Hoang Hai Ninh - "The film directed by Victor Phleming staged the novel of the famous American writer Margaret Mitchell. Novel was published in 1936 and won the Pulitzer Prize in 1937.
Gone with the Wind with the participation of the acting couple Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh as Scarlet O'Hara in the charming and Rett Batler hearts of millions of film fans for more than 60 years.
Themselves have turned into the legendary film about the power of love and fierce of the war. American said that without this film, they can not imagine the American cinema and of course how each person should see this movie even once." (link to entry)
Kiran Goberu - "This is one big book, more than 1000 odd pages, but its worth the challenge. Set in the back drop of American civil war, its the story about a young girl and the choices she made in her life Margaret Mitchell narration is impeccable, she makes you feel as if you are in Scarlet O'Hara's shoes sometimes. its my word you will not stop reading it until you finish...Go with the Wind.

Katrina Schmidt - ""Frankly ... I don't give a damn." I originally loved Gone with the Wind because of the love story. Now I also love it for its historical value. Its a detailed story of the courage of a group of people living in Atlanta during civil war and how they adjusted to their new world. The strength, diversity, and believability of the characters makes this novel particularly memorable. " (link to entry)
