Since You Went Away was produced by David O. Selznick in 1944, and in addition wrote the screenplay for the film, originally based on the novel by Margaret Buell Wilder, Since You Went Away: Letters to a Soldier from his Wife (1944).

The side effect of this financialisation of media organisations is that the content that…
