A hilarious inside look at the making of Gone With The Wind

Film mogul, David O. Selznick has just shut down production of his dream movie, Gone With The Wind. The script must be rewritten in five days. He summons screenwriter, Ben Hecht, and pulls director, Victor Fleming, off the set of The Wizard of Oz. The perfect guys for the job. But there's one problem. Hecht hasn't read the book. Locked in Selznick's office, subsisting on peanuts and bananas, this veteran team, with Selznick playing every role, creates the movie masterpiece and rewrites Hollywood history. It's a screwball comedy you won't want to miss!
