| The film won seven other Oscars that night, including Best Director for Victor Fleming, Best Actress for Vivien Leigh, and Best Supporting Actress for Hattie McDaniel, making her the first Black person to win an Academy Award. Other big winners that night included Robert Donat, who was named Best Actor for his performance in Goodbye, Mr. Chips, and Thomas Mitchell, whose turn in Stagecoach earned him the Best Supporting Actor statuette. The Wizard of Oz, also directed by Fleming in one of the most notable years a director has ever had, won two Oscars: Best Original Score and Best Original Song for "Over the Rainbow." Following the early reveal, the academy stopped giving out the winners early and started the sealed-envelope tradition that continues to this day. | |

Adjusted for inflation, "Gone With the Wind" is still the highest-grossing film of all time. | |||||||||
| As of now, the highest-grossing film of all time is James Cameron's Avatar, which retook the box-office crown from Avengers: Endgame after its most recent rerelease and has made a total of $2.9 billion. (No. 3 and No. 4 on the list are Avatar: The Way of Water and Titanic, also directed by Cameron.) But that's only when you don't account for inflation. When you do, Gone With the Wind clears the competition with around $4.6 billion — nearly 10 times its unadjusted gross of around $400 million. It's benefited from a number of theatrical rereleases over the decades, but that doesn't change the fact that just under 60 million people — nearly half the U.S. population at the time — purchased a ticket to Gone With the Wind within four years of its release. | |||||||||
