MELANIE'S DEATH SCENE
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 вер 2024
- Melanie was cautioned to not become pregnant again after the life threatening birth of her son, Beau. She longed so for another child that she foolishly braved ahead and conceived. She died from complications of this pregnancy. Staying up for hours on end to comfort a distraught Rhett after Bonnie’s death undoubtedly added to her physical strain.
Rest in piece Olivia. Ironic how Melanie passed in the movie but outlived the cast in real life. She will live on through the legacy of her movies. RIP. 1st July 1916 - 25th July 2020🕊
I was thinking that too. She truly was a legend.
See my comment now. Olivia, and her sister Joan Fontaine, live on the in the photos and videos and films on my new group page for the two of them. It is "Together At Last" ~ The Olivia de Havilland And Joan Fontaine Fan Page. Come join it!
Scarlett both disdained and admired Melly but knew inside that she was her most sincere friend
I'd love to have a friend like Melanie. All heart, always ready to support the people in need, and someone you can trust.
Wouldn't we all. It's the 21st century. These type of beautiful, genuine people hardly exist anymore ESPECIALLY in the south. My mother may have been one of the last.
In tears everytime watching this scene. 😭 😭 A good hearted woman who cared for others. Glad scarlett finally realised Melanie was a true friend to her. Well played Olivia! 👏 RIP 🙏
Same here. I about fall apart during this scene every time. It got even more emotional once my mom passed away. Her favorite movie and favorite character. Whenever I reach this moment I try to distract myself by going to the kitchen or bathroom lol
Who’s here after hearing of Dame Olivia’s death? It makes watching this ten times more heartbreaking, Olivia DeHavilland was so wonderful in so many ways! R.I.P.
So sad to hear that... I've never been such a great fan of classic Hollywood, but I know she was a great actress. Her performance in this movie is just an example. RIP.
In the book, Scarlett strived to be like her mother. Yet it was Melanie that was most like Ellen.
You know Scarlett’s feelings toward Melanie are exactly like how most sisters feel about each other. She was jealous of Melanie and viewed her as a rival yet at the same time she loved her and would not hesitate to help her if she needed it. That’s how my sister and I are.
I am sad to hear that! Life is too short for that bullcrap! even if you have to be the big person patch it up.
Feels weird now... RIP Dame Olivia de Havilland
Now everyone in this movie is gone with the wind with Olivia's passing.
But tomorrow is another day!
This is without a doubt one the most heartbreaking scenes in movie history. Probably holds the top spot on my list. It kills me every time I get to this part, or hear this piece of music from the soundtrack. I always dread starting the movie because I know I'm coming to this moment eventually lol
RIP Miss Melly Olivia de Havilland
Melanie is gone now as well.
And Melanie is still alive today! Olivia di Havilland is over 100.
Dave Glo, so nice to know there's another soul out there interested in viewing this heartwrenching scene between these two magnificent actresses. Ms. de Havilland will be 104 on July 1st. It boggles the mind.
she's 104 now
One hundred and four, and still riding a trike! Long live the queen! Olivia de Havilland. And on behalf of all the Gone with the Wind fans, thanks Olivia, for the greatest movie ever made!
Well, not anymore... RIP Olivia
No. She died☠
I watched this when I was a little kid with my beloved grandparents who loved the movie and thought she actually died. I thought, "They must have paid her well!"
RIP Miss Melly 💜
Heartbreaking...
she died in the movie but in real life olivia lived till she was 104 years old.
I think it was at this moment that Scarlett realized that Melanie was the best friend she ever had. I mean think about it, even when Scarlett was a complete jerk to her Melanie never judged her or condemned her. She loved Scarlett in spite of all her faults and even defended her. Melanie was one of those rare people who could love a person unconditionally for who they were even if they never changed or showed the same love back to her.
Amazing relationship development - from “Melanie it’s all your fault, I hate you!” to “I’ll promise you anything.”
RIP Olivia.
RIP Olivia
RIP Olivia de Havilland 😔😔😭😭
Why does she say "never let him know"?
What doesnt she want Ashleigh to know?
Because Ashleigh is a proud southern man. Knowing Melanie asked Scarlett to do this could make him feel like she didn't have complete confidence in him or he wasn't strong enough to make it without her. You DON'T kill a southern gentleman's pride lol
I've always wondered what the "complications from pregnancy " that she died from, actually were. And if its something that would be no big deal if it happened now vs the 1860s. Know what I mean? & it was something they knew enough about back then, to tell her NOT to have another child bc its life threatening. 🤔 so was she like, bleeding out slowly or something? Idk enough about deadly birth complications but I do know they are super real & still happen to this day...but it's just extremely rare now especially compared to hundreds of years ago. I'll probably just Google it.
One of the complications from pregnancy is a ruptured tubal pregnancy. Once the Fallopian tube bursts, surgery is required to save the mother's life. If there is no intervention, she will bleed to death internally. I believe that is what happened to Melanie Wilkes.
I think Olivia was in her life the same as Melanie
I have created a loving tribute page for Olivia and her sister, Joan. It is "Together At Last" ~The Olivia de Havilland And Joan Fontaine Fan Page. It is the first page that honors the two talented actress sisters. Come join it!
