Synopsis: | Vivien Leigh is holding her last press conference in a theatre, taking questions from members of the press. We learn her thoughts on the five stages of an actress' professional life as well as the specifics of her own career, including all the juicy details: her rise to fame; her love life in and out of Laurence Olivier's arms; behind-the-scenes looks at A Streetcar Named Desire and Gone With the Wind; and the physical and mental illnesses that led to terrible difficulties during the making of Elephant Walk and her eventual replacement with Elizabeth Taylor. A living biography of a fading star, VIVIEN LEIGH: THE LAST PRESS CONFERENCE captures an image of a funny, frank performer who continues to fascinate. | |||||
