《飄》-經典片段
瑞德離開郝思嘉後，Scarlett O’Hara最後坐在樓梯的臺階上說——“After all， tomorrow is another day。”
思嘉在回到被毀的傢園後,在山頭上說----“上帝為我作證,上帝為我作證,北佬休想將我整垮.等熬過了這一關,我决不再忍饑挨餓,也决不再讓我的親人忍饑挨餓了,哪怕讓我去偷,去搶,去殺人.請上帝為我作證,我無論如何都不再忍饑挨餓了!”
點評
有人說這部電影最經典的場面是Scarlett O’Hara在戰爭後回到被毀的傢園，在園中手握紅土發誓，無論去偷去搶都不會讓傢人挨餓那段，因為那時她的眼神和表情真的特別震撼人。這樣說我也不反對，因為這實在是一部太經典的片子，經典的場面太多，各人有各人的偏愛。我倒是情願選擇這個：以後，明天就是新的一天了。什麽是愛？什麽是恨？愛和恨可以象兩條永不相交的平行綫，愛和恨也可能衹需要一縷陽光就可以消融。珍惜擁有的人是幸福的，因為我們總是並不確切知道我們需要的到底是什麽。太多的人衹有在失去的時候，纔知道去珍惜。泰戈爾有一句詩我特別喜歡：如果錯過太陽時你流淚了，那麽你也將錯過星星了。歷盡滄桑，你要學會忽略過去。因為——tomorrow is another day。
“不要不辭而別，我的愛人。
我看望了一夜，現在我臉上睡意重重。
衹恐我在睡中把你丟失了。
不要不辭而別，我的愛人。
我驚起伸出雙手去摸觸你，我問自己說：
“這是一個夢麽？"
但願我能用我的心係住你的雙足，緊抱在胸前！
不要不辭而別，我的愛人。”
——泰戈爾《園丁集》

《飄》-點評
Gone with the Wind, first published in May 1936, is a romantic novel written by Margaret Mitchell. The story is set in Clayton County, Georgia and Atlanta, Georgia during the American Civil War and Reconstruction and depicts the experiences of Scarlett O'Hara, the spoiled daughter of a well-to-do plantation owner. The novel is the source of the extremely popular 1939 film of the same name.
Title
The title is taken from the first line of the third stanza of the poem Non Sum Qualis eram Bonae Sub Regno Cynarae by Ernest Dowson: "I have forgot much, Cynara! gone with the wind". The novel's protagonist, Scarlett O'Hara, also uses the title phrase in a line in the book: when her home area is overtaken by the Yankees, she wonders to herself if her home, a plantation called Tara, is still standing, or if it was "also gone with the wind which had swept through Georgia". More generally, the title has been interpreted as referring to the entire way of life of the antebellum South as having "Gone with the Wind". The prologue of the movie refers to the old way of life in the South as "gone with the wind…."
The title for the novel was a problem for Mitchell. She initially titled the book "Pansy", the original name for the character of Scarlett O'Hara. Although never seriously considered, the title "Pansy" was dropped once MacMillan persuaded Mitchell to rename the main character. Other proposed titles included "Tote the Weary Load" and "Tomorrow is Another Day", the latter taken from the last line in the book; however, the publisher noted that there were several books close to the same title at the time, so Mitchell was asked to find another title, and "Gone with the Wind" was chosen.
Plot
This section's plot summary may be too long or overly detailed. Please help improve it by removing unnecessary details and making it more concise. (April 2009)
Overview
Scarlett O'Hara is the daughter of an Irish immigrant who has risen from humble origins to become materially and socially successful in the deep south of 1861. He owns a plantation named Tara in Georgia. Scarlett is infatuated with Ashley Wilkes, who, although attracted to her, marries his cousin, Melanie Hamilton. Wilkes is genuinely ambiguous about his feelings toward Scarlett. He knows his feelings run deep, and are both emotional and sexual in nature; but he never resolves whether to act upon his feelings, or to renounce them and definitively reject Scarlett’s flirtations, in favor of his wife and his social position. And though he never sins in the flesh, the novel clearly implies that he does so in his heart, leading Scarlett along; limited only by his weakness in making a decision as to what ultimately, he should do.
