More true then than what later happened. Many miseries came outside of war and were caused by persecutions by countries against their own people such as in the 20th century in places such as China's oppression through communism that murdered 40-100 million of its own people and Cambodia's similar events that led to a few million. The Russians murdered dozens of millions in their own country, Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania. Then of course we know all about the fascism of the Nazis against the Jews and other groups, but all that started before WW2 and it certainly continued throughout it until they were defeated.

Arguably one of, if not the most important scene of the film, which sets the stage for the whole unraveling of the South. The scan Rhett gives Charles, so powerful. Rhett was looking at him in this manner because he could see the inexperience, mixed with pride and arrogance, especially in those that have never tasted the true bitterness of war. Rhett tried to explain that there wasn’t one cannon factory within the South along with other important technical details related to warfare tactics, but the blind courage of youth had overtaken Charles, and the room supported him to their detriment.

In the South we're mostly Scots. We had no later immigration after that to speak of, such as Ellis island etc. furthermore the Scots who settled here are from the early-mid 1700s, before Scotland was "Anglicized" and was still a nation of pig/sheep herding Highlander rednecks, so pride was (and is) an intrinsic part of our ethnic culture.

If I remember the book correctly, Rhett had also attended military academy in his youth (though I think he was expelled), so his observation about heavy artillery (cannon) not being produced in the south was on point. Also, Ashely and the other men here in this scene who were angry at Rhett’s observations were likely cavalry or foot soldiers when they enlisted. Later, at the end of the war when Rhett did enlist, he was in the artillery from his military academy training.

I agree with Cheryl. The consistent moral compass throughout the novels were Mammy and Melanie. I'd even throw in Ellen O'Hara but she passed on. Rhett was not a 'morale' person. But I think it was due to his life experience. Imo, he secretly was an idealist at heart but he was also a cynical, bitter and hardened person...From time to time, I could see Rhett's 'kind' nature peeked, but he always tried to 'cover' things up because of how he's hurt in the past and he's constantly being hurt 'emotionally' by being with Scarlett whom he believed to not care about him...

Untrue. Once the South had seceded, the North had to suppress the rebellion by force of arms. In the face of Northern invasion, the South could either defend it independence or just come back to the Union. Obviously they were not going to do the latter. The South did actively seek recognition and military aif from both France and Britain but, although they were able to buy weapons and ammunition from those countries, on the sly, recognition and intervention never happened.

The North understood that the South meant to cut off the relief valve for their industrializing society by bringing slavery to the northern and central Plains. It also understood that the Dred Scott decision was a tremendous infringement on their right to keep slavery out of their own states, let alone the Territories. The North deliberately failed to understand (i. e. knew, but did not admit to itself) that it was profiting very nicely from treating the South as the British treated the Indians: the elite was allowed to preside over the sale of slave-produced raw materials at low prices, then exported finished goods at high prices thanks to tariffs. The South misunderstood more. First, they thought that the North would just sit there and let Fort Sumter be bombed. Second, they thought that the North would make poorer fighters and remain poor fighters...Mary Chesnut's diary notes that the South did a very good job of teaching the North how to fight. Third, they mistook the cool, restrained nature of Northerners for unwillingness to fight: the unwilling fighter will not only defend himself, but he'll be pissed that he was made to fight and fight all the harder! Finally, one "gentleman" fighter was not worth three of the "rabble", and if that were the case, an infinite supply of arms and other goods, a larger population and a potential fifth column four million strong make up the difference nicely.

Not really. Lee and Longstreet were both very capable, but so were Grant, Sherman, and Meade. Stuart and the heavily worshipped Thomas Jackson were both very hit-or-miss: they pulled off great tactics in some campaigns, and completely screwed the pooch in others. Grant and Sherman were the pioneers of a new way of warfare and basically set the standard for how WWI would eventually be fought.

Clark Gable did not allow his personages to be themselves, he always Gable them. Why did he not even try to speak with Southern accents in the Gone With The Wind movie?

@@jamesalexander5623 It is no more racist because of "slavery" than Shakespeare's Julius Caesar (the Romans had slavery as well), or Zulu Dawn, which was favorable to the Zulus, (who practiced slavery). Writing about Southerners in the Civil War era isn't racist, no matter how much modern people suffering from insecurity and desperately looking for some excuse to engage in moral preening may wish it to be. As for Southerners being fond of the South: gee, what a concept! While the book is one of the greatest works from the 20th century, I would fault Mitchell for her one-dimensional portrayal of Northerners: with two exceptions, every "Yankee" involved in the story is either corrupt or downright reprehensible. However, that was how the characters in the book saw them, so be it. It's called literature.
