I went googling to see who was left from that cast - that sort of thing fascinates me for certain movies ('Wizard Of Oz', 'It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World', for instance), thinking Olivia de Havilland might be the only one.
But the article I found listed also Ann Rutherford (as Scarlett's sister), Mickey Kuhn (played Leslie Howard's son) and a Patrick Curtis. But the imdb.com didn't list him in the cast, so I have no clue who he played.
Anyhoo, it just seems strange that the little girl was outlived by the two adults.....
