The longest thread ever

I can't watch anything generated by the parent companies of CBS or ABC right now. I'm making a special allowance for espn. Probably because I'm a moral relativist.
 
My Spectrum TV listings have a feature where the listing for one movie points you to other ‘similar’ movies you might like. Not a bad feature I suppose.
Today a Hallmark movie listing pointed me to a movie I’m seriously considering. After all if it’s up Hallmark’s standards…

This is the movie suggested:

Have you seen it before?

Great cinematography; definitely the product of a different era though (to put it politely). Let’s just say that its portrayal of African-Americans is what you would expect for something filmed in 1939. Not for everyone.

With that caveat — it won 10 Academy Awards and featured the first African-American actor to win one (Hattie McDaniel for supporting actress).

I first saw it in a theater in the '50s when I was around 8. I remember the first half hour and the last 10 minutes. Napped through the middle.
I've since seen it on tv several times over the years.



I would note that the movie could qualify for Hallmark if they would just cut out the subplot about the Civil War and keep the Scarlett/Rhett romance. :unsure:
 
To be Hallmark it has to have snow and be in Vermont Throw in some Santa Claus
Wait just a minute!!

There are several weeks of the year that Hallmark doesn't do Christmas movies.

They just advertise the upcoming Christmas movies.

And don't go hating on Hallmark superstars Chris Bearstick and Jessica Normal. Linky

There is big city teacher/business person finds love in small town America and brother/sister of the bride discovers their former sweetheart in the run up to the wedding seasons too.
