you be pestering these ladies.
Don't talk to them, Allie.

It's all right, Scarlett. Who are you?

My name's Belle Watland, but that don't
matter.

I expect you think I got no business
here.

Hadn't you best tell me what you want to
see me about?

First time I come here, I says, Belle,
you're a nurse.

The ladies didn't want my kind of
nursing.

Well, they was more than likely right.

Then I tried giving them money.

My money wasn't good enough for him
either.

You old pea hens.

I know a gentleman who says you're a
human being.

If you are, which they ain't, you'll
take my money for the hospital. What are

you doing here?

Haven't you been told twice already?

This time I'm conversing with Miss
Wilkes. You might as well take my money,

Wilkes. It's good money, even if it is
mine.

I'm sure you're very generous.

No, I'm not. I'm a confederate like
everybody else, that's all.

Of course you are.

Some folks here wouldn't feel that way.

But maybe they ain't as good Christians
as you.

Look, Miss Meade, it's a great deal of
money.

Ten, twenty, thirty, fifty.

And it's not our paper money, it's gold.

Let me see that handkerchief.

R .B.

And she's driving away in Rhett Butler's
carriage.

Oh, if I just wasn't a lady, what
wouldn't I tell that varmint?

He maketh me to lie down in green
pastures.

He... He restoreth my soul.

He leadeth me in the paths of
righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of
the shadow of death, I will fear no

evil, for thou art with me. Thy rod and
thy staff, they comfort me.

The Yankees!

The Yankees? Oh, Dr. Meade, they're...

They're getting closer.

They'll never get into Atlanta.

They'll never get through Old Big Leg
Wood. You'll be safe in the hospital.

You'll leave the project. Give me
something for the pain.

Give me something for the pain.

Sorry, son. We haven't got anything to
give you.

These animudes is driving me crazy.

What luck. I got my jack.

Give me an ace, and I'll start another
war.

Now, did the moon.

I haven't seen my family in three days.

I'm going home for half an hour.

Orderly, give me a lift.

You can free this bed.

Mrs. Scarlett.

Why, Frank Kennedy.

Mrs. Suella.

Is she well?

When did they bring you in, Frank?

You all right? Are you bad hurt?

But, Mrs. Suella, is she... Oh, she's
all right, Frank. Dr.

Wilson needs you in the operating room,
Miss Hamilton. He's going to take off

that leg. Better hurry.

I'll be back.

I'm so glad to see you. Tell me about
Tara. About my mother. She didn't write

me. She gone got sick, Miss Scarlet.
Sick?

Just a little bit sick. That's all, Miss
Scarlet. Your pa, he just wowed when

they wouldn't let him fight on account
of his broken knee. And he had fits when

they took all us freelance to dig the
ditch for the white soldiers to hide in.

But your ma said the Confederates needs
it. So we's going to dig for the South.

Sam, was there a doctor?

Sorry, ma 'am. We've got to march.
Goodbye, Miss Scarlet. Don't worry.

stop them Yankees. Goodbye, Big Sam.
Goodbye, boys. If any of you get sick or

hurt, let me know.

Bye, Miss Scarlet. Bye.

Bye. Bye.

pretty sight, isn't it?

Oh, whoa.

That's just another General Sherman's
calling card.

You'll be paying us a visit soon. I've
got to get out of here. I've got to get

out of here before the Yankees come.

Leave your work at the hospital?

Have you had enough of death and lice
and men chopped up?

Well, I suppose you weren't meant for
sick men, Scarlett. Don't talk to me

that, Red. I'm so scared. I wish I could
get out of here.

Let's get out of here together.

Are you staying here, letting the South
come down around your ears?

Too many nice places to go and visit.

Mexico, London, Paris.

With you?

Yes, ma 'am.

With a man who understands you and
admires you for just what you are.

I figure we belong together, being the
same sort.

I've been waiting for you to grow up and
get that sad -eyed Ashley Wilkes out of

your heart.

Well, I hear Mrs. Wilkes is going to
have a baby in another month or so.

It'll be hard loving a man with a wife
and baby clinging to him.

Whoa!

Well, here we are.

Are you going with me, or are you
getting out?

I hate and despise you, Red Butler. And
I'll hate and despise you till I die.

Oh, no, you won't, Scarlet. Not that
long.

What is this?

You ain't planning on running away.

Don't you dare try to stop me. I'm never
going back to that hospital. I've had

enough of smelling death and rot and
death.

I'm going home. I want my mother. My
mother needs me.

You've got to listen to me. You must
stay here.

Without a chaperone, Dr. Meade, it
simply isn't done. Good heavens, woman,

is war, not a garden party.

Scarlett, you've got to stay. Melanie
needs you. Oh, bother, Melanie. She's

already. She shouldn't even be having a
baby. She may have a difficult time. Why

can't we? Can't we take her along?

Would you want him to take that chance?
Would you want him to be jaunched over

rough roads and have the baby ahead of
time in a buggy? It isn't my baby. You

take care of it. Scarlet, we haven't
enough doctors, much less nurses, to

after a sick woman.

You've got to stay for Melanie.

What for?

I don't know anything about babies being
born.

I know.

I know. I know how to do it. I've done
it lots and lots.

Let me, doctor. Let me. I can do
everything.

Good. Then I rely on you to help us.

Yes, doctor.

Ashley's fighting in the field, fighting
for the cause.

He may never come back. He may die.

Scarlet, we owe him a well -born child.

Ashley. If you're coming, Scarlet,
hurry!

I promised Ashley.

Something. Then you'll stay?

Good. Go along, Miss Pitypat.

Scarlet's staying.

Go on, Uncle Peter.

Oh, I don't know what to do.

It's like the end of the...

I hate you. I hate you. I hate you,
baby.

If only I hadn't promised Ashley.

If only I hadn't promised...

I'm afraid so, ma 'am. The army's
pulling out. Pulling out of Atlanta,

us to the Yankees? Not leaving, ma 'am.

Evacuating. We've got to before Sherman
cuts the McDonough Road to the south and

catches the lot of it. It can't be true.
It can't be true.

What'll I do?

Better refugee south right quick, ma
'am. If you'll excuse me, ma 'am.

Come here, Percy.

Go pack my things and Miss Mel and his
two. We're going to tower right away.

The Yankees are coming.

that you bother, Scarlet.

It began at daybreak.

But... The Yankees are coming.

Poor Scarlet.

You'd be at terror now with your mother,
wouldn't you?

If it weren't for me.

Poor Scarlet, darling.

You've been so good to me.

No sister could have been sweeter.

I've been lying here thinking, if I
should die, will you take my

baby?

Oh,

I'm fiddly -dee, Mellie.

Aren't things bad enough without you
talking about dying?

I'll send for Dr. Meade right away.

Not yet, Scarlett.

I couldn't let Dr. Meade sit here for
hours while all those poor, manly,

boys... Princess!

Go get Dr. Mead. Run, quick!

Don't stand there like a scared goat.
Run!

Hurry, hurry!

I'll tell you south I will. I swear I
will.

Where's that Percy?

This room's like an oven already.

Oh, it seems like the doctor will never
come.

I don't take a strap to that prissy.

Oh, Mellie.

You know what I heard about Maybell
Meriwether?

You remember that funny -looking ball of
hers?

The one with the uniform like ladies'
red -fannel underdrawers?

You don't have to keep on talking for my
sake, Charlotte.

I know how worried you are.

Oh, Millie, I'll just go and fetch

you some cooler water.

You're as slow as molasses in January.
And where's Dr. Mead?

Why didn't you go after him?

Miss Garland, I was scared to go down
there at the car shed.

There's folks dying down there, and I'm
scared of dead folks.

Oh,

you go sit by Miss Mellie.

Watch yourself.

I don't understand what you're doing.

I need every pair of hands.

Now, come, child, wake up. We've got
work to do.

But Mel is having a baby.

You've got to come with me.

Are you crazy? I can't leave these men
for a baby. They're dying, hundreds of

them. Get some woman to help you. But
there isn't anybody.

Dr. Meade, she might die.

Die? Look at them, bleeding to death in
front of my eyes.

No chloroform, no bandages, nothing.

Nothing to ease their pain.

Now run along and don't bother me.

Oh, don't worry, child.

There's nothing to bring in a baby.

Now, bring the stretchers in here.

Up to me?

Yeah. I'm coming.

there's nobody to come chrissy you've
got to manage without the doctor i'll

you oh what is it we've got to have a
doctor

i don't know nothing about birth and
babies what do you mean

Give me the ball of twine and all the
keen tiles you can find and the

Don't come telling me you can't find
them. Go get them and get them quick.

Scarlett.

Scarlett.

Scarlett. Coming, Mellie.

Coming.

Go, Scarlett, before the Yankees get
here.

No, I won't leave you.

Don't be a goose, Mellie. Hold on to me.
Hold on to me.

Don't try to be brave, Mellie. Yell all
you want and there's nobody to hear.

us about.

horse and carriage.

You better come upstairs and I'll see
what I can do.

Oh, no, Captain Butler.

My ma would wear me out with a cornstalk
if I was to go into Miss Watling.

Any of you beauties know where I can
steal a horse for a good cause?

Whoa, Mars Robert.

Good evening. Nice weather we're having.
Prissy tells me you're planning on

taking... If you make any jokes now,
I'll kill you! Oh, don't tell me you're

frightened. I'm scared to death. And if
you had the sense of a goat, you'd be

scared, too.

Oh, I can't... No, not yet. That's
what's left of our army blowing up the

ammunition so the Yankees won't get it.
We've got to get out of here.

At your service, madam. Just where were
you figuring on going?

Home, to Tara. Tara?

Don't you know that they've been
fighting all day around there? Do you

can parade right through the Yankee army
with a sick woman, a baby, and a simple

-minded donkey?

Or do you intend leaving them behind?

They're going with me, and I'm going
home, and you can't stop me. Little

don't you know it's dangerous jouncing
Mrs. Wilkes over miles of open country?

I want my mother.

I want to go home to Tara.

Tara's probably been burned to the
ground. The woods are full of stragglers

both armies. The only thing they'll do
is take the horse away from you.

And even though it isn't much of an
animal, I did have a lot of trouble

it. I'm going home.

I guess anybody who did what you've done
today can take care of Sherman.

You know, stop crying.

I'll blow your nose like a good little
girl.

Mellie. Mellie. Mrs. Wilkes.

We're taking you to Tara.

It's the only way, Mellie.

No. Joan will burn the house over our
heads if we stay.

It's all right, Mellie. It's all right.

My baby.

My baby.

Have you the strength to put your arms
around my neck? I think so.

What is it? What does she want?

Ashley's picture of Charles' sword. She
wants us to bring them. Get them.

What's that?

Gallant lads must have set fire to the
warehouse near the depot.

Enough ammunition to box cars down there
to blow us a terror.

We'll have to hurry if we're going to
get across some tracks.

You're not going that way.

I have to. John O 'Rose is the only one
the Yankees haven't cut yet.

Oh, wait, I forgot to lock the front
door.

What are you laughing at? At you,
locking the Yankees up.

Dear, I wish they'd hurry.

