Gone With the Wind romanticized the era while Django shone a spotlight on it.
Never saw Django, ever see RagTime?
GWTW had romance and treachery, Scarlet was a harlot in sheeps clothing...

No. I thought my "innuenedo" was "clear".

This is a huge gripe with me. Never apologize for having an unpopular opinion, especially when it's the truth.

First African American to win an academy award was from Gone With the Wind. Hattie McDaniel who played the role of 'Mammy' won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. It was a start. Her performance was amazing.

From their wed site. Cult movies-I can think of some pretty "edgy" cult movies.

Yelp has no complaints about GWTW. But they did show Pretty in pink.

It still isn''t.
But I'm unedumakated, poor and only human.
I think you got me wrong. I think some people complained because the south doesn't like to be reminded of their past, and you said you were with me on that?
Somehow I doubt there are that many people in that city would actually have any problem with the movie

In Memphis?
The only people that would call that insensitive are the younger generation. The movie discriminates against the South.