At the party announcing Ashley's engagement to Melanie, Scarlett meets Rhett Butler, who has a reputation as a rogue. As the Civil War begins, Scarlett accepts a proposal of marriage from Melanie's brother, Charles Hamilton, who soon dies of disease in training. Scarlett's main concern regarding his death is that she must wear black and cannot attend parties. After the war, Scarlett inherits Tara and manages to keep the place going. When Scarlett cannot get money from Rhett to pay the taxes on Tara, she marries her sister's fiancé, Frank Kennedy, takes control of his business, and increases its profitability with business practices that make many Atlantans resent her. Frank is killed when he and other Ku Klux Klan members raid a shanty town where Scarlet was assaulted while driving alone. Remorseful after Frank's death, Scarlett marries Rhett, who is aware of her passion for Ashley but hopes that one day she will come to love him instead. Scarlett eventually comes to realize that she does love Rhett, but only once the couple has been through so much that Rhett has fallen out of love with her.
Part one
Scarlett O'Hara is the belle of the County. Her flirtatiousness and charm won the hearts of many men in Clayton County, Georgia. At sixteen years old, however, she begins the trials that will completely overtake her life for the next twelve years. She does this by having an impromptu marriage with the bashful Charles Hamilton to save face and make her real love—Ashley Wilkes—jealous. However, soon after their wedding, Charles and all the other men in Georgia who are able to bear arms, go to war against the Yankees at the start of the Civil War. After six weeks of being in camp, Charles dies of measles. With Charles's death, Scarlett's main concern is that, in order to conform to society, she must dress in black mourning clothes and attend no parties.
Parts two and three
Scarlett moves to Atlanta to stay with her sister-in-law and Ashley’s wife, Melanie Wilkes and Melanie's Aunt Pittypat. Melanie grows to love Scarlett like a sister; however, Scarlett is very self-centered and resents Melanie. Scarlett meets Rhett Butler again while in Atlanta; he is attentive to her and she uses him (and his money) when it is convenient. Rhett has a bad reputation and is "not received" in polite society. Ashley is able to come home for Christmas from the war and stay with the ladies. At the end of his stay, Scarlett promises him that she will keep Melanie safe. With the help of Rhett and her personal slave, Prissy, Scarlett delivers Melanie's child Beau in the middle of a battle and leads Melanie, the baby and Prissy to safety back at Tara. The Civil War is ending and the northern army is marching through Georgia laying waste to the country. Upon her arrival, Scarlett hears the news of the death of her beloved mother, Ellen, of typhoid. Scarlett stays at Tara Plantation and tries to keep it solvent and care for its inhabitants.
Part four
Scarlett hears that Tara is about to be charged an enormous amount of tax by the new corrupt local government which she cannot pay. She decides to go to Atlanta and charm Rhett into paying the bill. After offering herself to Rhett as his mistress and being refused, however, Scarlett marries Frank Kennedy, who has enough money to pay the tax on Tara. Frank is the fiancé of Scarlett's sister Suellen so she deceives him into thinking that Suellen is engaged to someone else in Clayton County.
With money borrowed from and then repaid to Rhett, Scarlett buys two timber mills and proceeds to make them very profitable. Her actions are considered very inappropriate for a woman by Atlanta society. As she travels home from it one night, she is attacked. Frank, Ashley, and many other men in the newly formed Ku Klux Klan avenge her attack. In the fight, Frank is killed.
A few months later Scarlett marries Rhett, who has become very rich by dubious means during the War.
Part five
Scarlett and Rhett start to enjoy their new life together. They have a child named Eugenia Victoria "Bonnie Blue" Butler, who becomes Rhett’s pride and joy. They live happily until Scarlett’s old infatuation with Ashley takes over. When Bonnie is killed in a riding accident Scarlett in the first flush of grief tells Rhett that she blames him. Rhett is heartbroken over the death of his beloved daughter. He drinks heavily and finally decides, after the death of Melanie Wilkes, to leave Scarlett forever. However, Scarlett realizes that she loves Rhett and never truly loved Ashley, but merely an idea of him. She confesses this to Rhett, but he is adamant. The book ends on an ambiguous note, as she decided to return to the familiarity of her beloved Tara, where she will find a way to win Rhett back: "Tomorrow is another day!".
