We all remember the scene ... Scarlett O'Hara, impoverished from siege of the Northern army during the Civil War needs to impress Rhett Butler so she makes a dress out the green velvet curtains from her beloved Tara.
Carol Burnett did a famous spoof of Gone With the Wind on her television variety show. Watch for Dinah Shore as Melanie and Harvery Korman as "Rat Butler" and in the second clip, the dress made of out of curtains with the curtain rod still attached.
