After being pulled, the classic 1939 film Gone with the Wind will be returning to HBO Max — but this time, the film will feature a disclaimer, as well as an introduction from scholar and university professor Jacqueline Stewart.
Stewart published an op-ed Saturday on CNN, in which she explained why America “can’t run away from ‘Gone with the Wind,’” and argued that the film should still be widely viewed “precisely because of the ongoing, painful patterns of racial injustice and disregard for Black lives.”
“HBO Max will bring ‘Gone with The Wind’ back to its line-up, and when it appears, I will provide an introduction placing the film in its multiple historical contexts,” wrote Stewart.
