I think it's time for Hollywood to dump the remakes...they just don't work!

I would like to see "The Help" now since it has some historical points of view and how The South was once backwards!

I think that's why I like "Gone with the Wind", a film where we see Southerners acting backwards, but we have a Gentleman with all heart named Rhett Butler and this bitch named Scarlett O'Hara who wants everything her way...no wonder Rhett left her and told her "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn"!