Wouldn't be in such a hurry to see them
go if I were you, my dear.

With them goes the last semblance of law
and order.

Scavengers aren't wasting any time.

Better get out of here fast.

There's a horse!

Not much for the Yankees to take.

We'll have to make a dash for it before
the fire reaches that ammunition.

like better if you don't see anything.

Take a good look, my dear.

It's a historic moment. You can tell
your grandchildren how you watched the

South disappear one night.

Oh.

They were going to lick the Yankees in a
month.

Poor gallant fools.

They made me sick of them, getting us
all into this swaggering and boasting.

That's the way I felt once about their
swaggering and boasting.

Oh, Red, I'm so glad you aren't with the
army. You can be proud now.

Proud that you've been smarter than all
of us.

I'm not so proud.

Why did you stop?

This is the turn to terror. Let the
horse breathe a bit.

Miss Wilkes.

Miss Melligan's saying it way back,
Captain Butler.

She's probably better off. She couldn't
stand the pain as you were conscious.

Scarlet, are you still determined to do
this crazy thing? Oh, yes, yes. I know

we can get through, Red. I'm sure we
can. Not we, my dear. You.

I'm leaving you here.

Your what?

Red, where are you going?

I'm going, my dear, to join the army.

You're joking. I could kill you for
scaring me so. I'm very serious,

I'm going to join up with our brave lads
in grave.

But they're running away.

Oh, no.

They'll turn and make a last stand if I
know anything about them.

And when they do, I'll be with them. I'm
a little late, but better late than

never. Red, you must be joking.

Selfish to the end, aren't you?

Thinking only of your own precious hide
with never a thought for the noble

cause. Red, how could you do this to me?
And why should you go now that after

it's all over and I need you? Why? Why?

Why? Maybe it's because I've always had
a weakness for lost causes once they're

really lost.

Or maybe... Maybe I'm ashamed of myself.

Who knows?

You should die of shame to leave me here
alone and helpless.

You helpless?

Heaven help the Yankees if they capture
you.

Now, climb down here. I want to say
goodbye.

No.

Climb down.

You can't leave me, please.

I'll never forgive you.

I'm not asking you to forgive me.

I'll never understand or forgive myself.

And if a bullet gets me, so help me I'll
laugh at myself for being an idiot.

There's one thing I do know.

And that is that I love you, Scarlett.

In spite of you and me and the whole
silly world going to pieces around us, I

love you.

Because we're alike.

Bad lots, both of us.

Selfish and shrewd.

But able to look things in the eyes and
call them by their right name.

Don't hold me like that.

Scarlet, look at me.

I love you more than I've ever loved any
woman.

And I've waited longer for you than I've
ever waited for any woman.

Let me alone.

There's a soldier in the south who loves
you, Scarlet.

Wants to feel your arms around him.
Wants to carry the memory of your kisses

into battle with him.

Never mind about loving me.

You're a woman sending a soldier to his
death with a beautiful memory.

Scarlet.

He was right. You... You aren't a
gentleman.

A minor point at such a moment.

Here.

If anyone lays a hand on that nag, shoot
him. But don't make a mistake and shoot

the nag.

Oh, go on.

I want you to go.

I hope a cannonball lands. Slap on you.
I hope you're blown into a million

pieces. Never mind the rest. I follow
your general idea.

And when I'm dead, on the order of my
country, I hope your conscience hurts

Goodbye, Scarlet.

Come on, you.

We're going home.

Oh, babe.

Oh.

Don't worry, Mellie.

Mother will take care of him when we get
home.

Miss Scarlet, I was powerful hungry.

We've got to have something to eat. Oh,
hush up.

We're nearly at 12.

Actually, I'm glad you're not here to
see this.

We don't know what we will find at home.

Oh, darling.

Oh, darling.

Oh, darling.

Oh, darling. Oh, darling. Oh, darling.
Oh, darling.

Oh, darling.

Oh, darling. Oh,

darling.

Miss Sue Ellen and Miss Corrine, they
were sick with the typhoid.

They had it bad, but they're doing all
right now.

Just weak like a little kitten.

Where's Mother?

Well, uh, Miss Ellen, she went down to
nurse that emery slattery, that white

trash, and she took down with it, too.

And last night she... Father?

Miss Scarlett, honey.

If there's anything I can do, Miss
Scarlett.

What did you do with Miss Mellie?

Don't you worry your pretty head about
Miss Mellie, child.

I done slapped her in bed already, along
with the baby.

You better put that cow I brought into
the barn, Pork.

There ain't no barn no more, Miss
Scarlett.

The Yankees done burned it for firewood.
They used the house for the

headquarters, Miss Scarlett. They camped
all around the place.

Yankees in terror?

Yes, sir. And they stole almost
everything they didn't burn.

All the clothes.

and all the rug, and even Miss Ellen's
rosary.

What's darling Paul getting, honey, to
eat? They ain't nothing to eat, honey.

They took it all.

All the chickens, everything?

They took them the first thing.

And what did they need? They carried it
all across their saddles.

Don't tell me any more about what they
did.

What's this, Paul?

Whiskey?

Yes, daughter.

Katie Scarlet, that's enough.

You're not knowing spirits. You'll make
yourself tipsy.

I hope it makes me drunk.

I'd like to be drunk.

Oh, Paul.

What are those papers?

Bonds.

They're all we've saved.

All we have left.

Bonds.

But what kind of bonds, Pa?

My Confederate bonds, of course,
daughter.

Confederate bonds.

What good are they to anybody?

I'll not have you talking like that,
Katie Scarlet.

Oh, Pa, what are we going to do with no
money and nothing to eat?

We must ask your mother.

That's it.

We must ask Mrs. O 'Hara.

What's the matter? Yes.

Mrs. O 'Hara will know what's to be
done.

Now, don't be bothering me.

Go out for a ride.

I'm busy.

Oh, Pa, don't worry about anything.

Here is Scarlet's home.

You needn't worry.

Miss Scarlet?

What are we going to do with nothing to
feed those sick folks and that child?

I don't know, Manny.

I don't know.

We ain't got nothing but radishes in the
garden.

Miss Scarlet, Miss Sue Ellen, and Miss
Kareem, there's fussing to be sponged

off.

Why the other seven, Manny? Miss
Scarlet, there's only just me and Polk

The others went off to the war and run
away.

these house workers.

God is my witness.

As God is my witness, they're not going
to lick me.

I'm going to live through this, and when
it's all over, I'll never be hungry

again. No, nor any of my folks.

If I have to lie, steal, cheat, or kill,
as God is my witness, I'll never be

hungry again.

Thank you.

My back's near bronch.

Look at my hands.

Mother said you could always tell a lady
by her hands.

I guess things like hands and ladies
don't matter so much anymore.

You rest, Sue. You're not well yet. And
I can pick cotton for both of us.

God, it's hateful.

Making us work in the fields like... Who
bad about that?

Now get back to work. I can't do
everything in terror all by myself.

What do I care about terror? I hate
terror.

Don't you ever dare say you hate terror
again.

Same as hating porn more.

Katie Scarlet, there's something I must
speak to you about.

Yes, Paul, what is it? I've been talking
to Prissy and Mammy, and I don't like

the way you're treating them. You must
be firm with inferiors, but you must be

gentle with them, especially darkies.
Yes, Paul, I know.

But I'm not asking to do anything I'm
not doing myself.

Nevertheless, Katie Scarlet, I don't
like it. I shall speak to Mrs. O 'Hara

about it.

I didn't think of it that way.

Who's there? All around you.

You all alone, little lady?

You ain't very friendly, are you?

You got anything else besides these ear
bobs?

You Yankees have been here before.

Very little spitfire, ain't you?

What do you got hidden in your hand?

you killed him.

I'm glad you killed him.

Don't be scared, chickens. Your big
sister was trying to clean her revolver

it went off and nearly scared her to
death.

Have we got enough to frighten us?

Tell Katie Scarlet she must be more
careful.

What a cool lie you are, Mellie.

You ought to get him out of here,
Scarlett, and bury him. If the Yankees

him here, they'll... I didn't see anyone
else. I think he must be a deserter.

Even so, he's got to hide him. They
might hear about it, and then they'd...

they'd come and get you.

I could bury him in the arbor where the
ground is sore.

But how do I get him out of here?

Well, take him there. I could drag him.
You couldn't drag a cat.

Scarlet. Do you think it would be
dishonest if we went through some

I'm ashamed I didn't think of that
myself.

You take the haversack. I'll search the
pocket.

You look, huh?

I'm feeling a little weak.

Mary, I think it's full of money.

Oh, Mary, look.

Just look.

Don't stop to count it. Now we haven't
got time.

Do you realize it means we have
something to eat?

Look in its other pockets.

Hurry, hurry.

We've got to get him out of here. Here.

He bleeds across the yard. We can't hide
it.

Give me a night, Donnelly.

I want it right ahead.

Oh, don't be silly. I won't look at you.
If I had on a petticoat or pantalettes,

I'd use them.

Thank heavens I'm not that modest.

Now go back to bed. You'll be dead if
you don't.

I'll clean up the mess when I've buried
him.

No, I'll clean it up.

Well, I guess I've done murder.

I won't think about that now.

I'll think about that tomorrow.

It's all over. It's all over.

It's all over the wall.

Please surrender.

It's not possible. Why did we ever
fight?

Ashley, we're coming home.

Yes, Ashley, we're coming home.

We'll plant more cotton.

Cotton ought to go sky high next year.

So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to
the sea while we were marching through

Georgia.

Get out of the road, Revel.

Get out of the way.

Have you room in your carriage for a
dying man? I got no room for any

scum alive or dead.

Get out of the way.

I reckon he'd rather try and walk it at
that.

Get up.

Don't you break my record.

Act like they won the war.

Now you come on and give me them pants,
Mr. Kennedy.

and put these britches in the violent
part.

The whole Confederate Army's got the
same troubles, crawling clothes and

disinterests.

I think it's humiliating the way you're
treating Mr. Kennedy. You'd be a sight

more humiliated if Mr. Kennedy's lice
gets on you.

Oh, come on, Bo.

We must leave this gentleman alone
because he's tired and he's hungry.

I don't mind, ma 'am. Good to see you
youngster again.

Nice little fella.

Another two years of war and we could
have had him with us in Cobb's Legion.

Were you in Cobb's Legion?

Yes, ma 'am.

Why, then, you must know my husband,
Major Will. Oh, yes, ma 'am. He was

captured at Spotsylvania, I think.

Captured?

Oh, thank heaven, then he isn't... Oh,
my poor Ashley in a Yankee prison.

Melanie?

Yes, darling, I'm coming. Come along,
Bo.

I'll watch out for him, ma 'am. We're
good friends.

Oh. Thank you.

Dear Ashley, day and night, just so we
can have enough food to keep body and

soul together, and you give it all away
to those starving scarecrows.

I'd as soon have a plague of locusts
around the place.

Oh, don't scold me, Scarlet, please.

I've just heard that Ashley will take
him prisoner.

For your prison? Yes.

And maybe, if he's alive and well, he's
on some northern road right now.

And maybe some northern woman is giving
him a share of her dinner.

and helping my beloved to come back home
to me.

