The year is 1939 and MGM has just started shooting the film version of America's favorite novel, GONE WITH THE WIND. All America feels personally involved. Actresses across the country have tried-out for the role of Scarlett O'Hara and movie-goers can't wait to see Clark Gable play Rhett Butler: the role he was "born to play!" But suddenly (after the burning of Atlanta has already been filmed) David O. Seiznick shuts down the production. He is dissatisfied with both the screenplay and the film's original director. So he barricades the director of THE WIZARD OF OZ (Victor Fleming) and one of Hollywood's finest writers (Ben Hecht) in his office and refuses to let them leave until they've completely re-written the screenplay of GONE WITH THE WIND to his satisfaction. If you've ever seen GONE WITH THE WIND, you will howl at this hilarious (and often touching ) story of the behind-the-scenes birth-pangs of one of America's favorite motion pictures. As the NY Daily NEWS said, "Frankly, my dear, this is one funny play!"
