About This Quiz

"Gone with the Wind" is one of the most iconic movies of all time, with a cast of characters that are robust and well-developed. Set right before, during and after the American Civil War, the characters in "Gone with the Wind" live lives filled with romance and frivolity, fear and survival, and love and regret. They each face adverse circumstances in their own, unique way. 

Perhaps you're most like Scarlett O'Hara, the spoiled oldest daughter of plantation owner Gerald O'Hara and his wife, Ellen.  Or maybe you're more like Scarlett's love interest and soul mate, Captain Rhett Butler, the dashing and heroic man's man, played in the movie by the handsome Clark Gable.  If you're the person everyone turns to in a crisis,  you might be like the ever-patient and demure Melanie Hamilton. Did you grow up more sheltered than worldly? You might identify with the innocent and naive Prissy, the house servant played by Butterfly McQueen.
