Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn" is a line from the 1939 film "Gone with the Wind" starring Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh. The line is spoken by Rhett Butler (Gable), as his last words to Scarlett O'Hara (Leigh), in response to her tearful question: "Where shall I go? What shall I do?" Scarlett clings to the hope that she can win him back. This line is also partially spoken by Rhett Butler in Margaret Mitchell's novel "Gone with the Wind", published in 1936, from which the film is derived.
