Gone with the Wind’s Fiery Challenges
The Great Fire Scene
The burning of Atlanta in “Gone with the Wind” is one of the most dramatic scenes in cinema history. To achieve this, the filmmakers used sets from old movies that were due to be demolished. They set multiple sets on fire, creating a massive blaze that could be seen for miles, resulting in a spectacular and realistic scene.
Scarlett’s Iconic Curtain Dress
One of the most memorable costumes in “Gone with the Wind” is Scarlett O’Hara’s dress made from green curtains. This iconic outfit was designed by Walter Plunkett and symbolized Scarlett’s resourcefulness and determination. The dress has since become a cultural icon, representing the character’s resilience and creativity.
