Gone With The Wind (1939)
from Two Boys in a Balcony Hosted by twoboysinabalcony
I close my eyes... only for a moment and the moment's gone... I do declare, ladies and gentlemen, I do declare indeed. We've finally done it. We've finally reached a Best Picture winner that STUCK AROUND. Adjusted for inflation, it's the highest grossing film of all time (and thank god we don't adjust for inflation) it's David O. Selznick's Gone with the Wind starring Vivian Leigh and Clark Gable EVER HEARD OF IT? Statistically more people have seen Gone with the Wind than any other movie ever made but who has the fucking time? This, very easily the most problematic movie we've ever covered, is 3 hours and 40 flippin' minutes long! WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT? Nothing should be that long. Movies, tv, life. Everything should be wrapped up in no more than 2 hours and 15 minutes but Gone with the Wind needs to distract you for an extra hour and a half from all the DISGUSTING WHITEWASHING OF SOUTHERN RACISM AND THE CONFEDERACY. Holy shit. This movie is majestic and terrible. Beautiful and horrifying. Captivating and disgusting. The boys get into all that and not much else in this extra bloated ep of Two Boys in a Balcony Save America