Characters
Butler family
* Rhett Butler – Scarlett's love interest and third husband, often publicly shunned for scandalous behavior, sometimes accepted for his charm. He is financially a very shrewd man and initially appears to love Scarlett dearly.
* Eugenia Victoria "Bonnie Blue" Butler – Scarlett and Rhett's pretty, beloved daughter.
Wilkes family
* Ashley Wilkes – The gallant Ashley married his unglamourous cousin, Melanie, because she represented all that he loved and wanted in life, that is, the quiet and happy life of a Southern gentleman of the "Twelve Oaks" plantation. Ashley Wilkes marries Melanie Hamilton as an arranged marriage between the Wilkes-Hamilton families; in which the marriage of cousins (which Ashley and Melanie are) is the practice; when necessary to preserve the blood line and social position of the family. As such, Wilkes is not, in the strictest sense, brought to marriage by love, money, or sexual infatuation; but by a sense of duty to preserve the socio-economic status quo of a world which he personally enjoys and agrees with; and believes this marriage will support and sustain.
Wilkes becomes a soldier for the Confederate cause though he personally would have freed the slaves his father owned had the war not erupted, or at least that is what he claimed. Although many of his friends and relations were killed in the Civil War, Ashley survived to see its brutal aftermath. He remains the object of Scarlett's daydream of infatuated devotion, even throughout her three marriages. She is simply obsessed with unobtainable Ashley. Believing that she was in love with him, Scarlett imagined Ashley to be the "perfect man", leaving her unable to love another.
* Melanie Hamilton Wilkes – Ashley's wife and cousin, her character is that of the genuinely humble, serene and gracious Southern woman. As the story unfolds, Melanie becomes progressively physically weaker, first by childbirth, then the effects of war, and ultimately illness. She had her own unique inner spirit of perseverance, as did Scarlett. Melanie loved Ashley, Beau, and Scarlett unwaveringly, and dutifully supported the Confederate cause, revealing the naivete of her character.
* Beau Wilkes – Melanie's and Ashley's lovable son.
* India Wilkes – Ashley's sister. Almost engaged to Stuart Tarleton, she bitterly hates Scarlett for stealing his attention before he is killed at Gettysburg. Lives with Aunt Pittypat after Melanie kicks her out for accusing Scarlett and Ashley of infidelity.
* Honey Wilkes – another sister of India and Ashley. Originally hoped to marry Charles Hamilton until Scarlett marries him; following the war, she marries a man from Mississippi, and moves to his home state with him.
* John Wilkes – Owner of Twelve Oaks Plantation and patriarch of the Wilkes family. Killed during the Civil War.
O'Hara family
* Scarlett O'Hara – The wilful protagonist of the novel, whose travails the novel follows throughout war and reconstruction. She marries Charles Hamilton, Frank Kennedy and Rhett Butler, all the time wishing she was married to Ashley Wilkes instead. She has three children, one from each husband: Wade Hampton Hamilton (son to Charles Hamilton), Ella Lorena Kennedy (daughter to Frank Kennedy) and Eugenia Victoria "Bonnie Blue" Butler (deceased daughter to Rhett Butler).
* Gerald O'Hara – Scarlett's impetuous Irish father.
* Suellen O'Hara – Scarlett's selfish sister.
* Carreen O'Hara – Scarlett's timid, religious sister who, in the end of the story, joins a convent.
* Ellen O'Hara – Scarlett's gracious mother, of French ancestry.
Other characters
* Mammy – Scarlett's nurse from birth; a slave. Cited by Rhett as "the real head of the household." She has a no-nonsense attitude and is outspoken and opinionated. She chastises Scarlett often. She is extremely loyal to the O'Haras, especially Scarlett, whom she cares for like a daughter.
* Prissy – A young slave girl who features in Scarlett's life. She is portrayed as flighty and silly.
