Gone with the Wind is a classic, although it views the South through the eyes of 1939 America.

Trivia: Vivian Leigh is actually British. Clarke Gable’s real wife was killed in a flying accident in 1942 while on a War Bonds Drive. Gable then entered the Army Air Corps in the Bomber Command, which was extremely hazardous early in the war. Mostly he made movies for the Air Corps but they did allow him to do some combat flights.

Lesley Howard (Ashley Wilkes) was also British, had served in WWI and was killed in service in WWII.

Train to Pusan is excellent.
