Based on Margaret Mitchell’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel about love in the Old South during the Civil War era, the motion picture is among the most popular and widely known films. Here, however, are some facts that might surprise you. Selecting Scarlett. More than 1,400 actresses interviewed for the role of heroine Scarlett O’Hara. Joan Crawford, Katharine Hepburn and Bette Davis were among the most famous ones considered before Vivien Leigh was cast. Breaking barriers. Hattie McDaniel’s portrayal of lovable, yet no-nonsense servant Mammy not only captured the hearts of viewers, but earned McDaniel an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. She was the first African-American to win an Oscar. Famous facade. Tara, the fictional plantation of the O’Hara family, is still one of the most requested tourist attractions in Atlanta. Visitors are disappointed to learn that the stately home doesn’t exist and was only a stage set built on a Hollywood studio lot. Hot Cocoa and Health A cup or two of cocoa each day may do more than ward off a chill. Cocoa is rich in antioxidants, potassium, iron and other nutrients. Hot chocolate is also chock-full of flavonoids, powerful compounds that are being studied for their link to fighting cancer, preventing stroke and delaying dementia and other cognitive problems. Plus, sipping this sweet treat can make you feel better—not only because the drink is delicious, but also because it raises the body’s levels of serotonin, which produces endorphins and can banish a bad mood. A Classic Talent Dec. 13 is the birthday of Dick Van Dyke, the actor known for movie classics such as “Mary Poppins” and “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang” and the TV series “The Dick Van Dyke Show” and “Diagnosis: Murder.” Van Dyke was born in West Plains, Mo., in 1925.

A cross between a sweet orange and a mandarin, this easy-to-peel variety of citrus fruit is a good source of vitamin C, as well as fiber, calcium and other essential nutrients, for just 35 calories. Clementines are in season from late November through January, making them a popular holiday treat. Popcorn Pick: ‘Citizen Kane’ Often hailed as one of the greatest films ever made, “Citizen Kane” was shot using many techniques in storytelling, cinematography and sound that were revolutionary for its time. The 1941 drama was co-written, produced and directed by its star, Orson Welles—in his screen debut at just age 25. The film traces the rags-to-riches story of newspaper tycoon Charles Foster Kane, a character that was loosely based on real-life American publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst. The movie earned nine Oscar nominations and won the award for best screenplay. 6 8:30 Crazy Maze 9:30 Newspaper & Coffee Club (dining Room) 12:00 Daily Chronicles 1:15 Play Games (activity Room) 3:00 S.