I hope so, Millie. Miss Scarlett.

Miss Scarlett, I want to take up
something with your pa, but he doesn't

to... Perhaps I can help you. I'm head
of the house now.

Well, I... I... Miss Scarlett, I was
aiming to ask for Sue Ellen.

Do you mean to tell me, Frank, Andy, you
haven't asked for her after all these

years she's been counting on you? Well,
I... The truth is, I'm so much older

than she is, and, well, now I haven't a
cent to my name.

Who has nowadays?

Miss Scarlett, if true love carries any
weight with you, you can be sure your

sister will be rich in that.

I'd go out somewhere and get myself a
little business, if we're engaged.

As soon as I get on my feet again, we
can... All right, Frank.

I'm sure I can speak for Paul. You go
ask her now.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you, Miss Scarlett.

Oh, oh.

Excuse me now.

Excuse me.

Scarlett, what seems to be the trouble
with Mr. Kennedy?

More trouble than he guesses.

He's finally asked for Sue Ellen's hand.

Oh, I'm so glad.

With the pity he can't marry her now, at
least be one less mouth to feed.

Oh, another one.

Hope this one isn't hungry.

He'll be hungry.

I'll tell Percy to get an extra plate.

Miss Scarlet.

Don't spoil it, Miss Scarlet. Turn me
loose, you fool. Turn me loose.

He's her husband, Harry.

Miss Scarlet, ma 'am. What time you got
back?

Did you get the horse shod? Yes, ma 'am.
He shod all right. Miss Scarlet, ma

'am. Fine thing when horse can get shoes
and humans can't. Here, stir this soap.

Yes, ma 'am.

Miss Scarlet, ma 'am, I gotta know how
much money have you got left in gold?

Ten dollars.

Why?

That won't be enough.

What in heaven's name are you talking
about?

Well, Miss Scarlet, I see that old no
-count white trash, Wilkerson, that used

to be Mr.

Gerald's overseer here.

He's a regular Yankee now, and he was
making a brag.

that his copy bag of friends done run
the taxes way up sky high on tariff. How

much more we got to pay?

I hear the tax man say $300.

$300?

Oh, my, just as well be $3 million.

But we got to raise it, that's all.

Yes, and how?

I'll go ask Mr. Ashley.

Oh, he ain't got no $300, Miss Scarlet.
Well, I can ask him if I want to, can't

I?

Asking ain't getting.

Ashley.

They say Abe Lincoln got his start
splitting rails.

Just think what heights I may climb to
once I get the knack. Ashley.

The Yankees want $300 more in taxes.

What shall we do?

Ashley, what's to become of us?

What do you think becomes of people when
that civilization breaks up?

Those who have brains and courage come
through all right.

Those that haven't are winnowed out. For
heaven's sake, Ashley Wilkes, don't

stand there talking nonsense at me when
it's us who are being winnowed out.

You're right, Scarlet.

Here I am talking tommy rot about
civilization while your terror's in

You come to me for help and I've no help
to give you.

Oh, Scarlet, I'm a coward.

You, Ashley, a coward?

What are you afraid of?

Oh, mostly of life becoming too real for
me, I suppose.

Not that I mind splitting rails, but I
do mind very much losing the beauty of

that life I love.

If the war hadn't come, I'd have spent
my life happily buried at Twelve Oaks.

But the war did come.

I saw my boyhood friends blown to bits.

I saw men crumple up in agony when I
shot them.

And now I find myself in a world which
for me is worse than death.

A world in which there is no place for
me.

Oh, I can never make you understand
because you don't know the meaning of

You never mind facing reality.

And you never want to escape from them
as I do.

Oh, Ashley, you're wrong.

I do want to escape, too.

I'm so very tired of it all.

I've struggled for food and for money.

I've weeded and hoed and picked cotton
until I can't stand it another minute.

I tell you, Ashley, this house is dead.
It's dead.

The Yankees and the Corbyn backers have
got it, and there's nothing left for us.

Well, let's run away.

We go to Mexico.

They want officers in the Mexican army.
We could be so happy there.

Ashley, I'd work for you. I'd do
anything for you. You know you don't

Melanie. You told me you loved me that
day at Twelve Oaks. And anyway, Melanie

can't... Well, Dr. Mead told me she
couldn't ever have any more children

could give you. Can't we ever forget
that day at Twelve Oaks?

Do you think I could ever forget it?
Have you forgotten it? Can you honestly

you don't love me?

No, I... I don't love you. It's a lie.

Well, even if it is a lie, do you think
I'd go off and leave Melanie and the

baby? Break Melanie's heart? Scarlet,
are you mad? You couldn't leave your

father and the girls? I couldn't leave
them. I'm sick of them. I'm tired of

them. Yes, you're sick and tired. That's
why you're talking this way.

You've carried the load for all of us.

But from now on, I'm going to be more
help to you. I promise.

There's only one way you can help me.

Take me away.

There's nothing to keep us here.

Nothing.

Nothing except honor.

Please, dear, you mustn't cry.

Please, my brave dear, you mustn't cry.

You do love me, you do love me.

Don't, don't.

You love me, you love me. We won't do
this, I tell you, we won't do it.

If it won't happen again, I'm going to
take Melanie and the baby and go.

Say it, you love me.

All right, I'll say it.

I love your courage and your
stubbornness.

I love them so much that a moment ago I
could have forgotten the best wife a man

ever had.

But Scarlett, I'm not going to forget
her.

There's nothing left for me.

Nothing to fight for.

Something to live for.

Yes, there is something.

Something you love better than me.

Though you may not know it.

Anna.

Yes, I... still have this.

You needn't go.

I won't have you all starved simply
because I threw myself at your head.

It won't happen again.

Why, it's Emmy Slattery. Yes, well, it's
me.

Stop!

You haven't forgotten your old overseer,
have you?

Huh?

Well, Emmy's Mrs. Wilkerson now.

Get off those steps, you trashy wench.
Get off this land.

You can't speak that way to my wife.
What?

High time you made her your wife.

Who baptized your other brats after you
killed my mother?

We came out here to pay a call.

A friendly call and talk a little
business with old friends. Friends?

When are we ever friends with the likes
of you?

Still high and mighty, ain't you?

Well, I know all about you.

I know your father's turned idiot.

You can't pay your taxes.

And I come out here to offer to buy the
place from you, to make your right good

offer.

Emmy's had a hankering to live here. Get
off this page, you dirty Yankee.

Bog truck and high -flying Irish will
find out who's running things around

when you get sold out for taxes.

I'll buy this place, log, stock, and
barrel, and I'll live in it. But I'll

for the sheriff's sale.

That's all of tar you'll ever get.

You'll be sorry for that.

Lodge of Miss Garland. That's Mr.

Gerald's watch.

You take it. It's for you.

Pa would want you to have it.

You ain't got no business parting from
this watch now, Miss Garland. You needs

all your valuables to sell for that tax
money.

You think I'd sell Pa's watch?

And don't cry.

Stand everybody's tears but yours.

You've been brave so long, Miss Scarlet.
You just got to go on being brave.

Think about your pa like he used to be.

I can't think about pa.

Can't think of anything but that $300.

Ain't no good thinking about that, Miss
Scarlet. Ain't nobody got that much

money.

Nobody but Yankees and Scalloways got
that much money now.

Where at?

Who that?

A Yankee?

Oh, Mammy, I'm so thin and pale, and I
haven't any clothes.

Scoot up the attic, Mammy, and get down
Maura's old box of dress patterns.

What you up to with Miss Ellen's poor
tears?

You're going to make me a new dress. Not
with Miss Ellen's poor tears. Not while

I've got dress on my body. Great boy!

I'm in my poor head now.

I'm going to Atlanta for that $300, and
I've got to go looking like a queen.

Who's going to Atlanta with you? I'm
going alone.

That's what you think. I was going to
Atlanta with you, with you in that new

dress.

Now, maybe darling.

No use to try to sweet -talk me, Miss
Scarlet. I've known you ever since I put

the first pair of diapers on you. I said
I was going to Atlanta with you, and

while I is.

Kings and trades, huh?

Oh, too good for me, Major.

You know, it's a pity we couldn't have
fought the war out in the poker game.

You'd have done better than General
Grant with far less effort.

What is it, Corporal? Sir, there's a
lady to see Captain Butler.

Says she's his sister.

Another sister?

This is a jail, not a harem, Captain
Butler.

No, Major. She ain't one of those.

This one's got her mammy with her.

She has.

I'd like to see this one, Major.

Without her mammy.

Hmm. Let's see. My losses for the
afternoon come to what?

Hmm.

340.

My debts do mount up, don't they, Major?

All right, Corporal. Show Captain
Butler's sister to his cell.

Thank you, Major.

Excuse me, gentlemen.

It's hard to be strict with a man who
loses money so pleasantly.

Ray!

Scarlet! My dear little sister.

It's all right, Corporal. My sister has
brought me no files or saws.

Can I really kiss you now? On the
forehead, like a good brother.

No, thanks.

I'll wait and hope for better things.

Oh, Red, I was so distressed when I
heard you were in jail. I simply

sleep for thinking.

It's not true they're going to hang you.

Would you be sorry?

Oh, Red.

Well, don't worry. Yet.

The Yankees have trumped up some charge
against me, but what they're really

after is my money. They seem to think I
made off with a Confederate treasury.

Well, what, did you?

Oh, what a leading question.

Well, let's just talk about sordid
things like money.

How good of you to come and see me. And
how pretty you look.

Oh, Red, how you do run on teasing a
country girl like me. Thank heavens

not in rags. I'm tired of seeing women
in rags. Turn around.

Oh, you look good enough to eat.

And prosperous, too.

Thank you. I've been doing very well.

Everybody's doing well at Tara, only...

I got so bored, I just thought I'd treat
myself to a visit to town.

You're a heartless creature, but that's
part of your charm.

You know, you've got more charm than the
law allows.

Now, I didn't come here to talk
silliness about me with.

I came because I was so miserable that I
thought of you in trouble.

Oh, I know I was mad at you the night
you left me on the road to Paris, and I

still haven't forgiven you. Oh, Scarlet,
don't say that.

Well, I must admit I might not be alive
now, only for you.

And when I think of myself with
everything I could possibly hope for and

not a care in... the world, and you here
in this horrid jail.

And not even a human jail, Red, a horse
jail.

Oh, listen to me trying to make jokes,
but I really want to cry.

In a minute, I shall cry.

Can it be possible that... What be
possible, Red?

That you've grown a woman's heart, a
real woman's heart.

I have, Red. I know I have.

You know, it's worth being in jail just
to hear you say that.

It's well worth it.

You can drop the moonlight in Magnolia,
Scarlet.

So things have been going well at Tara,
have they?

Yes. What have you been doing with your
hands?

Oh, just as I went riding last week
without my gloves. These don't belong to

lady. You've been working with them like
a field hand.

Why did you lie to me, and what are you
really up to? Now, Reg. In another

minute, I'd almost believe you cared
something.

But I do care. Suppose we get down to
the truth.

You want something from me, and you want
it badly enough to put on quite a show

in your velvas.

What is it?

Money?

