We will be playing GONE WITH THE WIND later this month in an effort to shake up the fall line-up. Does anyone know where I could find a 35 mm trailer of this film. I would love to start showing it before our coming movies in the next few weeks. I know this is a long shot but any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

I think you'll probably have an easier time taking something from youtube, getting it onto a DVD, and then play that at the appropriate portion of your trailer pack, assuming you have a DVD player and video projector.

with all the rereleases these aren't so rare on ebay. you may have to pay $50-$100 for it though, if one comes up by the time you need it.

I've got a trailer you're welcome to, but unfortunately, it's the 70mm/stereophonic sound re-issue trailer, which you're hopefully not playing.

Over the years there were several types of trailer for GWTW, beginning with a teaser for the original release, and expanding to quite a gaudy production for the 1961 "Civil War Centennial" relesse.
I would think that something downloaded from You Tube would look pretty bad when projected on a large screen. These are bad enough just full screen on a computer.
It's possible that the DVD has one or more of the trailers as supplements. It's worth checking.

If you're getting your 35mm print from Warner Classics, try them. They might have a trailer.
