Gone With the Wind

 Gone With the Wind is a movie about Scarlett Ohara's life. It shows how she lived on a farm and the terrible things that happened during the Civil War, as well as the problems she has with her love life.

The way the movie showed Southern life was one way it turned Southern life into a style. It is shown that Ohara's home is big and fancy, and it is in a nice part of the South. The clothes that Scarlet wears are much nicer than the clothes that Mammy and Prissy who are two African American slaves wore. This shows how nice Ohara's life is but it doesn't show how bad things were for slaves in the South.

The slaves were portrayed in the movie in a more stylized way than they were in real life at the time.

Mammy was shown to be a good slave who was also a good caretaker. She helps her owners and acts as a guide for them. She tells Scarlett what to do about how she feels about Ashley Wilkes, She tells her how to deal with the problem of chasing someone who doesn't want her. She tells her to think about her image and what might happen if she does something wrong.

When the war is over, Mammy stays the same by showing that she is a good caregiver. Scarlett has a lot to deal with now that the war is over. Because she lost her house and things are still going crazy she needs a guide, which is what Mammy is in this case. Mama tells her how to deal with the terrible event and reminds her how important family is. She isn't rude to Scarlett and her family because they lost their home and aren't living the beautiful life they had planned; instead, she backs Scarlett up.

To make up for it, I think the directors added some horrible things about the war to make up for the horrible things they left out about slavery.

The advice Scarlett got from her mother helped her become the person she is now that the war is over.

At the start of the movie, Scarlett acts like a typical Southerner she is selfish, doesn't care about other people, and is greedy. She doesn't care about anyone, sometimes not even herself, because she wants Ashley Wilkes to like her.

Her view on life changes as she gets used to her new life during and after the war. In the movie, Tara learns how to value her family and home. There are more important things in her life than a guy who doesn't want her. This makes her build a strong and healthy bond with Rhett.

All of these show that Scarlett, her family, and the slaves who worked for them have grown as people. The hard times she went through shaped these changes. She lost people she cared about and saw a war firsthand which changed her personality and ideals in big ways.

People will have different thoughts on how Rhett Butler should react to the war. People could think that his plan to make money off of the war was either smart or selfish. I think that his action of running a blockade to sell things shows how smart he is with money because it made him a lot of money. This also shows that he can turn a terrible disaster into something good, which some might see as an amazing way to show how smart he is.

When you watch this movie eighty years later, the idea of making money off of the war doesn't seem strange. We live in a time when this action would not be seen as silly. With technology getting better, especially since the movie was made so long ago, it is more common for people to try to make money off of terrible events like war. People today like to get attention or make money by sharing videos of terrible things happening, like wars. 

People's lives can change and they can learn new things about themselves because of the effects of war, as shown in the movie. The movie shows a real-life contrast between what drives people today and what drove people back when the movie was made. The people in the movie change directly over the course of the movie, and society as a whole changes a lot between the time the movie was made and now.
