She was wonderful as Ashley Wilkes sister India.
I wondered why she never became a big star but IMDB said the only movie she ever did was GWTW.

Everyone in that movie is so indelible.
I'm amazed it was her only film. She left a big impression.

I'm almost sure they found her in Atlanta during that crazy "search for Scarlett" campaign.
I think I remember reading that. Maybe after filming ended, she just packed her bags and went back home and had a life.
But what an adventure for her! And she did herself proud. It's one of those films where I wouldn't want to see anyone else in any of the roles... right down to the "one-liner walk-ons."
