“I don’t know of any other movie to have that intensity of that love-hate, attraction-repulsion that you have there. That whole series of misoppourtnities and miscues when one is ready for the other, and the other is not ready, it’s just so painful.“ -Molly Haskell

She had become adept at putting unpleasant thoughts out of her mind these days. She had learned to say, “I won’t think of this or that bothersome thought now. I’ll think about it tomorrow.” Generally when tomorrow came, the thought either did not occur at all or it was so attenuated by the delay it was not very troublesome.

Gone with the Wind (1939) dir. Victor Fleming