* Pork – The O'Hara family's butler, favored by Gerald.
* Dilcey – Pork's wife, a strong, outspoken slave woman of mixed Indian and Black decent, Prissy's mother.
* Charles Hamilton – Melanie's brother, Scarlett's first husband, shy and loving.
* Frank Kennedy – Suellen's former beau, Scarlett's second husband, an older man who only wants peace and quiet. He originally asks for Suellen's hand in marriage, but Scarlett steals him to save Tara. He is portrayed as a pushover who will do anything to appease Scarlett.
* Belle Watling – a brothel madam and prostitute; Rhett is her friend. She is portrayed as a kind-hearted country woman and a loyal confederate. At one point she states she has nursing experience.
* Archie – an ex-convict and former Confederate soldier who is taken in by Melanie. Has a strong disliking for all women, especially Scarlett. The only woman he respects is Melanie.
* Jonas Wilkerson – former overseer of Tara, father of Emmie Slattery's illegitimate baby. After being dismissed because of the aforementioned he eventually becomes employed by the Freedmen's Bureau, where he abuses his position to get back at the O'Haras and becomes rich.
* Emmie Slattery – later wife of Jonas Wilkerson, whom Scarlett blames for her mother's death.
* Will Benteen – Confederate soldier who seeks refuge at Tara and stays on to help with the plantation, in love with Carreen but marries Suellen to stay on Tara, and repair her reputation. He is portrayed as very perceptive and lost half of his leg in the war.
* Aunt Pittypat Hamilton – Charles and Melanie's vaporish aunt who lives in Atlanta.
* Uncle Peter – Aunt Pittypat's houseman and driver, he is extremely loyal to Pittypat.
Setting
* Tara Plantation – The O'Hara home and plantation
* Twelve Oaks – The Wilkes' plantation.
* Peachtree Street – location of Aunt Pittypat's home in Atlanta
The novel opens in April 1861 and ends in the early autumn of 1873.
Politics
The book includes a vivid description of the fall of Atlanta in 1864 and the devastation of war (some of that aspect was missing from the 1939 film). The novel showed considerable historical research. According to her biography, Mitchell herself was ten years old before she learned that the South had lost the war. Mitchell's sweeping narrative of war and loss helped the book win the Pulitzer Prize on May 3, 1937.
An episode in the book dealt with the early Ku Klux Klan. In the immediate aftermath of the War, Scarlett is assaulted by poor Southerners living in shanties, whereupon her former black slave Big Sam saves her life. In response, Scarlett's male friends attempt to make a retaliatory nighttime raid on the encampment. Northern soldiers try to stop the attacks, and Rhett helps Ashley, who is shot, to get help through his prostitute friend Belle. Scarlett's husband Frank is killed. This raid is presented sympathetically as being necessary and justified, while the law-enforcement officers trying to catch the perpetrators are depicted as oppressive Northern occupiers.
Although the Klan is not mentioned in that scene (though Rhett tells Archie to burn the "robes"), the book notes that Scarlett finds the Klan abominable. She believed the men should all just stay at home (she wanted both to be petted for her ordeal and to give the hated Yankees no more reason to tighten martial law, which is bad for her businesses). Rhett is also mentioned to be no great lover of the Klan. At one point, he said that if it were necessary, he would join in an effort to join "society". The novel never explicitly states whether this drastic step was necessary in his view. The local chapter later breaks up under the pressure from Rhett and Ashley.
Scarlett expresses views that were common of the era. Some examples:
* "How stupid negroes were! They never thought of anything unless they were told." — Scarlett thinks to herself, after returning to Tara after the fall of Atlanta.
* "How dared they laugh, the black apes!...She'd like to have them all whipped until the blood ran down...What devils the Yankees were to set them free!" — Scarlett again thinking to herself, seeing free blacks after the war.
* However, she is kind to Pork, her father's trusted manservant. He tells Scarlett that if she were as nice to white people as she is to black, a lot more people would like her.
* She almost loses her temper when the Yankee women say they would never have a black nurse in their house and talk about Uncle Peter, Aunt Pittypat's beloved and loyal servant, as if he were a mule. Scarlett informs them that Uncle Peter is a member of the family, which bewilders the Yankee women and leads them to misinterpret the situation.
