THIS VIDEO IS LATE! My apologies to those who have been waiting for it. Just a little documentary of sorts on our trip to Peachtree on the 4th and the historic hotel we stayed in...honing the Gone with the Wind premiere party.

  • Just to set the record straight, the reception for the premiere did happen at the Georgian Terrace, but the actual screening of the premiere happened at the Loew's Grand a mile or two south and which no longer exists, as it burned in 1978. GWTW did not make its premiere at the Fox.

  • @Philcov I stand corrected. I actually found that out but had forgotten i shouted that out here. Thanks yeah - I was shocked I had thought that so long, when .. if we go back .. makes sense .. Gone With The Wind was an MGM original .. wheres the premiere?? LOEW (of Marcus Loew..MGM Owner)'s chain of theater! Thanks!!

  • Your dad is an inspiration.

    :-)

    Happier than a buzzard on a WHAT? LOL

    Very cool seeing a bit of Hollywood history. Wow, 70 years ago...

    In answer to your question at the end, I can't remember any that would compare - although the place where ST1 took place was impressive in every way.

  • sorry, i don't have any interesting hotel stories to tell. you were happier than a buzzard on a gut wagon? & you could just "squirt" happiness? hmm haven't heard those southernisms from lemonette ;)

  • I love that music. :) Will see you soon?

  • What a great hotel! I could spend hours wandering the halls. The hotel from my Chicago trip was the nicest place Ive ever stayed:-)

  • That is so cool!! Blessings, Ang...btw....call me sweetie!

  • I stayed at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, walked the star lined streets, visited the Manns Chinese theater and Andy Griffith filmed an erpisode of Matlock in the hotel while I was staying there.

    Now it seems the lounge or bar in that hotel is a big hang out for Hollywood stars.

  • thanks for the shoutout in your wonderful video.

    Better late than never and worth the wait. Awesome hotel.
