'film?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'carried away by current' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'away' could be 'gone' (synonyms) and 'gone' is found in the answer.
'by' could be 'with' (I've seen this before) and 'with' is located in the answer.
'current' could be 'in' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'in' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for gone with the wind that I've seen before include "disappeared without trace" , "Taken during the storm" , "Novel" , "Blow off" , "picture" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
