The regal 88-year-old actress is sharp as a tack, and seems to thoroughly enjoy sharing her memories of the production and premiere. Glamorously coiffed and attired, and seated in a chair that might as well be a throne, de Havilland seems as down-to-earth as a grande dame can be, as she discusses her tireless campaign for the part of Melanie, and how her frustration over Jack Warner's reluctance to loan her to Selznick forced her to secretly enlist the help of Warner's wife, Ann, to seal the deal. She also recounts how she devised Melanie's Plain Jane look after bristling at the suggestion the character be dolled up in rouge and ringlets, and how she coaxed a reluctant Gable to tears during a crucial scene. De Havilland tells stories about George Cukor, Victor Fleming, and even tycoon Howard Hughes, and frankly addresses her initial despair over losing the Best Supporting Actress Oscar to Hattie McDaniel.