* It was mentioned that only one slave was ever whipped at Tara, and that was a stablehand who didn't brush Gerald's horse. The only time Scarlett hit a slave was when Prissy was hysterical.
* Scarlett at one point criticized Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin, saying no one treated their slaves that badly.
Inspirations
As several elements of Gone with the Wind have parallels with Margaret Mitchell's own life, her experiences may have provided some inspiration for the story in context. Mitchell's understanding of life and hardship during the American Civil War, for example, came from elderly relatives and neighbors passing war stories to her generation.
While Margaret Mitchell used to say that her Gone with the Wind characters were not based on real people, modern researchers have found similarities to some of the people in Mitchell's own life as well as to individuals she knew or she heard of. Mitchell's maternal grandmother, Annie Fitzgerald Stephens, was born in 1845; she was the daughter of an Irish immigrant, who owned a large plantation on Tara Road in Clayton County, south of Atlanta, and who married an American woman named Ellen, and had several children, all daughters.
Many researchers believe that the physical brutality and low regard for women exhibited by Rhett Butler was based on Mitchell's first husband, Red Upshaw. She divorced him after she learned he was a bootlegger amid rumors of abuse and infidelity. Some believe he was patterned on the life of George Trenholm.
After a stay at the plantation called The Woodlands, and later Barnsley Gardens, Mitchell may have gotten the inspiration for the dashing scoundrel from Sir Godfrey Barnsley of Adairsville, Georgia.
Belle Watling was based on Lexington, Kentucky, madam Belle Brezing.
Martha Bulloch Roosevelt, the mother of US president Theodore Roosevelt may have been an inspiration for Scarlett O'Hara. Roosevelt biographer David McCullough discovered that Mitchell, as a reporter for The Atlanta Journal, conducted an interview with one of Martha's closest friends and bridesmaid, Evelyn King Baker, then 87. In that interview, she described Martha's physical appearance, beauty, grace, and intelligence in detail. The similarities between Martha and the Scarlett character are striking.
Reception
The sales of Margaret Mitchell's novel in the summer of 1936, at the virtually unprecedented price of three dollars, reached about one million by the end of December. Favorable critics found in the novel and its success an implicit rejection of what one reviewer dismissed as "all the thousands of technical tricks our novelists have been playing with for the past twenty years," while from the ramparts of the critical establishment almost universally male reviewers lamented the book's literary mediocrity and labeled it mere "entertainment." [citation needed]
Symbolism
Over the past years, the novel Gone with the Wind has also been analyzed for its symbolism and treatment of archetypes. For example, Scarlett has been characterized as a heroic figure struggling and attempting to twist life to suit her own personal wishes in society. The land is considered a source of strength, as in the plantation Tara, whose name is almost certainly drawn from the Hill of Tara in Ireland, a mysterious and poorly-understood archeological site that has traditionally been connected to the temporal and/or spiritual authority of the ancient Irish kings. It also represents the permanence of the land in a rapid changing world. Scarlett’s beautiful, perky hats take part of the symbolism as well. They show her feminine side and how she wants nothing more than to be the most attractive woman and the center of attention.
Sequels
Although Mitchell refused to write a sequel to Gone With The Wind, Mitchell's estate authorised Alexandra Ripley to write the novel Scarlett in 1991.
Author Pat Conroy was approached to write a follow-up, but the project was ultimately abandoned.
In 2000, the copyright holders attempted to suppress publication of Alice Randall’s The Wind Done Gone, a book that retold the story from the point of view of the slaves. A federal appeals court denied the plaintiffs an injunction against publication in Suntrust v. Houghton Mifflin (2001), on the basis that the book was parody protected by the First Amendment. The parties subsequently settled out of court to allow the book to be published. After its release, the book became a New York Times bestseller.