I want $300 to pay the taxes on Tara.

Oh, Red, I did lie to you when I said
everything was all right.

Things are just as bad as they possibly
could be. And you've got millions, Red.

What collateral are you offering?

Oh, my ear bobs. Not interested.

Mortgage on Tara.

What would I do with a farm?

You wouldn't lose. I'd pay you back out
of next year's cotton. Not good enough.

Maybe nothing better?

You once said you loved me.

If you still love me, Red... You haven't
forgotten I'm not a married man.

No, I haven't forgotten.

You're not worth $300.

You'll never mean anything but misery to
any man.

Go on, insult me. I don't care what you
say. Only give me the money.

I won't let Tara go. I can't let her go
while there's a breath left in my body.

Oh, Rhett, won't you please give me the
money?

I couldn't give you the money if I
wanted to.

My funds are in Liverpool, not in
Atlanta.

If I tried drawing a draft, the Yankees
would be on me like a duck on a June

bug.

So you see, my dear, you've abased
yourself to no purpose.

Oh!

Oh! No!

Here, here. Stop it.

Yankees to see you last.

Take your hands off me, you skunk!

You knew what I was going to say before
I started.

You knew you wouldn't lend me the money,
and yet you let me go on.

I enjoyed hearing what you had to say.

Cheer up.

You can come to my hanging, and I'll
remember you in my will. I'll come to

hanging. The only thing I'm afraid of is
they won't hang you in time to pay the

taxes on tariff.

Tell him Bill Watley.

Where have you been lately?

Thought you deserted, Captain Butler.

Oh, I keep myself occupied. Help me up.

Who dat?

I ain't never seen hair that color
before in my life.

Does you know a dyed -haired woman?

She knew that one.

She'd get my money for me.

No matter what they done to you in that
jail, if they didn't do no more...

Fresh and green.

Hey,

what are you doing tonight?

Today? That's one of those Georgia
pieces.

Nothing like that in Ohio.

You know what we're going to do?

What? We're going to give every last one
of you 40 acres and a mule.

And a mule?

40 acres and a mule.

Gee! Because we're your friends.

And you're going to become voters.

And you're going to vote like your
friends do.

What's your hurry, sister?

Well, come over this here time.

Yeah, Mrs.

Mobley. Same as this. Come over, all of
you.

Surely it can't be Miss Scott. Why,
Frank Kennedy. And Mammy.

It sure is good to see home, folks.

I didn't know you were in Atlanta.

I didn't know you were.

Didn't Miss Sue Ellen tell you about my
store?

Did she? I don't remember. Have you a
store?

Ben? Won't you come in and look around a
bit?

I don't suppose it looks like much to a
lady, but... I can't help being proud of

it.

You're not making money.

Well, I can't complain.

In fact, I'm mighty encouraged.

Folks tell me I'm just a born merchant.

It won't be long now before Miss Swellen
and I can marry.

Oh, you're doing as well as all that.

Yes, I am, Miss Scarlet.

I'm no millionaire yet, but I've cleared
$1 ,000 already.

And lumber, too.

Well, that's only a sideline.

A sideline, Frank.

With all the good Georgia pine around
Atlanta and all this building going on?

Well, all that takes money, Miss
Scarlett, and I've got to be thinking

buying a home.

Well, what would you want a home for?

For Miss Swell and me to set up
housekeeping.

Oh, here in Atlanta.

You'd want to bring it to Atlanta,
wouldn't you?

There wouldn't be much help in that for
Tara.

I don't rightly know what you mean, Miss
Scarlett.

I don't mean a thing.

Frank, how would you like to drive me
out to my Aunt Pitty's?

Oh, nothing would give me more pleasure,
Miss Scarlet.

I think you'd better stay to suffer,
too. I'm sure Aunt Fiddy will be

and I know I'd like a good long visit
with you. Oh, you act on me just like a

tonic, Miss Scarlet.

And will you tell me all the news?

All the news of Miss Sue Ellen?

What's the matter, Miss Scarlet?

Miss Sue Ellen's not ill, is she?

Oh, no, no.

I thought surely she'd written you. I
guess she was ashamed to write you. She

should be ashamed.

Oh, how awful to have such a mean
sister.

You must tell me, Miss Scarlet.

Don't leave me on tenterhooks.

Well, she's going to marry one of the
county boys next month.

She just got tired of waiting, was
afraid she'd be an old maid, and... Oh,

sorry to be the one to tell you.

Oh, it's cold, and I left my muff at
home. Would you mind if I put my hand in

your pocket?

It's all my fault.

I should have committed highway robbery
to get that tax money for you.

I couldn't let you do anything like
that.

Anyway, it's done now.

Yes, it's done now.

You wouldn't have let me do anything
dishonorable, yet you'd sell yourself in

marriage to a man you didn't love.

Well, at least you won't have to worry
about my helplessness anymore.

What do you mean?

I'm going to New York.

I've arranged to get a position in a
bank there.

But you can't do that.

I counted on you to help me start a
lumber business, Ashley.

And I counted on you. Oh, Scarlett, I
wouldn't be any good to you. I don't

anything about the lumber business.

You know as much as you do about
banking. And I'd give you half the

Ashley.

That's... Generous of you, Scarlett.

But it isn't that.

If I go to Atlanta and take help from
you again, I bury forever any hope of

standing alone.

Oh, is that all?

Well, you could gradually buy the
business, and then it would be your own,

and... No, Scarlett.

She wanted me to go to Atlanta.

To help me start my lumber business. He
won't lift a finger to help me.

How unshiverous of you.

Why, think, Ashley, think.

If it hadn't been for Scarlett, I'd have
died in Atlanta.

And maybe we wouldn't have had little
Bo.

And when I think of her picking cotton
and plowing just to keep food in our

mouths, I could just... Oh, my darling.

I'll go to Atlanta.

I can't fight you both.

Well,

there's your new millhounds, Mr.
Kennedy.

The pick of all the best jails in
Georgia.

You look pretty thin and weak to me,
Gallagher. Oh!

They're the best you can lease, ma 'am.

And if you'll just give Johnny Gallagher
a free hand, you'll get what you want

out of them.

All right.

You're the foreman.

All I ask is that you keep the mill
running and deliver my lumber when I

it. Johnny Gallagher's your man, miss.
But remember, no questions and no

interference. That's a box.

Start them in the morning, Gallagher.

Come on, get a move on. Come on, move on
there.

But, Scarlett, this isn't right, and you
know it.

It's bad enough for a woman to be in
business at all, but what... What are

complaining about?

You never would have owned a mill if I
hadn't taken things over.

But I didn't want the mill in the first
place, and we couldn't have bought it if

you hadn't pressed all of our friends
for the money they owed me.

Isn't that right, Ashley? What, are you
running a charitable institution?

Now go back to the store, Frank, and
then go home and take your medicine.

not looking very well. But, Sugar, don't
you think you'd better come home with

me? Great balls of fire. Don't bother me
anymore, and don't call me Sugar. All

right. All right.

Good night, Ashley.

My, my.

She can get mad quick in any woman I
ever saw.

Darling, I don't like to interfere, but
I do wish you'd let me hire three

darkies instead of using convicts.

I believe we could do better.

Darkies with their pay would break us.

Convicts are dirt cheap, and if we just
give Gallagher a free hand, he'll... A

free hand. You know what that means.
He'll starve them and whip them.

Didn't you see them? Some of them are
sick, underfed. Oh, Ashley, I do run on.

If I let you alone, you'll be giving
them chicken three times a day and

them to sleep with either down quilts.

Scarlet, I will not make money out of
the enforced labor and misery of others.

You weren't so particular about owning
slaves.

That was different. We didn't treat them
that way.

Besides, I'd have freed them all when
Father died if the war hadn't already

freed them.

Oh, I'm sorry, Ashley.

But have you forgotten what it's like
without money?

I found out that money is the most
important thing in the world.

And I don't intend ever to be without it
again.

I'm going to make money enough so the
Yankees can never take Tara away from

I'm going to make it the only way I know
how.

But we're not the only Southerners
who've suffered, Scarlett.

Look at all our friends.

They're keeping their honor and their
kindness, too. Yes, and they're

I haven't got any use for fools who
won't help themselves. Oh, I know what

they're saying about me, and I don't
care.

I'm going to make friends with the
Yankee Corbett Baggers, and I'm going to

them in their own game. And you're going
to beat them with me.

Mrs. Kennedy.

Good afternoon.

Business is certainly going, ain't it?
It certainly is.

Scarlett, you're doing business with the
same people who robbed us and tortured

us and left us to starve. Oh, that's
path, Mary. And I intend to make the

of things, even if they are Yankee
things.

And do you know, Dolly Mary, whether the
doctor me actually saw her peddling

lumber to those Yankees herself?

And that isn't all. I think it's
shocking what she's doing to my brother

She's even taken to driving her own
buggy.

My dear

Mrs. Kennedy.

My very dear Mrs. Kennedy.

I don't see how you have the gall to
face me. When I think you could have had

millions if you'd just waited a little
while.

Oh, how fickle is woman.

What is it you want?

and have important things to do. Would
you mind satisfying my curiosity on a

point which has bothered me for some
time?

Well, what is it? Be quick.

Tell me, Scarlet. Do you never shrink
from marrying men you don't love?

How did you ever get out of jail? Why
didn't they hang you? Oh, that. Not much

trouble. There's nothing much that money
won't buy.

I observe it's even bought you the
Honorable Mr. Wills.

Oh, you still hate Ashley Wills.

Do you know I believe you're jealous of
him?

You still think you're the belle of the
county, don't you?

That you're the cutest little trick in
shoe leather.

And that every man you meet is dying of
love for you. Let me by.

Don't be angry, Scarlett. Tell me, where
are you going?

Going out to the mill, if it's any of
your business. Through Shantytown alone?

Haven't you been told that it's
dangerous to drive alone through all

riffraff? Don't worry about me.

I can shoot straight.

I don't have to shoot too far.

What a woman.

Can you give me a quarter?

Let go of my horse.

Hold this horse.

Give me that job.

you hurt, Miss Scarlet?

Did that hurt you?

Don't you cry, Miss Scarlet.

Big Sam will get you out of this in a
jiffy.

Hoss make tracks.

You get to Tara just as quick as you can
and stay there.

I sure will.

I've had enough of them carpetbaggers.
Thank you, Mr. Frank.

Goodbye, Miss Scarlet. Goodbye, Sam, and
thank you.

Scarlet, change your dress and go over
to Miss Mellie's for the evening.

I've got to go to a political meeting.

A political meeting?

Can you go to a political meeting after
what I've been through this afternoon?

Oh, sugar.

You're more scared than hurt.

Nobody cares about me.

You all act as though we're nothing at
all.

The men talk, talk, talk about
protecting our women, and then after

happened to me this afternoon, Frank has
to go to a political meeting.

And if it won't pain you too much, India
Wilkes, I'd be much obliged if you'd

tell me why you're staring at me.

Has my face gone green or something?

It won't pain me.

What happened this afternoon was just
what you deserved.

And if there was any justice, you'd have
gotten worse. Oh, India, hush up. Oh,

let her talk, Melanie. She's always
hated me.

