Gone With The Wind

Gone With The Wind Movie 

 

As well as being a romance, Gone with the Wind is also a meditation on the changes that swept the American South in the 1860s. The novel begins in 1861, just before the Civil War, and ends in 1871, after the Democrats regain power in Georgia. The South changes completely during the intervening years, and Mitchell's novel highlights the struggles of Southerners living during the Civil War era.

 

While Gerald tells Scarlett in the opening scenes of the film that the land should be cherished because it can weather humanity's recklessness, it is not until she escapes from Atlanta and returns to her destroyed home that she begins to believe him. However, her whole lifestyle is gone, she battles to keep the land since it is all that remaining parts of the world she lost. While she is in Atlanta making her fortune, Scarlett realizes that the land will be there sitting tight for her. After Melanie, Bonnie, and Rhett are gone from her life, Scarlett utilizes the land as a beginning stage to assist her with reconstructing. The South, as well, survives the detestations of war and stays solid, however it is perpetually changed. The Old South is gone, however, if the land remains its kin can generally begin life once more.

 

Prior to the conflict, Scarlett complies with essentially every one of the standards of elegant Southern culture, even the ones she sees as unnatural. At the point when the conflict starts, however, Scarlett tracks down that the social code unwinds, and she starts to humor her normal impulse to disrupt guidelines. Moreover, rule-breakers like Rhett become essential toward the South's endurance. Scarlett turns out to be progressively inconsiderate of social mores after she gets back to oversee Tara and the South loses ground in the conflict. She becomes confident and business-wise, attributes that would be stunning in an Old South lady yet that guarantee Scarlett's endurance in the New South. During Reconstruction, Scarlett purchases a sawmill and associates with the Northerners in power, showing contempt for the guidelines of the Old South. Scarlett's excursion from prewar beauty to rough survivor to solidified entrepreneur matches the excursion of Southern culture previously, during, and after the Civil War. After the bad time of Reconstruction, Scarlett returns to Tara to recover her legacy, recovering her Old Southern roots yet treating them with new experience. So too does her Southern culture recover control of its political constructions and reconstruct a public that blends the old world in with the upgraded one.

 

In Gone with the Wind, the power of human perseverance is a central theme. Despite the many challenges Scarlett faces during and after the Civil War, she can power through them all and build a life for herself. After watch the movie, I was very interested about what happen. And I took something away from it, which was sometimes you must worry about it tomorrow. When life is looking down and there is just too much to handle sometimes you just have to say screw it and not think about it for a little bit.