In 2002, the copyright holders blocked distribution of an unauthorised sequel published in the U.S, The Winds of Tara by Katherine Pinotti, alleging copyright infringement. The story follows Scarlett as she returns to Tara where a family issue threatens Tara and the family's reputation. In it Scarlett shows just how far she will go to protect her family and her home. The book was immediately removed from bookstores by publisher Xlibris. The book sold in excess of 2,000 copies within 2 weeks before being removed. More recently, in 2008, Australian publisher Fontaine Press re-published "The Winds of Tara" exclusively for their domestic market, avoiding U.S. copyright restrictions.
A second sequel was released in November 2007. The story covers the same time period as Gone with the Wind and is told from Rhett Butler’s perspective – although it begins years before and ends after. Written by Donald McCaig, this novel is titled Rhett Butler's People (2007).
Adaptations
Gone With The Wind has been adapted several times for stage and screen, most famously in the 1939 film starring Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh.
On stage it has been adapted as a musical Scarlett (premiering in 1972). The musical opened in the West End followed by a pre-Broadway tryout in 1973 (with Lesley Ann Warren as Scarlett). The book was again adapted as a musical called Gone With The Wind which premiered at the New London Theatre in 2008 in a production directed by Trevor Nunn.
The Japanese Takarazuka Revue has also adapted the novel into a musical with the same name. The first performance was in 1977, performed by the Moon Troupe. It has been performed several times since by the group, the most recent being in 2004 (performed by the Cosmos Troupe).
There has also been a French musical Autant en Emporte le Vent, based on the book.
Awards