Ever since I took your brother Charles
away from her, though she's too much of

hypocrite to admit it.

Why, if she thought anybody'd take after
her, she'd walk down the street naked.

I do hate you.

You've done all you could to lower the
prestige of decent people.

And now you've endangered the lives of
our men because they've got to... India!

I don't think we'd better say any more,
or one of us will be saying too much.

What's going on around here that I don't
know about?

Somebody did eat Miss Dash.

Will you hand me the pistol, please,
Miss Meade?

Whoever it is, we know nothing.

Where have they gone?

Now, you've got to tell me, Mrs. Walsh,
his life or death.

Don't tell him anything.

He's a Yankee spy.

Quickly, please. There may still be
time.

How did you know?

I've been playing poker with two Yankee
captains. The Yankees knew there'd be

trouble tonight. They sent the cavalry
out to be ready for it.

Your husband and his friends are walking
into a trap.

Don't tell him.

He's trying to trap you.

Out the Decatur Road.

The old Sullivan Plantation.

The house is burned. They're meeting in
the cellar. I'll do what I can.

What's all this about?

If you don't tell me, I'll go crazy.

We thought if that's not to tell you,
Scarlet, that Ashley and Frank and the

others have gone to clean out those
woods where you were attacked.

It's what a great many of our southern
gentlemen have had to do lately for our

protection. And if they're captured,
they'll be hanged, Scarlet.

And it will be your fault. Another word
and you go out of this house, India.

Scarlet did what she thought she had to
do.

Now men are doing what they think they
have to do.

Frank and Ashley.

Oh, it isn't possible.

That's awesome, Miss Millie.

Here they come.

It's a win.

It's a win.

Open the door, Mammy.

Good evening, Mrs. Kennedy.

Which of you ladies is Mrs. Wilkes? I am
Mrs. Wilkes.

I should like to speak to Mr. Wilkes, if
you please.

He's not here.

Are you sure?

Don't you doubt Miss Mellie's word.

I meant no disrespect, Mrs. Wilkes.

If you'll give me your word, I won't
search the house.

Search if you like, but Mr. Wilkes is at
a political meeting at Mr.

Kennedy's store.

He's not at the store, and there's no
meeting tonight.

No political meeting.

We'll wait outside till he and his
friends return.

Sergeant, surround the house. Put a man
on each door and window.

Yes, sir.

Keep on with your sewing, ladies.

And I'll read aloud.

It's a personal history and experience
of David Copperfield.

Chapter one.

I'm born.

To begin my life with the beginning of
my life, I record that I was born.

Chapter 9, I have a memorable birthday.

I pass over all that happened at school
until the anniversary of my birthday

came round in March.

Except that Steerforth was more to be
admired than ever. I remember nothing.

He was going away at the end of the half
year, if not sooner, and was more

spirited and independent than before in
my eyes, and therefore more engaging

than before. But beyond this, I remember
nothing.

The great... I remember nothing.

Merlin, they're drunk.

Leave this to me, Scott.

And please, say nothing.

You stupid fool.

has been intoxicated again, Captain
Butler.

Well, bring him in. I'm sorry, Mrs.
Wilkes. Your husband's under arrest.

If you arrest all the men who get
intoxicated in Atlanta, you must have a

many Yankees in jail, Captain.

Bring him in, Captain Butler, if you can
walk yourself.

Wait a minute. I want to tell you a
story. Put him down that chair.

And now, Captain Butler, will you please
leave my house and try to remember not

to come here again.

Thanks I get for bringing him home and
not leaving him on the streets in this

shameful condition. Now, boys, all
together.

Dr. Lee!

I'm astonished at you.

Oh, Ashley, how

can you do this to me?

I ain't so very drunk, Millie.

Take him into the bedroom, ma 'am, and
lay him out on the bed as usual.

Don't touch him. He's under arrest. Now,
Tom!

What do you want to arrest him for?

I've seen him drunker.

I've seen you drunker. And you've seen
me. He can lie in the gutter for all I

care. I'm not a policeman.

But he led a raid tonight on that
shantytown where Mrs. Kennedy got into

this afternoon.

A lot of those shanties were burned.

A couple of men were killed.

It's about time you rebels learned you
can't take the law into your own hands.

What are you laughing at?

This isn't your night to teach that
lesson, Tom.

These two have been with me tonight.

Yes, sir. With you, Rhett?

Where?

I don't like to say in the presence of
ladies.

You'd better say.

Come out on the porch and I'll tell you.

Speak out, Captain Butler. I think I
have a right to know where my husband's

been.

Well, ma 'am...

We dropped in on a friend of mine.

And the captains.

Mrs. Bell Watley.

We played cards, drank champagne, and,
well... Now you've done it.

You have to show me up in front of my
wife?

I hope you're satisfied, Tom. These
ladies won't be on speaking terms with

husbands tomorrow.

Well, Red, I had no idea.

Look here, will you take an oath that...
They were with you tonight at... At

Bell's.

Ask Bell if you don't believe me. She'll
tell you again. Will you give me your

word, as a gentleman?

As a gentleman?

Why, certainly, Doc.

Well, if I... If I've made a mistake,
I'm sorry. I hope you'll forgive me,

Wilkes.

If you'll go and leave us in peace,
please.

Well, I... I say I'm sorry.

Well, I am sorry come on

It's

all right, it's only in the shoulder get
him on the bed where I can dress the I

Think I can go It's not worth the effort
which way in here

Mammy, I want some hot water. Yes. And
lint for bandages. Now, what can I use

for a probe if I only have my bag? Were
you really there?

What did it look like?

Does she have cutlass chandeliers, plush
curtains, and dozens of mirrors?

Good heavens, Mrs. Mead, remember
yourself.

Now, Captain Butler, tell me what
happened. All that happened.

I was too late.

When I got to the old Sullivan place,
there'd already been a skirmish with the

Yankees.

Now, Mr. Wilkes wounded and Dr. Meade
was with him.

I had to prove they had been somewhere.

Anyplace but where they were.

So I took them to Bell's. And she took
them in.

She's my way of being an old friend of
mine.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I couldn't think up a more
dignified alibi.

This isn't the first time you've come
between me and disaster, Captain Butler.

It isn't likely that I'd question any
device of yours.

I'll go and see what Dr. Mead means.

Ashley.

Have you no interest in what's become of
your own husband, Mrs. Kennedy?

Did Frank go with you to Bell Watling?

No.

Well, where is he?

He's lying out on Decatur Road.

Shot to the head.

Dead.

Who is it?

It's Miss Watling.

Oh, Miss Watling.

Won't you come in the house?

Oh, no. I couldn't do that, Miss
Wilkins.

You come in and sit a minute with me.

How can I thank you enough for what you
did for us? How can any of us thank you

enough? I got your note saying you were
going to call on me and thank me.

Why, Miss Wilkes, you must have lost
your mind.

I come up here as soon as it was dark to
tell you you mustn't even think of any

such thing.

Why, I'm... Well, you're... Well, it
wouldn't be fitting at all.

It wouldn't be fitting for me to call
and thank a kind woman who saved my

husband's life?

Miss Wilkes, there ain't never been a
lady in this town nice to me like you

I mean about the money for the hospital,
you know.

And I don't forget a kindness.

Then I got to thinking about you being
left a widder with a little boy.

Mr. Wilkes got hung.

He's a nice little boy. Your boy is Miss
Wilkes.

I got a boy myself.

So I... Oh, you have.

Does he live... Oh, no.

He ain't here in Atlanta.

He ain't never been here.

He's off at school.

I ain't seen him since he was little.

Well, anyways, if it had been that Miss
Kennedy's husband by herself, I wouldn't

have lifted a finger no matter what
Captain Butler said.

She's a mighty cold woman, prancing
about Atlanta by herself.

She killed her husband, same as if she
shot him.

You mustn't say unkind things about my
sister -in -law.

Oh, please don't freeze me, Miss Wilkes.

I forgot how you liked her.

But she just ain't in the same class
with you, and I can't help it if I think

so.

Well, anyways, I gotta be going.

I'm scared somebody will recognize this
carriage if I stay here any longer.

That wouldn't do you no good.

And, Ms. Wilkes, if you ever see me on
the street, you don't have to speak to

me.

I'll understand.

I should be proud to speak to you.

Proud to be under obligation to you.

I hope we meet again.

Oh, no.

That wouldn't have bitten.

Good night, Miss Wilkes.

Good night, Miss Wharton.

And you're wrong about Miss Kennedy.

She's brokenhearted about her husband.

Balls of fire. It's red.

Miss Garland?

Captain Butler here to see you. I told
him you was prostrating with grief.

Tell him.

Tell him I'll be right down, Manny.

She says she's coming.

I don't know why she's coming, but she's
a -coming.

You don't like me, Mammy.

Now, don't you argue with me. You don't.
You really don't.

It's no good, Scarlet.

What? The cologne.

I'm sure I don't know what you mean.

I mean, you've been drinking.

Brandy. Quite a lot.

What if I have?

Is that any of your affair?

Don't drink alone, Scarlett.

People always find out, and it ruins
their reputation.

What is it?

This is more than losing old Frank.

Oh, Red.

I'm so afraid.

I don't believe it.

You've never been afraid in your life.

I'm afraid now.

I'm afraid of dying and going to hell.

You look pretty healthy.

Maybe there isn't any hell. Oh, there
is.

I know there is. I was raised on it.

Far be it from me to question the
teachings of childhood.

Tell me what you've done that hell yawns
before you.

I ought never to have married Frank to
begin with.

He was so well and born. He loved her,
not me.

killed him.

Oh, Rhett, for the first time, I'm
finding out what it is to be sorry for

something I've done.

Dry your eyes.

If you had it all to do over again,
you'd do no differently.

You're like the thief who isn't the
least bit sorry he's stole, but he's

terribly, terribly sorry he's going to
jail.

I think you're on the verge of a crying
gang.

So I'll change the subject and say what
I came to say.

Say it then and get out.

What is it? That I can't go on any
longer without you.

Oh, you really are the most ill -bred
man to come here at a time like this. I

made up my mind you were the only woman
for me, Scarlet, the first day I saw you

at Twelve Oaks.

Now that you've got your lumber mill and
Frank's money, you won't come to me as

you did to the jail.

So I see I shall have to marry you.

I never heard of such bad tales. Would
you be more convinced if I fell to my

knees? Tell me to lose your vomit and
get out of here. Forgive me for

you with the impetuosity of my
sentiments, my dear Scarlet. I mean, my

Kennedy. But it cannot have escaped your
notice that for some time past, the

friendship I have felt for you has
ripened into a deeper feeling.

A feeling more beautiful, more pure,
more sacred.

Dare I name it? Can it be love?

Get up off your knees. I don't like your
common jokes.

This is an honorable proposal of
marriage. Made in what I consider a most

opportune moment.

I can't go all my life waiting to catch
you between husbands.

You're caught and you're conceited.

And I think this conversation's gone far
enough.

Besides, I shall never marry again.

Oh, yes, you will.

And you'll marry me.

You?

You?

I don't love you.

And I don't like being married.

Did you ever think of marrying just for
fun?

