  Jane Krakowski of 30 Rock (AP for Breyers/Jason DeCrow)

Breyers ice cream has redreamed some smooth movie classics to publicize their new Smooth & Dreamy ice cream line.

Starting with "Gone with the Wind," "30 Rock" actress Jane Krakowski takes on the role of Scarlett O'Hara in a comedic, 21st-century take that plops Krakowski right into the 1930s film footage.

Seemlessly done thanks to the computer artists crafting the webisode and all the other behind-the-scenes workers recreating costumes, script, hairstyles, etc., it lets Krakowski flow smoothly back and forth from a modern blonde to an 1860s brunette, delivering us a funny, delightful Scarlett O'Hara.

Below you can watch the Smooth & Dreamy "Gone with the Wind" webisode, first in a series, and the making of this webisode.  Be sure to visit the Smooth & Dreamy website for a chance to enter their Dreamy Hollywood Sweepstakes.  The grand-prize winner gets a trip for four to Hollywood with VIP studio tour of Warner Bros., $5,000  cash, a year's supply of Breyers ice cream and more.

The Breyers Smooth & Dreamy website also lets you upload a closeup picture of yourself or anyone to recast either Scarlett or Rhett Buttler in a short take from the webisode.

You can also take a look at all the new all-natural Breyers Smooth & Dreamy flavors with half the fat and one-third the calories of regular ice cream.

Breyers Smooth & Dreamy "Gone with the Wind" stars Jane Krakowski and Clark Gable.
