[In 2012, reflecting on how her one-minute scene in The Scarlett O'Hara War (1980) changed her career] It's the search for Scarlett O'Hara and at the very end, I show up and take the hat off and it's the burning of Atlanta. I want to do that! Are you kidding me? That's the climax of the whole movie. I want to do this. I don't care about the money. The money doesn't matter to me. Here's what I wanted my agents to do: I wanted them to get me a separate card credit that says "And Introducing Morgan Brittany as Vivien Leigh." Best choice I ever made in my life! Best choice I ever made! Because of that role, when that movie came out, my picture was on the cover of every supplemental TV guide across the country: "Morgan Brittany as Vivien Leigh." People put a name to the face that they had seen for years on Ultra Bright, Levis and Ford commercials. They didn't know who I was, but now they did.