Marriage fun?

Fiddly -dee. Fun for men, you mean.

Oh, hush up. Do you want me to hear you
out, son? You've been married to a boy

and an old man.

Why not try a husband of the right age,
with a way with women?

You're a fool, Red Butler.

When you know I shall always love
another man.

Stop it. You hear me, Scarlett? Stop it.
No more of that talk.

I don't. I shall faint.

I want you to faint.

This is what you were meant for.

None of the fools you've ever known have
kissed you like this, have they?

You're Charles or you're Frank or you're
stupid Ashley.

Say you're going to marry me.

Say yes.

Say yes.

Yes.

Are you sure you meant it? You don't
want to take it back?

No.

Look at me and try to tell me the truth.

Did you say yes because of my money?

Well, yes, partly.

Partly?

Well, you know what?

Money does help. Of course, I'm fond of
you.

Fond of me?

Well, if I said I was madly in love with
you, you'd know I was lying.

But you've always said we had a lot in
common. Yes, you're right, my dear.

I'm not in love with you any more than
you are with me.

Heaven help the man who ever really
loves you.

Well, what kind of a ring would you
like, my darling?

Oh, a diamond ring.

And do buy a great big one, Red. You
shall have the biggest and the most

ring in Atlanta.

I'll take you to New Orleans where the
most expensive honeymoon my ill -gotten

gains can buy. Oh, that would be just
heavenly.

And I think I'll buy your trousseau for
you, too. Oh, Red, how wonderful. But

you won't tell anybody, will you, Red?

Still the little hypocrite.

Well, aren't you going to kiss me
goodbye?

Don't you think you've had enough
kissing for one afternoon?

Oh, you're impossible.

You can go, and I don't care if you
never come back.

But I will come back.

What are you thinking about, Scarlett?

I'm thinking about how rich we are.

Red, I can't keep the lumber business,
too, can't I? Yes, of course you can if

it abuses you.

And now that you're so rich, you can
tell everybody to go to the devil, as

you've always said you wanted to.

But you were the main one I wanted to go
to the devil.

Don't scrape the plate, Scarlett. I'm
sure there's more in the kitchen.

Oh, well, not if I lose chocolate if I
stop in the rail.

If you don't stop being such a cut,
you'll get as fat as Mammy. Then I'll

divorce you.

Don't you think it would be nice if you
bought something for Mammy, too?

Why should I buy her a present when she
called us both mules?

Mules? Why mules? Yeah.

She said we could give ourselves air and
get ourselves all licked up like

racehorses. We were just mules in horse
harness and we didn't fool anybody.

I never heard anything more true.

Mammy's a smart old soul, and one of the
few people I know whose respect I'd

like to have.

Well, I won't give her a thing if she
doesn't deserve it. Then I'll take her

petticoat. I remember my mammy always
said that when she went to heaven, she

wanted a red taffeta petticoat, so stiff
that it would stand by itself, and so

rustly that the Lord would think it was
made of angel's wing. Well, she won't

take it from you. She'd rather die than
wear it.

That may be, but I'm making the gesture
just the same.

I couldn't find it. I ran through the
mist and I couldn't find it.

Find what, honey?

Dreams don't work that way.

But when you get used to being safe and
warm, you'll stop dreaming that dream.

And Scarlett, I'm going to see that you
are safe.

Rhett, Rhett, will you do something for
me if I asked you?

You know I would.

Will you?

Will you take me away from here?

Don't you like New Orleans?

Oh, I love New Orleans, but I want to go
home and visit Tara.

Will you take me to Tara?

Yes, Scarlet.

Of course I will.

We'll go tomorrow.

You get your strength in this red earth
of Tara, Scarlet.

You're part of it, and it's part of you.

Oh, Red, I'd give anything to have Tara
the way it was before the war.

Would you?

Then go ahead and make it that way.

Spend whatever you want.

Make it as fine a plantation as it ever
was.

Oh, Red!

Red, you are good to me.

And can't we still have our big new
house in Atlanta?

Yes. And it can be as ornate as you
want.

Marble terraces, stained glass windows
and all. Oh, Red, won't everyone be

jealous? I want everybody who's been
mean to me to be pea green with envy.

I don't care.

It's going to be hateful filling that
new house just as you want and even

our servants.

Oh, darling, you mustn't think unkindly
of us.

She's made it possible for us to keep
Tara, always.

Yes, and what good is Tara?

She's had three husbands, and I'll be an
old maid.

Great G.

Horsifat.

Great G.

Horsifat. Horsey, we sure is rich now.

Hmm, teen quality. That's ridiculous.
Why can't I go in?

I'm entitled to at least see what my own
child looks like.

You control yourself, Mr. Red. You'll be
seeing this for a long time.

I'd like to apologize, Mr. Ritz, about
us not being a boy. Oh, hush your mouth,

Mammy. Who wants a boy?

Boys are not used to anybody.

Don't you think I'm proof of that?

Have a drink of sherry, Mammy.

Mammy, she is beautiful, isn't she? She
sure is.

Did you ever see a prettier one?

Well, sir, Miss Garland was might not
that pretty when she come, but not

Have another glass.

Mammy.

What's that rustling noise I hear?

Lord, Mr.

Red, that ain't nothing but my red silk
petticoat you done give me. Nothing but

your petticoat? I don't believe it.

Let me see. Pull up your skirt.

Mr. Red, you is bad.

Yo, Lord.

You sure took a long enough time

about wearing it.

Yes, sir.

Too long.

No more mule and horses harness?

Mr. Ed, Miss Scarlet was bad telling you
about that. You ain't holding that

against old Mammy, is you?

No, I ain't holding it against you.

I just wanted to know. Have another
glass, ma 'am.

Here, take the whole bottle.

Dr. Meade says you may go in now,
Captain Butler.

This sure is a happy day to me. I done
died for three generations of this

family's girl.

And it sure is a happy day.

Oh, yes, mammy, the happiest days are
when babies come. I wish... Oh, mammy,

she's beautiful.

What do you suppose they'll name her?

Miss Scarlet Dunn told me if it was a
girl, she's going to name it Eugenia

Victoria.

Yes, she's a beautiful baby.

The most beautiful baby ever.

You know that this is your birthday?

That you're a week old today?

Yes, I'm going to buy her a pony the
likes of which this town has never seen.

Yes, I'm going to send her to the best
schools in Charleston.

Yes, and her will be received by the
best families in the South.

And when it comes time for her to marry,
well, she'll be a little princess.

You certainly are making a fool of
yourself.

Why shouldn't I?

She's the first person who's ever
completely belonged to me.

Great balls of fire.

I had the baby, didn't I?

It's Melanie. May I come in? Come in,
Mellie.

Yes. Come in and look at my daughter's
beautiful blue eyes.

But, Captain Butler, most babies have
blue eyes when they're born.

Don't try and tell him anything, Mellie.
He knows everything about babies.

Nevertheless, her eyes are blue, and
they're going to stay blue.

As blue as the bunny blue flag.

That's it.

That's what we'll call her.

Bonnie Blue Butler.

Try again, Mammy.

20 inches.

20 inches.

I've grown as big as Aunt Pitty.

You simply got to make it 18 and a half
again, Mammy. You done had a baby, Miss

Scarlet. And you ain't never going to be
no 18 and a half inches again. Never.

And ain't nothing to do about it.

There is something to do about it.

I'm just not going to get old and fat
before my time.

I just won't have any more babies.

I heard Mr. Rett say that he'd be
wanting a son next year.

Go tell Captain Butler I decided not to
go out after all.

I have stuff in my room.

Bring my supper up here, too.

No objections to that, I hope.

No.

Yes.

I... I mean, I don't care where you have
your supper.

Rep.

Yes? You see, well, I've decided...

I hope I don't have any more children.

My pet.

As I told you before Bonnie was born.

It's immaterial to me whether you have
one child or 20.

No, but you know what I... Do you know
what I mean?

I do.

And do you know I can divorce you for
this?

You're just low enough to think of
something like that.

If you had any chivalry in you, it would
be nice, like... Well, look at Ashley

Wilkes. Melanie can't have any more
children, and he... He... You've been to

lumber office this afternoon, haven't
you?

What has that got to do with it?

Quite the little gentleman, Ashley.

Pray go on, Mrs. Butler.

It's no use.

You wouldn't understand.

You know, I'm sorry for you, Scarlett.

Sorry for me?

Yes, sorry for you, because you're
throwing away happiness with both hands.

And reaching out for something that'll
never make you happy.

I don't know what you're talking about.

If you were free and Miss Mellie were
dead and you had your precious Honorable

Ashley, do you think you'd be happy with
him?

You'd never know him.

Never even understand his mind.

Any more than you understand anything.

Except money.

Never mind about that. What I want to
know is... You may keep your sanctity,

Scarlet. It'll work no hardship on me.

You mean to say you don't care?

The world is full of many things and
many people.

And I shan't be lonely.

I'll find comfort elsewhere.

Well, that's fine.

But I warn you, just in case you change
your mind, I intend to lock my door. Why

bother? If I wanted to come in, no lock
could keep me up.

I always knew that most women were
cheats, hypocritical and hard.

But this one... Oh, Red, it ain't no
use.

What do you mean?

I mean you're poisoned with her.

I don't care what she's done to you.

You're still in love with her.

I don't think it pleasures me none to
say that. Maybe so, but I'm through with

her, I tell you. I'm through.

You've got to think of the child.

The child's worth ten of the mother.

You're a shrewd woman, Belle.

And a very nice one.

Yes, Red? I was just thinking of the
difference between you and... You're

hard -headed businesswomen and you're
both successful.

But you've got a heart, pal.

And you're honest.

Goodbye, Red.

Goodbye, Mel.

She'll be a wonderful horsewoman. Look
at those hands and that seat.

Oh, Fiddly Dee.

Just why we had to wheel the baby when
we had a house full of servants. Good

morning, Mrs. Merriweather. Good
morning, Captain Butler.

Good morning, Scarlet.

We're fools of ourselves in front of
these old buffaloes. If you'd have

of your position years ago, you wouldn't
have to do this.

But as it is, we're going to cultivate
every female dragon of the old guard in

this town.

Good morning, Mrs. Whiting. Good
morning, Captain Butler.

Good morning, Scarlet.

So the millionaire speculator's turning
respectable.

All of our money can't buy what I want
for Bonnie.

Oh, I'll admit, I've been at fault, too.

But Bonnie's going to have her place
among decent people.

Yes, even if we both have to crawl on
our bellies to every fat old cat.

Good morning, Mrs. Meade.

Good morning, Captain Butler.

Good morning, Scarlet.

Mrs. Merriweather, I've always had a
great regard for your knowledge.

I wonder if you could give me some
advice.

Why, certainly, Captain Butler. My
Bonnie sucks her thumb. I can't make her

it. You should make her stop it. It'll
ruin the shape of her mouth. I know, I

know. And she has such a beautiful
mouth, too.

I tried putting soap on her nails.

Soap? Bars. Put quinine on her thumb,
and she'll stop sucking it quick enough.

Quinine? I never would have thought of
it. I can't thank you enough, Mrs.

