You're remembering the end of the book, where Scarlett hid in a tower on her property, because the local Irish came and burned down her place for being in league with the English (I think), and because her daughter was possibly evil, too. You know how these things are. I think you're mistaken about Rhett - he was a gunrunner during the war, but was probably a Legitimate Businessman (TM) by then. I can't remember what. Maybe horses? Anyway, the plot required him to be there for Scarlett and their demon child, and so he was.

Timothy Dalton, I feel like he must be a good actor and that I've seen him be a good actor in something, but he was not a good Rhett, and I also think he was a crappy Bond.

Sean Bean must be the bad guy. Colm Meany was some priest guy.

If I found Scarlett on Netflix, I don't know if I'd waste the time hate-watching or not. Even younger uncultured me thought it was no good, back in the day.

Man, it's all a blur. That book was just so *awful*.

Have you ever read 'The Wind Done Gone'? I have no idea if it's a good book or not, it doesn't seem to have a lot of the GWtW storyline to it.

Poor Sean - always the bad guy! Hehehe.

I just...do not think I could force myself to sit through those awful accents for three hours or...however long.

Nope, never read "The Wind Done Gone". I'd heard about it in terms of copyright law, and the legal fight with the Mitchell Estate, but not much aside from that. I'd kind of presumed that meant it wasn't very good but more of a gimmick, although that may not be a fair assessment. But, fair or not, I do find that most of these spin-off books (there's a bunch based on Jane Austen's books as well) trade on the fame of the original source material, and rarely measure up. They seem like legal fanfic AUs.

The reviews seem to be *very* mixed, so it's hard to say. It also seems like the very first of it's kind, being followed by 'Pride and Prejudice and Zombies' and other such titles.

I may have to read it some day.
