Movie Casting What-Ifs by helitzur

Question 8

"The Search For Scarlett" was such a big event that it gets a second question in this quiz. Which actress screen-tested for the part more than anyone else, and nearly convinced her Hollywood neighbor, producer David O. Selznick, to cast her? The questionable status at the time of her years-long relationship with Charlie Chaplin, which was not clearly settled as a legal marriage, may have cost her the role.
