[The camera zooms in on Café Gratitude, where Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and Irving Thalberg are seated at a corner table with organic coffees in front of them.]

MZ: I must say, “Gone with the Wind” is like the algorithm of love and despair. It’s like coding your way through a Civil War of emotions.

EM: If “Gone with the Wind” is an algorithm, then Scarlett O’Hara is the Martian soil where all kinds of intricate plots can grow. Complicated but full of possibilities.

IT: Ah, Scarlett! Now there’s a woman who knew how to be the star of her own drama. In my time at MGM, we always sought characters who could grab the audience’s attention and never let go.

MZ: Absolutely, Irving. Vivien Leigh’s Scarlett is what makes “Gone with the Wind” a classic. It’s like opening Facebook and finding that one story that makes you stop scrolling.

EM: And Rhett Butler is like the SpaceX Falcon Heavy—impressive, powerful, and leaves a mark wherever he goes.

IT: Ha! I see what you mean. He’s the guy you’d want on the marquee for a blockbuster film. Well, actually, he was on the marquee, and the film was a blockbuster.

MZ: And it’s so fitting that this conversation is taking place at Café Gratitude. The film, like this place, is all about layers of complex experiences, or should I say, complex coffee flavors.

EM: There’s an entire online discourse about the film, and not all of it is positive. Many say it hasn’t aged well, especially its portrayal of the Civil War South. But you can’t deny its impact, similar to how Tesla’s first electric cars shook up the automotive world.

IT: You both have a point. Every film is a product of its time, but the great ones remain part of the cultural conversation. Just like this cafe, it presents a certain idea of life that resonates or conflicts with our present views.

MZ: So true. It’s like when you look at the data for a trending topic on Facebook. It gives you a snapshot of what people care about at that moment, and “Gone with the Wind” certainly did that for its time.

EM: Hm. If Scarlett O’Hara had had access to a Neuralink, she would have been unstoppable. Reading minds? Predicting societal shifts? She’d dominate not just the plantation but maybe even the universe.

IT: And if she had been in one of my MGM productions, she would have been a sensation even beyond what she already was. But you’re right—imagine the endless narratives we could create with today’s technology.

MZ: That’s the power of innovation, whether it’s in film or social networking platforms. You create something that defines an era.

EM: Exactly. Innovate or become a relic. That’s the essence of both technology and storytelling.

IT: And no matter the medium, you need a compelling protagonist, whether it’s a Southern belle or a billionaire tech mogul.

[They all lift their cups of artisanal coffee]

MZ, EM, IT: To compelling protagonists and the stories they tell.

Mark Zuckerberg’s Review on “Gone with the Wind”

Facebook’s algorithms are designed to capture user interest, just as Scarlett O’Hara captures everyone’s attention from her first appearance on screen. Vivien Leigh’s performance is much like a well-curated News Feed, a combination of the engaging, the dramatic, and the deeply personal. If “Gone with the Wind” were released today, its viral coefficient would be through the roof, especially when Scarlett says, “I’ll never be hungry again.” That’s a status update for the ages.

Elon Musk’s Take on “Gone with the Wind”

Imagine launching a Tesla Roadster into space and fitting it with a giant LED screen playing “Gone with the Wind.” Now that’s how you pay homage to a classic! The movie is much like a SpaceX launch: dramatic, ambitious, and full of ups and downs. Scarlett O’Hara is the Falcon Heavy of characters—impressive, powerful, and unforgettable. Rhett Butler, on the other hand, is like the Dragon Capsule—functional, essential but not as flashy. Both essential components to a compelling saga that reaches for the stars.

Irving Thalberg’s Perspective on “Gone with the Wind”

This film is the epitome of what we in the Golden Age of Hollywood strived for: glamour, drama, and characters that could become larger-than-life figures in American culture. Scarlett O’Hara is not just a woman; she’s an experience. She embodies the same kind of stardom we aimed for in MGM’s heyday. If I had been around to see this film made, it would have been the jewel in any studio’s crown. It’s a production that reflects an era, captures the imagination, and lingers in the collective consciousness long after its release.
