DON'T COMPARE THIS TO THE ORIGINAL

I notice all of the comments are trying to make a (unsuccessful) comparison to GWTW. This I believe is the reason for so many negative comments. They are trying to picture Gable, Howard, Leigh, etc. in the major roles and - it just will not work. Anthony Dalton and Joanne Whatley were not the first choice for the starring roles. The producers wanted Jane Alexander (Dr. Quinn) and Lee Horsley for the leads. Maybe it would have been a different film, had those two been cast.

Having not read the book, I can only view the film on its own merits - which was excellent IMHO. Olivia DeHavilland (Melanie) and Ann Rutherford (Sue-Ellen) were interviewed when the mini-series came out and they both thought that it could have happened just the way it did in the film.
