RALEIGH, N.C. -

Movies illustrating two versions of the South will be shown as the North Carolina Museum of Art presents "The Southern Plantation Revisited."

The Raleigh museum celebrates the 70th anniversary of "Gone With the Wind" with a showing of that movie Friday night at the museum amphitheater. David Selznick, the son of producer David O. Selznick, will introduce the movie.

On Saturday, the museum will show the documentary, "The Making of a Legend," about the making of "Gone With the Wind."

Then the museum will show "Moving Midway." The movie by film critic Godfrey Cheshire uses the relocation of a plantation home in Knightdale that was owned by his mother's family to tell how he learned of a previously unknown African-American branch of his family.

Cheshire is the film's director and narrator.
