    Just googled it. Astonishing.
    Even during the making of the film, segregation took place. Signs on toilets etc. Clarke Gable was approached by a black actor who mentioned it to him, and was appalled at the situation, then demanded the signs be removed. Or there will be NO Rett Butler.

    Always a bit of a dilemma - are we not allowed to appreciate a good end product because the way it was made doesn't meet what we now consider to be acceptable standards of behaviour.
    No way would the film be made that way and without significant modifications today. and if it was there is no way I would go and watch it.
    Not really my sort of film but if it was I think I could watch it and enjoy it, I think in fact most of the old classics have backgrounds that wouldnt be allowed now
