At the peak of his career, within an as-yet unmade movie that had already gripped the imagination of millions, Clark Gable was offered a leading role in a film he didn't want to make: Gone With the Wind. It's a woman's picture, he said, and it'll be stolen by George Cukor--that fag, the woman's director--and a bunch of dames. Besides, I hate costume dramas.
Thus began his involvement in what morphed into the most profitable film, adjusted for inflation, in the history of the entertainment industry. Here it is, the inside scoop on everything to do with the most evocative film in the history of filmmaking--its players, who did what to whom, the neuroses, the backbreaking labor, and the curious mix of circumstances that--except for narratives like this from Blood Moon Productions--would have Gone With the Wind.
