9. There was some significant pay disparity between the stars
Leading man Clark Gable worked for 71 days and made over $120,000 for playing Rhett Butler. Vivien Leigh worked 16 hour days, 6 days a week for 125 days but was only paid $25,000 for playing Scarlett O’Hara. Granted, she didn’t have the star power that Gable had at the time, but that’s still quite a difference in wages. Hattie McDaniel was paid just $450 a week for her Oscar winning supporting role as Mammy.
