What an absolutely beautiful lady! Even though she died 9 years before my birth she is probably the most beautiful woman I have ever seen! Laurence Olivier was a very very very very lucky man!

I like this video because she isn’t tied with Larry. and there are some photos of Vivian and Jack. Jack deserves the respect of Vivian’s fans. He never hurts her. His love, patience and kindness gives Vivien so much comfort after her divorce.

Such a both talented but beautiful star. R.I.P. Vivien Leigh.❤🙏🙏🙏xx0.

The best and beautiful actress in history!!!

My favorite actress 🥺❤

love this girl. she is sooo beautiful. One of the most beautiful women i have seen. and gone with the wind was perfection. :)

What an extraordinary life. I don't know if her talent was the only thing that matched her beauty. I think she still rates the single best performance in GWTW in motion picture history. I wish there was treatment for bipolar back then to ensure a less torturous life. I revere her talent as an actress as many did with 2 Oscars and 1 Tony, and 1 BAFTA. She succumbed to a physical and mental illness that plagued her at the age of 53.

she is pure class and grace the world lost and gained so much through her

She used to think of her beauty as a handicap because it would be a deterrent of her acting talent... She was pure class.

What class. What beauty. What style. What a brave woman who struggled with bipolar disorder, as so many of us have. An ICON.

What a classic looking lady! No other actress can meet her quality now. At least, she enjoyed her grandsons before she died. Lovely post. Thank you for share.

She was amazing, and I still watch Gone With The Wind. I have several copies on dvds and vhs.

She is the most beautiful woman in the world.

Wow, too cool, thanks for sharing. How is it that one of the greatest actresses of the London stage gives two of the best screen performances of all time?!? Yesterday, I watched “Streetcar” for like the 12th time….then turned on TCM (here in Panamá), they were showing GWTW! What a treat!

Adorable woman!!!

She's so beautiful!

Maybe the best way to explain one of the major paradoxes of Vivien Leigh's life is to quote from one of the New York paper's review of "Gone with the wind," which, in essence, stated that Miss Leigh is so talented that she need not be so beautiful --- and vice-versa. All of these pictures are wonderful, but I'm especially touched by the one of a more mature "Scarlett" and "Rhett" taken, I'm guessing, in the early-50s. A belated thanks for all the effort you put into searching out and posting these pictures.

Me too. Love it. Feel like they were soul mates but she was besotted with Olivier and Clark was 2 masculine for her. Like she was afraid of a real man.

I was wondering when & where this picture was taken of her & Clark Gable sitting together some years later. They were both more mature looking in this picture at frames 5:03-5:07. Does anybody know what this occasion was?

Thank you for this comprehensive collection . The photos taken with her grandchildren are rarely seen and beautiful. This collection captures her magical beauty.

I love this video and I love Vivien Leigh!!!!

Love!

My Mother met Vivien Leigh , during her tour of Australia. I have asked Mum to repeat the story many times over the years. When they met at a garden party. My Mother said that Vivien was very small , and when she smiled , that she became Scarlett, and she was so beautiful.

Beautiful 🌹🌹🌹🌹💗💗💗💗

A fine little tribute. Thank you!

I just finished reading "FULL SERVICE My Adventures in Hollywood and the Secret Sex Lives of the Stars" by Scotty Bowers w/Lionel Friedberg. According to Mr. Bowers She was indeed a charming, dynamic & very troubled woman.

Sublimely beautiful woman whose life was marred by bipolar disease. My favourite actress. What happened to her daughters three sons? Did any of them have a girl who looked like Vivien???

I believe I am correct in saying she had one daughter from her first marriage with Leigh Holman, Susanne, who is now deceased (2015) and became Mrs. Robin Farrington. Her husband predeceased her in 2002 and they had three children, all boys. Vivien Leigh was a step-mother and had a close relationship with Tarquin Olivier, Sir Laurence's son. Tarquin has spoken of this relationship and I believe you can watch clips on KZread. Tarquin and Suzanne were also close as step brother and sister. I believe Tarquin is in his mid eighties, now.

She was incredibly talented and beautiful, she was in a film that is not mentioned very much with Robert Taylor called Waterloo Bridge. This is one of my favourite films, second to Gone With The Wind. She was remarkable again in this film. God rest her soul.

Thank you very much ♥️

Very nice!

Love the video! You did a fantastic job of editing!

Many are never seen. Where did these come from.

In the picture of Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable at 5:03-5:07, I imagine that Scarlett and Rhett finally came back to each other and got happiness forever :-) I am a huge fan of GWTW.

@ 2:49 - It looks to me like Clark Gable liked her. I think the rumors that they didn't like each other were untrue.

I'm glad to come across someone else who has that opinion. When she won her first Oscar, I have read he wanted to jerk it out of her hands and hit her over the head with it. That's love????? I think, then, he decided consciously or unconsciously he would show her who the great actor was. And that was destructive to her in so many ways. Why was she so obsessed with him?

I also believe that hadn't she not met him she would have pursued a fantastic filming career rather than being absorbed by the idea that she would need to follow in Olivier's steps in theater just to be like him. However their love was also great and passionate and she chose it. She could have done another way but it was her choice and she was happy with it. The problem with artists in general is that they are more self centered that the regular non artist people. It's difficult for them to accept that someone else, close to them, get more light. And after all Vivien Leigh had some of the most prestigious characters in the cinema industry during the golden age of Hollywood, so...

Gosh, I wish they would've gotten together in real life. I love Laurence Olivier but Vivien & Clark were the most beautiful couple in cinema history. Just out of curiosity, how did you know that he visited her? Did you read it in a book? - Yeah, just checked, it's the same outfit & cap that she's wearing in the beginning of the trailer for Waterloo Bridge.

Vivien Leigh once made this comment "Beautiful people make their own rules". (or something similar). This was her down fall. Vivien did what she pleased and you know where that gets you?
