Walter Plunkett design sketches for Vivien Leigh’s role as Scarlett O’Hara in the 1939 film Gone With the Wind
Happy Birthday Vivien Leigh
(November 5, 1913 – 8 July 8, 1967)
“I hope I’ve one thing that Scarlett never had. A sense of humor. I want some joy out of life… And she had one thing I hope I never have. Selfish egotism…Scarlett was a fascinating person whatever she did, but she was never a good person. She was too petty, too self-centered…but one thing about her was admirable. Her courage. She had more than I’ll ever have.”

“Don’t look back Ashley, don’t look back. It’ll drag at your heart until you can’t do anything but look back.”
