I know, I couldn't get the pic to work.
It really doesn't matter what anyone thinks these days, she
was considered a great beauty. She was on every studios wishlist for romantic comedies because of her beauty, they knew she packed in the seats.
Selznick wanted Hepburn when he started casting GWTW, but she was busy with other films. Then he wanted Davis, but Warners wouldn't let her do it unless Selznick hired Errol Flynn as Rhett. When she heard about it, she said there was no way in hell she'd ever do it.
