I posted over in the Tweety thingy that my late mother used to say that
Gone With The Wind wasn’t an especially good movie, but it sold well
because it was a long movie, which meant teenage movie-goers had more time
to make out in the balcony.

So, the subject header here is somewhat misleading. They are not removing
it, they are taking it down until they can replace it with a version that
is not censored or bowdlerized, but includes critical commentary and
historical context. See WaPo piece linked below.
I think this is appropriate and
I find I always like Baptiste more when I see and hear him away from the

explaining or context.
