Black and white lose one point

Warning: Spoilers
Gone With the Wind. Jezebel. The Toy Wife.

Antebellum fever. Big mansions. Southern belles.

Beautiful ball gowns. African American house putting them on the southern belles.

Frou-Frou was young and frivolous, but friendly and kind. She wanted to go to New Orleans. I don't blame her. I love that place myself.

Rainer did not overact. She was in character, of overdoing, childlike girl-woman character. She married the first man who proposed. Wish I could have seen her wedding.

You can see that not all slaves were happy, as shown in some other films. This was about to change when Emancipation occurred.

Oh, I love a man who kills someone. How heroic. They didn't have much entertainment, lol.
