Goofs

Factual errors: The film claims that Louis B. Mayer won the Best Picture Oscar for Gone With the Wind (1939)_ , when it actually went to the film's producer, David O. Selznick. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer distributed the film, but it did not make it, and Louis B. Mayer did not produce it. Mayer was therefore not eligible for an Oscar. See more »