Mayweather. You've taken a great load
off my mind.

Good morning.

Good morning, darling.

Wasn't that Captain Butler?

Good morning, Caroline.

I was just thinking.

There must be a great deal of good in a
man who would love a child so much. But

of course there is.

Did I tell you that Fanny Elson told Dr.
Mead that Captain Butler finally

admitted that he was honored by the
Confederate Congress for his services at

Battle of Franklin?

No. And did I tell you, Caroline, that
Captain Butler made a stupendous

contribution to the Association for the
Beautification of the Graves of the

Glorious Dead?

No.

My little grandbaby, Napoleon Picard, is
giving a party for Bonnie next week.

Why, Dolly, Mary, whether you know
right, well, it was my idea to give a

for Bonnie Butler.

Why, Caroline, me, how can you say
anything like that? You know perfectly

that I've been planning it for a month.
I've never heard anything in all my

boring life.

Hey, Dolly, I... Now watch Daddy put
your pony over it, Bonnie. Now what?

again. Grip tightly with your legs and
sit close. Lean forward and be sure you

go with it. Hold your reins properly and
a firm hand.

Woo!

That was fine. I knew you'd do it. When
you get a little older, I'll take you to

Kentucky and Virginia.

You'll be the greatest horsewoman in the
South. Give your daddy a kiss.

Mr. Rhett! Mr. Rhett!

Mr. Rhett!

Did you see her, Mammy? Wasn't she
wonderful?

Mr. Rhett, I done told you and told you.
It just ain't fitting.

for a girl child to ride a straddle with
her dress flying up.

All right, Mammy, I'll teach her to ride
side saddle. And I'll buy her a blue

velvet riding habit.

She'll love that.

A nice black broadcloth is what little
girls wear.

Oh, now, Mammy, be reasonable.

Well, I don't think it's fitting, but...
It ain't fitting, it just ain't

fitting.

It ain't fitting.

My scarf.

What are you doing downtown at this time
of day?

Well, Ashley, I just... Why aren't you
helping Mellie get ready for my surprise

birthday party?

Why, Ashley Wilkes, you aren't supposed
to know anything about that.

Mellie'd be so disappointed if you
weren't surprised.

I won't let on.

I'll be the most surprised man in
Atlanta.

Well, as long as you're here, let me
show you the book.

So you can see just how bad a
businessman I really am.

Oh, don't let's fool with any books
today.

But I'm wearing a new bonnet.

All the figures I ever knew go right
slab out of my head.

The figures are well lost, but the
bonnet's as pretty as that one.

Scarlet, you know, you get prettier all
the time.

You haven't changed a bit since the day
of our last barbecue at Twelve Oaks,

where you sat under a tree surrounded by
dozens of bones.

That girl doesn't exist anymore.

Nothing's turned out as I expected,
Ashley.

Nothing.

Yes, we've traveled a long road since
the old days, haven't we, Scarlet?

Oh, the lazy days.

The warm, still country twilight.

The high, soft Negro laughter from the
quarter.

The golden warmth and security of those
days.

Don't look back, Ashley.

Don't look back.

The drag is at your heart, so... You
can't do anything but look back.

I didn't mean to make you sad, my dear.

I'd never want you to be anything but
completely happy.

Only your husband.

Come in.

Am I actually being invited into the
sanctuary?

You're not ready for Melanie's party.

I've got a headache, Whit. You go
without me and make my excuses to

What a white -livered little coward you
are.

Get her. You're going to that party and
you'll have to hurry.

Has India dared to... Yes, my dear,
India has. Every woman in town knows the

story, and every man, too. You should
have killed them spreading lies.

I have a strange way of not killing
people who tell the truth.

There's no time to argue. Now, get up. I
won't go. I can't go until this

misunderstanding is cleared up. You're
not going to cheat Miss Mellie out of

satisfaction of publicly ordering you
out of her house. There was nothing

India hates me, so I can't go around. I
couldn't face it. If you don't show your

face tonight, you'll never be able to
show it in this town as long as you

Well, that wouldn't bother me. You're
not going to ruin Bonnie's chances.

You're going to that party of yours for
her sake.

Now get dressed.

Wear that.

Nothing modest or matronly will do for
this occasion.

And put on plenty of rouge.

I want you to look your part tonight.

Good night, Scarlet.

But, Red, you can't... You'll go into
the arena alone.

The lions are hungry for you. Oh, Red,
don't leave me. Don't. You're not

What a lovely dress, Scarlet, darling.

India wasn't able to come tonight. Will
you be an angel? I do need you to help

me receive my guests.

It's me.

Here's our darling Scarlet.

Good evening.

Good evening.

Why, Scarlet. Good evening. Good
evening, Miss Scarlet.

Ashley,

aren't you going to get our Scarlet a
glass of punch?

Did you have a good time tonight at Miss
Mellie's party, child? Yes, yes.

Now, ma 'am, be sure and leave word.

Captain Butler asked for me when he
comes back. I'm asleep.

Yes, ma 'am.

Come in, Mrs Butler.

Come here.

Sit down.

There's no reason why you shouldn't have
your nightcap, even if I am here. I

didn't want a drink. I heard a noise.
You heard nothing of the kind.

You wouldn't have come down if you
thought I was here.

You must need a drink badly.

I do not.

Take it.

Don't give yourself airs. I know you
drink on the quiet, and I know how much

drink. You think I care if you like your
brandy?

You're drunk and I'm going to bed. I'm
very drunk.

And I intend getting still drunker
before the evening's over.

But you're not going to bed.

Not yet.

Sit down.

So she stood by you, did she?

How does it feel to have the woman
you've wronged cloak your sins for you?

You're wondering if she knows all about
you and Ashley.

You're wondering if she did it just to
save her face.

You're thinking that she's a fool for
doing it, even if it did save your hide,

but... I will not listen. Yes, you'll
listen.

Miss Mellie's a fool, but not the kind
you think.

It's just that there's too much honor in
her to ever conceive of dishonor in

anyone she loves.

And she loves you.

Though just why she does, I'm sure I
don't know.

If you weren't so drunk and insulting, I
could explain everything.

As it is, though. If you get out of that
chair once more...

Of course, the comic figure in all this
is

the long -suffering Mr.

Wilkes.

Mr. Wilkes, who can't be mentally
faithful to his wife and won't be

to her technically.

Why doesn't he make up his mind?

Rat, you... Observe my hands, my dear.

I could tear you to pieces with him.

And I'd do it if it'd take Ashley out of
your mind forever.

But it wouldn't.

So I'll remove him from your mind
forever this way.

I'll put my hands so.

One on each side of your head.

And I'll smash your skull between them
like a walnut.

That'll block him out.

Take your hands off me, you drunken
fool.

You know, I've always admired your
spirit, my dear.

Never more than now, when you're
cornered.

I'm not cornered. And you'll never
corner me, Red Butler. Oh, frighten me.

You've lived in dirt so long, you can't
understand anything else.

And you're jealous of something you
can't understand.

Good night.

Jealous, am I?

Yes, I suppose I am.

Even though I know you've been faithful
to me all along.

How do I know?

Because I know Ashley Wilkes and his
honorable breed.

They're gentlemen.

That's more than I can say for you or
for me.

We're not gentlemen.

And we have no honor, have we?

Not that easy, Scarlet.

Turn me out while you chase Ashley
Wilkes while you dreamed of Ashley

There's one night you're not turning me
out.

How are you feeling this morning, Mammy?

Well, this misery in my back ain't so
good.

You acting mighty happy this morning,
Miss Scarlet?

I am, Mammy, I am.

I'd like to extend my apologies for my
conduct of last night.

Oh, but Red.

I was very drunk and quite swept off my
feet by your charms.

Oh, you needn't bother to apologize.
Nothing you ever do surprises me.

Scarlett, I've been thinking things over
and I really believe it would be better

for both of us if we admitted we'd made
a mistake and got a divorce.

A divorce?

Yes. There's no point in our holding on
to each other, is there?

I'll provide for you amply.

You've plenty of grounds. Just give me
Bonnie and you can say what you please

and I won't contest it. Thank you very
much. But I wouldn't dream of disgracing

the family with a divorce.

You'd disgrace it quick enough if Ashley
were free.

It makes my head spin to think how
quickly you'd divorce me.

Wouldn't you, Scarlet?

Well, answer me.

Wouldn't you?

Will you please go now and leave me
alone?

Yes, I'm going. That's what I came to
tell you.

I'm going on a very extended trip.

To London.

And I'm leaving today.

Oh. And I'm taking Bonnie with me.

So you'll please get a little duds
-packed right away.

You'll never take my child out of this
house.

Jeez, my child too, Charlotte.

And you're making a mistake if you think
I'm leaving her here with a mother who

hasn't the decency to consider her own
reputation.

You're a fine one to talk.

Do you think I'll let that child get out
of this house when you'll probably have

a round with people like... like that
bell?

If you were a man, I'd break your neck
for that.

As it is, I'll thank you to shut your
stupid mouth.

It's for you giving yourself pious airs
about your motherhood. Why, a cat's a

better mother than you are.

You have her things packed and ready for
me in an hour, or I warn you.

I've always thought a good lashing with
a buggy whip would benefit you

immensely.

Excuse me, Mr. Rhett.

Hello, Uncle Rhett. Hello, hello, Bo.
Daddy!

then hunting for a rabbit skin to wrap
my little Bonnie in.

Give your best sweetheart a kiss.

Bonnie, I'm going to take you on a long
trip to Fairyland.

Where? Where?

I'm going to show you the Tower of
London, where the little princes were,

London Bridge.

London Bridge?

Will it be falling down?

Well, it will if you want it to,
darling.

What's the matter with my Bonnie?

A bear!

Oh, a bear?

A big bear?

Grandpa Bear! But he's having my kiss!

Well, I'll stay here and shoot him if he
comes back.

Oh,

good

evening, Mr. Butler.

Haven't I told you you'll never leave
this child alone in the dark?

If you pardon me, sir, children are
often afraid of the dark, but they get

it. If you just let her scream for a
night... Let her scream?

Either you're a fool or the most inhuman
woman I've ever seen.

Well, of course, sir, if you want her to
grow up nervous and cowardly...

Cowardly? There isn't a cowardly bone in
her body.

You're discharged.

As you say, sir.

Bonnie, aren't you happy you're in
London with me?

You run along with Mammy.

Come on, Hunk. Go with Mammy. Sure.

Mrs. Hunk.

Mrs.

Butler, I believe.

Mammy said you'd come back.

Not only to bring Bonnie.

Apparently any mother, even a bad one,
is better for a child than none.

You mean you're going away again?

What perception, Mrs. Butler.

Right away.

In fact, I left my bags at the station.

Oh.

You're looking pale.

Is there a shortage of room?

Or can this oneness mean you've been
missing me?

If I'm pale, it's your fault.

Not because I've been missing you, but
because...

Pray continue, Mrs. Butler.

It's because I'm going to have a baby.

Indeed?

And who's the happy father?

You know it's yours.

I don't want it any more than you do.

No woman want the child of a cat like
you. I wish it were... I wish it were

anybody's child but yours.

Well, cheer up.

