Not sure if it counts as Gaslighting, but one person is very manipulative.

The main character is an alcoholic during part of the story, which is explicit in the book, but more implied in the movie

I find that scene very disturbing. It looked real to me. I'm particularly worried because during the time this film was made I don't imagine there was much concern about the wellbeing of animals. I hesitate rewatching Gone with the wind for this reason. I love the rest of it, but I can't cope with that scene with the horse. I wish someone would be able to set my mind at rest about what really happened with the poor horse. I can't watch without knowing...

The main character tries to fight off her husband when he informs her of his intent to have his way with her whether she likes it or not. The scene is often thought of as romantic but I found it upsetting.

One woman is anxious and frustrated about never being as skinny as she was before giving birth (and lists it as a reason for never wanting more than one child).

It’s more heartwarming and you don’t actually see the baby being born.

While the movie doesn't use the n-word, racism pervades the plot and misrepresents the horrors of slavery.

The movie itself is Confederate propaganda, and has racist depictions and treatments.

The context behind the famous “frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn!” Line is Rhett telling Scarlet that he doesn’t care how she’ll do without him

There's a war going on, so quite a bit of gun violence/shooting. Someone also come home after being shot elsewhere.
