Picture Entailed Million
Man-Hours Human Labor
One million man-hours Is the approximate
amount of human labor
Involved in the Te<S?nicolor production
of "Gone with the Wind"
fllmlzntlon of the celebrated novel
Monday at the Dixie Theatre.
Manpower, of course, Isn't metered
out like mechanical hortepower,
and the estimate of a million man
hours doesn't mean that a million
man ? and women ?' coi:' I have
made the picture in an hour.
Nor aoes it aiguify that Producer
David O. Svlzuick. working ulout
1-lglu liouts a day. Sly days u year,
couid have made* the picture in 40t>
years. But it does given an idea of
the magnitude of what Is, in many
respects, the most tremendous single
pioduct.ou task ever attempted
.it the motion picture Industry.
' 'i lie figure of a million mun-hours
Wus reached b>' adding togeluei' the
total thne for all pecsous employed
on the picture, tuvludiug tile stars.
Clark Gable. Vivien Leigh, * Leslie
Howard and Olivia de llavlland; the
director. Victor Fleming, and nearly
5000 other 'persons who huve
worked since the picture began.
Lengthy Preparation.^
Of this time, accordiug to Rayinoud
A. Klune. production manager,
L'50,000 man-hours -were . accounted
as preparation, and 750.000
is actual production.
These United States fought - eight
j ears to toss off the tyruunny of a
British king, and' the Civil War it^eft,
some e voting scenes ^t'orrt
which are seen in "Gone with the
Wiiu'd", lasted more titan four years,
with three million engaged and 600,
000 killed.
Such historic eventB as these occupied
the attention of millions of
men fof billions of hours. Vet if sta
tlsltes of the Selznick masterpiece
are translated into "fan-hours" ?
the number of persona who will see
the picture multiplied by time if
will take them ? the figures assume,
if ttot those' astronomical pro
portions, at least geographical mag-,
nltude..
