I am a "friend of the family" that owns Boone Hall and I can say categorically it was NOT used in Gone with the Wind. Boone Hall does bear a remarkable resemblance to 12 Oaks, and that is because photographers were sent out to take pictures of various Plantations and Boone Hall was one of those photographed. The person who managed tours there at Boone Hall for many years had a book about GWTW that showed the matte photo used in the scene for the entry to 12 Oaks and you can see the similarity, but no live movie footage was taken at Boone Hall or used in GWTW.
There have been movies , TV shows, and commercials filmed at Boone Hall, most notable being "North and South" (Patrick Swayzee), "Queen" (the sequel to Roots) ( Jamine Guy, Halle Berry) and most recently "The Notebook"
Fans of the TV Show "Army Wives" might find it interesting to know an "Afghan village set" was built on the Polo Field at Boone Hall.
Ryan Seacrest filmed an opening sequence for "American Idol" on the Avenue at Boone Hall when AI was in Charleston to audition contestants.

What movie was filmed in Charleston South Carolina in 1953?
I'm sorry to report that there is no listing for a 1953 movie filmed in Charleston, SC. according to SC film websites. Of course, there are the legends of parts of Gone With the Wind (1939) being filmed on the Battery and Boone Hall, but even that is a lie as supported by the film's production notes. GWTW was entirely produced in California.1941/42: Reap the Wild Wind (John Wayne) was filmed in Charleston.1959: Thunder in Carolina (Rory Calhoun) was filmed in Charleston