The novel won the 1937 Pulitzer Prize and was adapted into an Academy Award-winning 1939 film of the same name. The book was also adapted during the 1970s into a stage musical Scarlett; there is also a 2008 new musical stage adaptation in London's West End titled Gone With The Wind. It is the only novel by Mitchell published during her lifetime. It took her seven years to write the book and a further eight months to check the thousands of historical and social references. The novel is one of the most popular books of all time, selling more than 30 million copies. Over the years, the novel has also been analyzed for its symbolism and treatment of archetypes.
Time magazine included the novel in its TIME 100 Best English-language Novels from 1923 to 2005.
生平簡介
1900年11月8日，瑪格麗特-米切爾出生於美國佐治亞州亞特蘭大市的一個律師家庭。
她的父親曾經是亞特蘭大市的歷史學會主席。在南北戰爭期間，亞特蘭大曾於1864年落入北方軍將領舒爾曼之手。後來，這便成了亞特蘭大居民熱衷的話題。自孩提時起，瑪格麗特就時時聽到她父親與朋友們，甚至居民之間談論南北戰爭。當26歲的瑪格麗特决定創作一部有關南北戰爭的小說時，亞特蘭大自然就成了小說的背景。
瑪格麗特曾就讀於馬薩諸塞州的史密斯學院。後因母親病逝，傢中需要她來主持傢務，於是不得不中途退學。從1922年起，她開始用自己的昵稱"佩吉"為《亞特蘭大日報》撰稿。在以後的四年中，就有129篇署名的和大量未署名的稿件見諸報端。這些稿件中有一組便是瑪格麗特為過去南方邦聯將領寫的專題報道。
在經歷了一次失敗的婚姻之後，瑪格麗特於1925年與佐治亞熱力公司的廣告部主任約翰·馬施結婚。1926年，由於腿部負傷，瑪格麗特不得不辭去報社的工作。在丈夫的鼓勵下，她開始致力於創作。
瑪格麗特後來對人說，《飄》（《Gone With The Wind》）的寫作占去了她近10年的時間。其實，小說大部分章節的初稿早在1929年就完成了。她首先完成的是小說的最後一章，然後返回來寫前面的章節，但她始終沒有按事件發生的先後順序寫，而是想到哪裏就寫到哪裏。在近10年的時間裏，瑪格麗特很少對她的朋友們提起她的書稿。雖然不少人都知道她在創作，但幾乎無人知道她具體在寫什麽。1935年春，麥剋米倫出版公司的編輯哈羅德·拉瑟姆在全國各地組稿。當他來到亞特蘭大時，偶爾聽說了瑪格麗特寫書的情況。起初，瑪格麗特否認她在寫小說，因為她不相信南方人對南北戰爭的看法能讓北方的出版商感興趣。結果，就在拉瑟姆離開亞特蘭大的前一天，瑪格麗特纔送去了她已經打好的近五英尺厚的手稿。同年7月，麥剋未倫公司决定出版這部小說，並暫定名為《明天是新的一天》。
此後，瑪格麗特花了半年的時間來反復核實小說中所涉及的歷史事件的具體時間和地點。她引用美國詩人歐內斯特-道森的一句詩，將小說的題目改為《隨風而去》(漢譯名為《飄》)。與此同時，麥剋米倫公司也作了大量的宣傳。因此，1936年6月30日，這位無名作傢的"巨著"一經面世，其銷售情況立即打破了美國出版界的多項紀錄：日銷售量最高時為5萬册；前六個月發行了100萬册；第一年200萬册。隨後，小說獲得了1937年普利策奬和美國出版商協會奬。就在小說問世的當年，好萊塢便以5萬美元的代價購得將《飄》改編成電影的權利。由大衛-塞爾茲尼剋執導，剋拉剋·加布爾和維維安-利主演的電影《飄》於1939年問世。

影片簡介 Synopsis
《亂世佳人》（GONE WITH THE WIND）是好萊塢影史上最值得驕傲的一部曠世巨片，影片放映時間長達4小時，觀者如潮。其魅力貫穿整個20世紀，因此有好萊塢“第一巨片”之稱。影片當年耗資400多萬美元，歷時三年半完成，其間數換導演，銀幕上出現了60多位主要演員和9000多名配角演員。在1939年的第12屆奧斯卡奬中一舉奪得八項金像奬，轟動美國影壇。這部耗資巨大，場景豪華，戰爭場面宏大逼真的歷史巨片，以它令人稱道的藝術成就成為美國電影史上一部經典作品，令人百看不厭。
