About Scarlett:
Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler are the silver screen's most celebrated lovers. Now their passionate saga continues with this star-studded, six-hour long epic film based on the best selling sequel to Gone With The Wind.
Producer Robert Halmi spent a record $9million buying the rights to make Scarlett, the novel by Alexandra Ripley which was commissioned by the estate of Margaret Mitchell, writer of Gone with the Wind. As of 2014, a Harris poll found Gone with the Wind to be the second favourite book of American readers, just behind the Bible. More than 30 million copies have been printed worldwide.
A contest was held to determine who would portray Scarlett O'Hara in Scarlett. The search took 2 years involving TV shows and newspaper articles all over the world. Thousands of unknown actresses auditioned before Joanne Whalley-Kilmer (as she was known then) was finally cast.
Synopsis: The story begins...In America's Deep South, the wilful beauty Scarlett O'Hara (Joanne Whalley-Kilmer) fights to regain the love of her estranged husband, Rhett Butler (Timothy Dalton). Just as their passion is rekindled, Scarlett is forced to flee across the Atlantic. Amid the dramatic landscape of Ireland, she falls for the charms of a handsome aristocrat. But the ties that bind her heart to Rhett are too strong to be severed.
