Scarlett O'Hara may have averred that "tomorrow is another day," but it's pretty much the same old same old Warner has dished up with this new 75th Anniversary release of Gone With the Wind. The film has received several releases thus far on Blu-ray, but for the purposes of this review, the salient comparison is with this Gone with the Wind release. That was the 70th Anniversary edition, like this one housed in an oversized (and in that case plush red velvet) box and with a considerable amount of swag included. This new release boasts what is essentially the same two Blu-ray discs previously released—one containing the film and Rudy Behlmer's commentary, the other stock full of supplements—as well as the flipper DVD that includes the fascinating documentary on MGM, When the Lion Roared. This set omits the CD soundtrack and replaces it with a new, rather sparsely inhabited, Blu-ray disc featuring an pretty shockingly paltry 39 minutes of "new" content (which includes copious clips from the film as well as oft-seen footage of the Atlanta premiere). Since this new set also offers some new swag, it's probably unfair to brand this re-release as purely craven, but it's a shall we say ambitious attempt to part consumers and their money, and probably only rabid completists or those who haven't purchased a prior release will be interested in this newest edition.
