	Gentility and Gender in Margaret Mitchell's Gone With the Wind (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Scarlett and Melanie, Mitchell's two main female characters, are polar opposites: Melanie is a lady, Scarlett is not; Melanie is traditionally feminine, while Scarlett adheres to a traditionally masculine way of thinking and acting.
		Scarlett, though cast out by everyone else, is treated by Melanie with "love and outspoken trust" when suspected of having an affair with Ashley; Melanie believes Ashley and Scarlett love each other only as brother and sister, to the contrary of what she has been told (853).
		This manner, this grasping of traditions, is still excusable in Melanie, as she is, after all, a woman, and made strong through the "inner grace" she possesses as a woman.

	New Georgia Encyclopedia: Gone With the Wind (Film)
		The 1939 adaptation of Margaret Mitchell's 1936 novel, produced by David O. Selznick, featured such well-known actors as Clark Gable (Rhett Butler), Olivia de Havilland (Melanie Wilkes), and Leslie Howard (Ashley Wilkes), and made a star of actress Vivien Leigh (Scarlett O'Hara).
		The novel's racial attitudes were softened—offensive language and references to the Ku Klux Klan were removed, and the sexual overtones of the attack on Scarlett in the freedmen's settlement were deleted.
		Such events as the start of the war, Gettysburg, the siege of Atlanta, Sherman's march through Georgia, and Reconstruction provide a historical background for the main focus—Scarlett O'Hara, her unrequited love for Ashley Wilkes, and her marriages, especially her turbulent relationship with her third husband, Rhett Butler.

	Gone with the Wind (1939) Starring: Clark Gable, Vivien Leigh, Leslie Howard - Three Movie Buffs Review
		Melanie gives birth to Ashley's child on the day the city falls to the Yankees, but of course Rhett shows up in time to save the day.
		And again, when Rhett cries to Mammy when Scarlett is injured, or again when Scarlett finally comes to her senses and confesses her love to Rhett only to be told, in the film's most legendary line, 'Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn.' This is a movie that tugs at the emotions.
		Howard is not at all how I pictured the Ashley Wilkes from the original novel, where he is described as being, the best shot, best horsemen, and able to drink with the best of them....only he chooses not to do those things, but instead pursues more civilized hobbies.

		Vivien Leigh stars as Scarlett O'Hara, Clark Gable as Rhett Butler, Olivia de Havilland as Melanie Wilkes and Leslie Howard as Ashley Wilkes.
		It chronicles a decade -- including the Civil War and the fall of Atlanta -- in the life of Scarlett O'Hara, as she lusts after the unattainable Southern gentleman Ashley Wilkes.
		It also is intriguing to watch Olivia de Havilland as the impossibly good Melanie; it is a performance of surprising thoughtfulness, one that meshes perfectly with the wishy-washy Ashley Wilkes of Leslie Howard.