Maybe you'll have an accident.

Is she better?

Has she asked for me?

Don't you understand? She's delirious.

Red.

I want Red.

What's the matter, honey?

Did you call somebody, child?

Got to move fast.

Scarlett's dead.

Oh, no, she's much better.

Really, she is.

There, there, Captain Butler, you're
beside yourself.

She'll very soon be well again.

I promise you. No, no, you don't
understand.

She never wanted this baby.

Not want a baby? Why, every woman wants
a baby. Yes, you want children, but she

doesn't. Not my children.

She told me she didn't want any more
children.

And I wanted to hurt her because she'd
hurt me.

I wanted to, and I did. House Captain,
by the way, you mustn't tell me these

things. It's not fit.

I didn't know about this baby until the
other day when she fell.

If I'd only known, I'd have come
straight home, whether she wanted me

not. Well, of course you would.

And then when she told me...

They're on the steps. What did I do?

What did I say?

I laughed and I said... But you didn't
mean it. I know you didn't mean it.

No, but I did mean it. I was crazy with
jealousy.

She's never cared for me. I thought I
could make her care back.

You're so wrong.

Scarlett loves you a great deal.

Much more than she knows.

If that were only true, I could wait
forever.

If she'd only forgive me. Forget this
ever happened. She will.

You must be patient.

No, no, it's not possible. You don't
understand. If you only knew who she

loved, you wouldn't believe it.

Surely you haven't listened to idle
gossip.

No, Captain Butler.

I wouldn't believe it.

There, there.

Scarlet's going to get well, and there
can be other babies.

No, no, no. She couldn't even if she
wanted to.

after what she's been through.

Well, of course she could.

I'm going to.

No, Miss Mellie, you mustn't risk it.
It's too dangerous.

Children are life renewing itself,
Captain Butler.

And when life does that, danger seems
very unimportant.

I've never before known anyone who was
really brave.

I pray God things will go well with you,
Miss Mellie.

And I want to thank you for all you've
done for me and Miss Scarlet.

From my heart, I thank you.

Miss Scarlet's feeling he better today,
Mr. Red.

I've come to ask your forgiveness.

In the hope that we can give our life
together another chance.

Our life together?

When did we ever have a life together?

Yes, you're right.

But I'm sure if we could only try again,
we could be happy.

What is there to make us happy now?

Well, there's Bonnie and I love you,
Scarlett.

When did you discover that?

I've always loved you.

You've never given me a chance to show
it.

Well, and just what do you want me to
do?

To begin with, give up the mill,
Scarlet.

We'll go away.

We'll take Bonnie with us and we'll have
another honeymoon.

Give up the mill? But why should I? It's
making more money than it ever did.

Yes, I know, but we don't need it. Sell
it.

Or better still, give it to Ashley.

Melanie's been such a friend to both of
us. Melanie, always Melanie. If you only

think a little more about me. I am
thinking of you.

And I'm thinking that, well...

Maybe it's the mill that's taking you
away from me. And from Bonnie.

I know what you're thinking.

And don't try to bring Bonnie into this.
You're the one that's taking her away

from me. But she loves you. You've done
everything possible to make her love you

and not me. Why is she so spoiled now
that... Mommy, Daddy, watch me.

We're watching, darling.

You're mighty pretty, precious.

So are you.

I'm going to jump. Watch me, Daddy.

I don't think you ought to do much
jumping yet, Bonnie.

Remember, you just learned to ride side
saddle.

I will so jump. I can jump better than
ever because I've grown.

And I moved the bar higher. Don't let
him do it, Red.

No, Bonnie, you can't.

Well, if you fall off, don't cry and
blame me.

Red, stop.

Bonnie.

Bonnie.

Just like Coke.

Noisy, Miss Mellie. I sure is glad
you've come.

Oh, Bonnie.

This house won't seem the same without
Bonnie.

How's Miss Scarlet bearing her?

Miss Mellie, this year's done broke her
heart.

But I didn't bet you here on Miss
Scarlet's account what that child got to

stand. The good Lord give her strength
to stand.

It's Mr. Red I was worried about.

He'd have lost his mind these last
couple of days.

Oh, no, Manny, no.

I ain't never seen no man, black or
white, sit such a store on any child.

When Dr.

Meade said her neck broke, Mr. Red
grabbed his gun and ran out there and

that poor pony.

And for a minute, I think he'd go out
and shoot himself.

Oh, poor Captain Buckner. Yes, and Miss
Collins, she called him a murderer for

teaching that child to jump. She said,
you give me my baby what you give.

And then he'd say, Miss Scarlet, they
never cared nothing about Miss Botley.

They'd like to turn my blood cold, the
things they say to one another.

Stop, Mammy. Don't tell me anymore.

And then that night, Mr. Red, he locked
himself in the nursery with Miss Botley.

But he wouldn't even open the door when
Miss Scarlet beat on it and hollered to

him. And that's the way it's been for
two whole days.

Oh, Mammy.

And then this evening, Miss Scarlet, she
shouted to the door, and she said, the

funeral's set for tomorrow morning. And
he says, you try that, and I'll kill you

tomorrow. Do you think I'm going to put
my child in the dark when she's so

scared of it?

Oh, Mammy, Mammy has lost his mind. Yes,
and that's the God truth.

He ain't going to let us bury that
child.

You've got to help us, Miss Valley.

Oh, but I can't, too.

If you can't help us, who can?

Mr. Redd always said great stuff, by
your opinion.

Please, Miss Mellie.

I'll do what I can, Mammy.

Get away from that door and leave us
alone.

It's Mrs. Wilkes, Captain Butler.

Please let me in.

I've come to see Bonnie.

Oh, no.

Please have Mr. Red in this office,
please.

Mammy, I want you to go and make a good
deal of strong coffee.

I'll bring it up to Captain Butler.

I'll go and see Miss Scarlett.

But, uh... Captain Butler's quite
willing for the funeral to take place.

Tomorrow morning.

Hallelujah. I expect the angel fights on
your side, Miss Mellie.

Hallelujah.

Miss Mellie. Miss Mellie.

Miss Mellie. Miss Mellie. Miss Mellie.

Send for Dr. Mead, Mammy.

And try.

Try to get me home.

Miss Mellie. Miss Mellie.

As much as we may want to.

You're going back to bed now.

Oh, Red, she can't be dying.

She can't be.

She hasn't your strength.

She's never had any strength.

She's never had anything but heart.

You knew that, too.

Why do I have to go back to bed? It's
morning.

It isn't really morning yet.

You may come in now, Scarlet.

Talk to me, please.

I've been waiting here two whole days.

And I've got to tell her that I was
wrong about something. She knows you

wrong. She wants to see Scarlet.

Miss Melody's going to die in peace.

I won't have you easing your conscience
telling her things that make no

difference now.

You understand?

Do you miss me?

Anything.

Look after my little son.

You gave me two years before.

Remember?

Pay your phone.

Please, Mellie, don't talk this way. I
know you'll get well.

I miss me.

College. Yes.

Yes, and Europe, and a pony. Whatever he
wants, but... Mellie, do try.

Ashley. Ashley and you.

What about Ashley, Manny?

Look after him for me.

Just as you looked after me for him.

I will, Manny.

Look after him.

But never let him.

What are we going to do?

Captain Butler.

Be kind to him.

What?

He loves you so.

Yes. Goodbye.

You ladies may come in now.

I don't know where the mate for this is.

He must have put it away.

What can I do? I can't live without her.
I can't.

Everything I ever had is going with her.

Why, Ashley.

You really love her, don't you?

She's the only dream I ever had.

Didn't die in the face of reality.

Dreams always dreams with you.

Never come to them.

Oh, Scarlett, if you knew what I've gone
through.

Ashley, you should have told me years
ago that you loved her and not me, and

left me dangling with your talk of
honor.

But you had to wait till now, now, when
Mellie's dying, to show me that I could

never mean any more to you than this
waddling woman does to Rhett.

And I've loved something that doesn't
really exist.

It doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter one bit.

Oh, Ashley.

Ashley, forgive me.

Don't cry.

She mustn't see you've been crying.

Ashley.

Come in.

Matt.

Melanie. She's... Well, God rest her.

She was the only completely kind person
I ever knew.

A great lady.

A very great lady.

So she's dead.

That makes it nice for you, doesn't it?

Oh, how can you say such a thing?

You know how I loved her, really.

Oh, I don't know that I do.

But at least it's to your credit that
you could appreciate her at the end.

Of course I appreciated her. She thought
of everybody except herself.

Why, her last words were about you.

What did she say?

Said, be kind to Captain Butler.

He loves you so.

Did she say anything else?

She said... She asked me to look after
Ashley, too.

It's convenient to have the first wife's
permission, isn't it?

What do you mean?

What are you doing?

I'm leaving you, my dear.

All you need now is a divorce and your
dreams of Ashley can come true.

I don't want a divorce.

Oh, Red, when I knew tonight, when I
knew I loved you, I ran home to tell

oh, darling, darling. Please don't go on
with this.

Leave us some dignity to remember out of
our marriage.

Spare us this last. This last?

Oh, Red, do listen to me. I must have
loved you for years, only I was such a

stupid fool I didn't know it.

Please believe me. You must care.

Mellie said you did.

I believe you.

And what about Ashley Wilkes? I...

I never really loved Ashley.

You certainly gave a good imitation of
it up to this morning.

Now, Scarlet, I tried everything.

If you'd only met me halfway, even when
I came back from London. I was so glad

to see you. I was red, but you were so
nasty.

And then when you were sick, and it was
all my fault, I hoped against hope that

you'd call for me, but you didn't. I
wanted you. I wanted you desperately,

didn't think you wanted me.

It seems we've been at cross purposes,
doesn't it?

But it's no use now.

As long as there was Bonnie, there was a
chance we might be happy.

I like to think that Bonnie was you. A
little girl again.

Before the war and poverty had done
things to you.

She was so like you.

And I could pet her and spoil her as I
wanted to spoil you.

But when she went, she took everything.

My darling, you're such a child.

You think that by saying I'm sorry, all
the past can be corrected.

Here, take my handkerchief.

Never in any crisis of your life have I
known you to have a handkerchief.

Red, Red, where are you going?

I'm going to Charleston, back where I
belong. Please, please take me with you.

No.

I'm through with everything here.

I want peace.

I want to see if somewhere there isn't
something left in life of charm and

grace.

Do you know what I'm talking about? No.

I only know that I love you.

That's your misfortune.

Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

I can't let him go. I can't.

There must be some way to bring him
back.

Oh, I can't think about it now.

I'll go crazy if I do.

tomorrow.

It's the only thing that matters.

It's the only thing that lasts.

Something you love better than me,
though you may not know it.

Terror. It's this from which you get
your strength.

The rhetoric of terror.

The land's the only thing that matters.

It's the only thing that lasts.

Something you love better than me,
though you may not know it. Terror.

It's this from which you get your
strength.

The red earth of Tara. Well, that's the
only thing that matters. Something you

love better than me. The red earth of
Tara. Tara. Tara. Tara.

Tara.

Oh.

I'll go home.

But I'll think of some way to get him
back.

After all, tomorrow is another day.
