The Scarlett Syndrome


Photobucket 


Scarlett O'Hara, is probably one of the most iconic figures in history, and the most hated. But I don't care what anyone says, Scarlett is one of my favorite characters and people in history. She's a damsel in distress, she's manipulative, she's scared, she's scary, she's beautiful, she's strong, she's stubborn and she is the emulative woman of the old south. 

She's such a striking character and I think even without Melanie Hamilton by her side to balance out her intense nature, she would still be an amazing figure. I wonder who the Scarlett's of today are and if they take as much as from the original as I do. 

Gone With The Wind is one of my favorite films and I can't help but feel more than connected to Scarlett every time I watch it. I can understand and empathize with her attitude and every decision that she makes. She's as petty as she is determined which is so funny and almost refreshing.

Hmm.
