Cool quiz, but two small problems. On the question regarding Scarlett’s children, the third name should be Eugenie Victoria (the nickname was Bonnie Blue). And the on the last question, it was not until Scarlett arrived at Tara that she learned her Mother had died. She decided to return home for her own safety because the Rebels were leaving Atlanta to the Yankees (but she had heard her Mother was sick and was worried for her).

In terms of Scarlett’s children, the one in the movie version is Eugenia Victoria. She was nicknamed Bonnie by Rhett because Melanie said the baby girl’s eyes were “As blue as the Bonnie Blue flag.”
And Scarlet didn’t know that her mother had died when she arrived back at Tara. Hence the shock and freaking out.

It’s actually David O. Selznick, not O’Selznick.
Only 5/10 for me.
