“You know that whatever the dark thing is—that the slightest shadow across your life troubles me so much more than any harm to myself. You’re the only person in the world who can make hideously selfish me love anyone more than I do myself. You know don’t you my Vivien that if I try to save you disappointment or give you happiness it is only selfishness on my part really. Your sorrow is my worst fear…your life my life.”--Laurence Olivier to Vivien Leigh when she wouldn’t tell him she had TB
This is such a lovely, gentle letter. What a person he was.
I think he was a gentle and patient soul, and he seemed shy in real life
I’m so fascinated by him. I really need to see more of his movies.
which ones have you seen so far?
I’ve seen Wuthering Heights and Clash of the Titans (which I didn’t even mean to see for Larry, but the fact he was in it was hilarious and definitely a plus!). Which would you recommend to really appreciate the extent of his work?
