Clark Gable as Rhett Butler in GWTW |
Gone with the Wind
is a timeless classic, as is its dastardly dashing male lead Clark Gable, this week’s Vintage Harlequin Hottie!
If you don’t already
know the story of GWTW you need to Netflix it pronto (or read the epic novel it was based on).
There’s never been such a seductively attractive bad boy as
Rhett Butler (Clark’s character). He’s a bootlegging badass who decides to make
his fortune on the black market rather than fighting for the Confederate cause
during the American Civil War. He’s got money, influence and power and he’s not
at all what a seemingly respectable girl like Scarlett O’Hara (Vivien Leigh in the movie) should want
in a gentleman caller or a husband. His
devilishly handsome good looks and his wicked charm prove ultimately
irresistible.
Watch the trailer to see Clark in action. Swoooooooon.
Who’s your favourite vintage hottie?
I love that you are talking about this classic. Gone With the Wind is amazing in every way. And, I agree, Clark Gable was quite swoon worthy.
ReplyDeletemaybe its all in the salvador dali-esque mustachio? I dunno, he's just so darn sexy. but yeah GWTW is one of my all time favourites!
ReplyDeleteI can't even count the number of times I've watched Gone with the Wind it's an all time classic just like Clark Gable.
