4. Gone with the Wind (1939)
Duration: 221 minutes
When romance, war, chance, and destiny are the elements in play for a story you know in for a long ride. And this was exactly the case with Victor Fleming’s adaptation of Margaret Mitchell’s Pulitzer Prize winning novel, which earned him 10 Oscars and critical acclaim. Today, this movie is still epic and Scarlett O’Hara and Rhett Butler’s love story remains one of the best ever told.
