Good, keep it up. Even removing the racism and Confederate apologia from the equation, it’s a boring, melodramatic movie and all the characters are assholes. Exactly. It's state of the art film making for 1939, but it is a dreadful movie. Over the years, I've tried to watch it maybe a half dozen times and never made it past a half hour. I'd suggest one could spend one's time better with this podcast about Hattie McDaniels: www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/2019/10/23/hattie-mcdaniel-six-degrees-of-song-of-the-south-episode-2(I highly endorse that entire podcast and her Six Degrees of Song of the South series is outstanding.)

<shrug> I watched GWTW for the first time all the way through, projected on a big screen with surround sound blahblah, a few years ago...in my early 50s. I liked it, didn't find it boring at all, I can acknowledge it both as a stunning movie and as a product of its racist time. I sure won't wet my diapers if HBO puts disclaimers on it, or even stops showing it....it's not like it's hard to find. Don't these people have more important things to rant about?

Like Elmer Fudd waving around a scythe instead of a gun? They’re on that case as well...

Hm. I'll take "things I could give a fuck less about" for $400, Alex.
Man, these guys suck.

Too bad actual issues aren't solved that fast.
