Rate one of the biggest studio directors from the 1900's.

He only directed one scene in Gone With The Wind, so it's really not his project, but I figure it should be rated anyway.

I have A Star is Born and The Women to view still, though.

Holiday - 7 (the drunk brother annoys me, as this era of Hollywood is so facile about the ills of drinking)
The Philadelphia Story - 8 (I dislike Hepburn, but Grant and Stewart are awesome together)
Born Yesterday - 6
A Star is Born - 7
My Fair Lady - 6

So are we rating just that scene? or the movie as a whole?

Ha. We'll go with the movie as a whole.

I'll wait for the Victor Fleming consensus for GWTW.

We'll do Victor Fleming eventually, so it seems silly to do GWTW. I'll exclude it.

Gone With the Wind (1939) [3]
The Philidelphia Story (1940) [6]

I need to rewatch A Star Is Born. Other than that, the only film of his I really want to see is Sylvia Scarlett.

If Dinner at Eight is what I remember it being, it was insufferable.

Dinner at Eight - 3
Little Women - 7
Camille - 6
The Women - 8
The Philadelphia Story - 9
Gaslight - 8
Adam's Rib - 9
Pat and Mike - 6
A Star Is Born - 7
My Fair Lady - 7

This is not really my rating system, but it seems to be the rage above, so I tailored.

Only watched half of Adam's Rib but I didn't like it (the half I saw was roughly a 4 or so).