1861年南北戰爭爆發的前夕，塔拉莊園的千金小姐斯佳麗愛上了另一莊園主的兒子艾希禮，但艾希禮卻選擇了自己的表妹——溫柔善良的玫蘭妮為終身伴侶。斯佳麗出於妒恨，搶先嫁給了玫蘭妮的哥哥查爾斯。不久，美國南北戰爭爆發了。艾希禮和查爾斯作為徵兵上了前綫。查爾斯很快就在戰爭中死去了。斯佳麗成了寡婦， 但她內心卻一直熱戀着阿希禮。

在戰爭中，美國南方軍遭到失敗，亞特蘭大城裏擠滿了傷兵。斯佳麗和妹妹玫蘭妮自願加入護士行列照顧傷兵。目睹戰亂帶來的慘狀，任性的斯佳麗成熟了不少。這時，從前綫傳來消息，北方軍快打過來了，不少人傢驚惶地開始逃離傢園，而斯佳麗的母親和兩個妹妹也患病了，斯佳麗十分想要回去塔拉莊園，回到敬愛的母親身邊。不巧玫蘭妮要生孩子了，斯佳麗衹好留下來照顧她。
在北方軍大軍壓境之日，斯佳麗哀求瑞特幫忙護送她和剛生下孩子的玫蘭妮回塔拉莊園。瑞特告訴斯佳麗他不能目睹南方軍潰敗而不去助一臂之力，他要參加南方軍作戰，他留下一把手槍並和斯佳麗擁吻告別。斯佳麗衹好獨自勇敢地駕駛馬車回到塔拉莊園，這時傢裏已被北方軍士兵搶先洗動一空，母親已在她回到傢的前一天病逝，而父親因為受到太大打擊而精神錯亂。
不久，戰爭結束了。生活依然困苦。北方來的統治者要莊園主繳納重稅，斯佳麗在絶望中去亞特蘭大城找瑞特借錢，但得知他已被關進監獄。歸來的途中，斯佳麗遇上了本來要迎娶她妹妹的暴發戶弗蘭剋，為了要重振破産的傢業，她騙取弗蘭剋和自己結了婚。
斯佳麗在弗蘭剋經營的木材廠非法雇用囚犯，並和北方來的商人大做生意。此時，瑞特因用錢賄賂而恢復了自由。兩人偶然碰面，再次展開愛恨交織的關係。
弗蘭剋和艾希禮因加入了反政府的秘密組織，在一次集會時遭北方軍包圍，弗蘭剋中彈死亡，艾希禮負傷逃亡，在瑞特的幫助下回到玫蘭妮身邊。斯佳麗再次成為寡婦。此時，瑞特前來嚮她求婚，她終於與一直愛她的搞私運軍火和糧食致富的瑞特結了婚。婚後，夫妻二人住在亞特蘭大的豪華大宅。一年後，女兒邦妮出生，瑞特把全部感情投註到邦妮身上。斯佳麗偶然翻閱艾希禮的照片被瑞特發現，終於導致了二人感情的破裂。其後，在艾希禮的生日會前夕，斯佳麗與艾阿希禮相見時熱情的擁抱引起旁人非議，但玫蘭妮不相信他們之間有曖昧關係。瑞特可不這樣想。
當斯佳麗告訴瑞特她已經再次懷孕時，瑞特懷疑地問那是誰的孩子？斯佳麗在羞怒之下欲打瑞特，卻不慎滾下樓梯引起流産。瑞特感到內疚，决心同斯佳麗言歸於好，不料就在他倆談話時，小女兒邦妮意外墜馬摔死了。與此同時不幸的事也在另一個家庭裏發生，玫蘭妮終因操勞過度臥病不起。臨終前，她把自己的丈夫艾希禮和兒子托付給斯佳麗，但要求她保守這個秘密，斯佳麗不顧一切撲嚮艾希利的懷中，緊緊擁抱住他，站在一旁的瑞特無法再忍受下去，而轉身離去。面對傷心欲絶毫無反應的艾希禮，斯佳麗終於明白，她愛的艾希禮其實是不存在的，她真正需要的是瑞特。
當斯佳麗趕回傢裏告訴瑞特，她是真正愛他的時候，瑞特已不再相信她。他决心離開斯佳麗，返回老傢去尋找美好的事物，被遺棄的斯佳麗站在濃霧迷漫的院中，想起了父親曾經對她說過的一句話：“世界上唯有土地與明天同在。”她决定守在她的土地上重新創造新的生活，她期盼着美好的明天的到來。

經典片段 Classic clips
瑞特離開斯佳麗後，斯佳麗最後坐在樓梯的臺階上說:“After all， tomorrow is another day。”
斯佳麗在回到被毀的傢園後,在山頭上說:“上帝為我作證,上帝為我作證,北佬休想將我整垮.等熬過了這一關,我决不再忍饑挨餓,也决不再讓我的親人忍饑挨餓了,哪怕讓我去偷,去搶,去殺人.請上帝為我作證,我無論如何都不再忍饑挨餓了!”
點 評 Reviews
有人說這部電影最經典的場面是斯佳麗在戰爭後回到被毀的傢園，在園中手握紅土發誓，無論去偷去搶都不會讓傢人挨餓那段，因為那時她的眼神和表情真的特別震撼人。這樣說我也不反對，因為這實在是一部太經典的片子，經典的場面太多，各人有各人的偏愛。我倒是情願選擇這個：以後，明天就是新的一天了。什麽是愛？什麽是恨？愛和恨可以象兩條永不相交的平行綫，愛和恨也可能衹需要一縷陽光就可以消融。珍惜擁有的人是幸福的，因為我們總是並不確切知道我們需要的到底是什麽。太多的人衹有在失去的時候，纔知道去珍惜。泰戈爾有一句詩我特別喜歡：如果錯過太陽時你流淚了，那麽你也將錯過星星了。歷盡滄桑，你要學會忽略過去。因為——tomorrow is another day。
“不要不辭而別，我的愛人。
我看望了一夜，現在我臉上睡意重重。
衹恐我在睡中把你丟失了。
不要不辭而別，我的愛人。
我驚起伸出雙手去摸觸你，我問自己說：
“這是一個夢麽？"
但願我能用我的心係住你的雙足，緊抱在胸前！
不要不辭而別，我的愛人。”
——泰戈爾《園丁集》
