Two questions: How hard would it be to write the screenplay to Gone with the Wind if you'd never read the Margaret Mitchell book? And how hard would it be to direct Gone with the Wind if you were pulled away from directing The Wizard of Oz to direct this Civil War era epic?

BWW Reviews: Amusing Staging of MOONLIGHT AND MAGNOLIAS by Dramatic License Productions
by Chris Gibson
- Nov 13, 2012
Playwright Ron Hutchinson has written a clever farcical comedy with his play, MOONLIGHT AND MAGNOLIAS, based on an actual event that occurred during the tumultuous production of the film Gone with the Wind. It may be true that producer David O. Selznick took extreme measures in order to get a screenplay produced, but unless you were a fly on the wall, the information presented here can only be considered fodder for laughs, since most of what is known about this occurrence is culled from biographies and Hollywood legend. Dramatic License has put together a splendid evening of entertainment with a fine staging of the fitfully funny work.
