‘Gone With the Wind’ returning to theatres for 80th anniversary

Los Angeles: One of Hollywood’s all-time classics, “Gone With the Wind” is set to return to the big screen for its 80th anniversary.

The film, that made Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable the favourites of the hopeless romantics around the world, will be screened courtesy of Warner Bros and Fathom Events, EW reported.

“Gone With the Wind” will be screened February 28 and March 3, playing at 1 pm and 6 pm both days at participating locations.

Set against the backdrop of the Civil War and Reconstruction, “Gone With the Wind” is the story of Scarlett O’Hara (Leigh), a headstrong ambitious American southern belle who would go to any length to save her beloved family plantation, Tara.

Complications arise when Rhett Butler (played by Gable), a rogue with a secret heart of gold, who knows he and Scarlett are meant for each other.

Released in 1939, the timeless epic is remembered for its performances, stunning costumes and the sweeping romance.

Tickets for the film’s theatrical return are available now at the Fathom Events website or at participating theatre box offices.
