I could never like the willful Scarlett - an early feminist.

O poor Scarlett who was her own worst enemy when she had such an ego driving her! A little like a spoilt brat with a smile!

Oh, she did indeed! (But I still find her charming in a cynical sort of way.)

Dare to Charm

I guess it challenges one to go against restrictions...:)

Lovely lines and reminds me of Scarlette O'Hara too!

For me charming lady,Vivian Leigh is remembered, as Scarlett O'Hara through the haiku here!! So many accomplishments to her credit as an actress!!

She was born in Darjeeling, India and spent her early childhood in Bangalore and Ooty in southern India, the region I come from!! So she seems all the more dearer to me!! :)
