The highlight of this week's
activities is the 1939 classic film
"Gone With The Wind" (GWTW),
on television in two parts on
Sunday and Monday nights. Part
one will be shown at 8 p.m. Sunday
on Channel 10 with the conclusion
set for 8 p.m. Monday.
"GWTW" is revered by countless
millions as the greatest
American film ever made. Even
though this is debatable, few would
argue that the portrayals of Rhett

O'Hara by Vivien Leigh are two of
the most memorable performances
ever recorded on film.
"GWTW" won eight Oscars,
including Best Picture, Best Actress
(Leigh), Best Supporting
Actress (Hattie McDaniel), and
Best Director (Victor Fleming),
the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial
Award, and two special awards for

AS BOSLEY CROWTHER of the
New York Times wrote, "Gone
With The Wind" is more than the
exposure of a vivid character,
more than a superfluity of adventure,
romance and spectable. It
is a superior illustration of a large
chunk of American legend and
