Gone With The Wind star Fred Crane has died of complications from diabetes. He was 90.

The retired actor uttered the epic 1939 movie's opening line. He played Brent Tarleton, one of Scarlett O'Hara's boyfriends. Crane only landed a role in the film classic when he accompanied a cousin to an audition, and he wound up playing Superman star George Reeves' twin brother in the movie.

Crane also scored roles in Cisco Kid movie The Gay Amigo, and played a string of TV characters throughout the 1960s. He also hosted a radio show in Los Angeles.

After retiring from showbusiness, Crane, who was married five times, became a businessman and ran guest house Tarleton Oaks in Barnsville, Georgia. (KL/WNWCCNN/CL)
