Rip

In Washington Irving's classic story, Rip Van Winkle falls asleep beneath a tree and wakes thirty years later to find that the civil war is over. Watching Gone With the Wind, I fell asleep for thirty years, only to wake and find that, on screen, the civil war was over. And the second act was just starting.

The best thing I can say about it is that I need never fear seeing it again; I'd almost certainly die of old age before it finished. :)
