193817183JLos Angeles: Selznick International Pictures November 8 1938. Original 23 page carbon typescript on onionskin paper bound in blue cardstock studio covers. Fine condition. An historic piece showing the struggles David O. Selznick endured trying the create the best screenplay for his classic film. This manuscript written by Bradford Foote compares and points out the differences between the screenplay written by Sidney Howard with a screenplay version written by Foote. The Ransom Center at the University of Texas which holds the archives of David O. Selznick writes “In October 1938 Selznick sent the Sidney Howard script to two top MGM scriptwriters Lawrence Stallings and Bradbury Foote for help editing. The men under confidentiality had eight days to make their suggestions. Foote’s editing gave the film a happy ending destroying one of the novel’s most emotionally powerful scenes. In Foote’s rewrite Rhett does indeed leave but Mammy thrashes the famous “Tomorrow is another day!†speech telling Scarlett “Never you mind tomorrow honey. This here is today! There goes your man!†The scene dissolves to a shot of a railroad station. Scarlett corners Rhett in the car of a train entreating “Oh Rhett! Life is just beginning for us! Can’t you see it is We’ve both been blind stupid fools! But we’re still young! We can make up for those wasted years! Oh Rhett—let me make them up to you! Please! Please!†He kisses her hands and the scene fades out. Selznick considered this rewrite “awful.†Selznick International Pictures unknown
