This is my all-time favorite Leigh/Olivier film! And this is, IMO, the very best scene in this movie. The haunting song, the touching words they are saying to each other and these two are so beautiful together! It gives me chills to hear him ask her that she would never leave him. Larry and Vivien were divine.
later in this film, when emma-vivien heard the news of nelson,s death, and the man becomes to cry..and her expresion never changes but,,,you can feel and read in her face her most intimate feelings..well, i consider vivien..for this scene, in particular ,deserves an oscar nomination. many of my friends agreed with me. her face, in that scene is a MASTER CLASS of acting. carlos
have you the scene where vivien runs from that sofa to the balcony to see nelson waiting her outside??...i have NEVER seen such pasion and love in a movie scene, except in this. the way it was done, with the wind blowing her dress, how she runs, HOW SHE LOOKS to him!!!...my heart is beating quick only just remembering it. churchill said "she,s the most beautiful girl I have ever seen". I agree with him!!!!!!. Carlos (sorry, again, for my english)
Two things. One - in this wonderful movie I heard Danny Boy for the first time. I was like 13 or 14 and cried like a baby. Now I'm 26 and it still breaks my heart in a powerful way...
Two - after all those years I also still can't belive that Vivien and Olivier were really existed. Absolutely gorgeous couple. You can see the love glowing through them. Why their fairytale have ended in such a tragic way? Another example of a brutal reality.
beautiful vivien leigh, she shines in every aspect...it,s amazing such an actress with so few movies, to win 2 oscars, dying so young and to have such an impact. but, vivien is unique..and we are blessed to have her films. never will fade her impact. never..lucas
I'm a romantic fool, and this is one of the most painfully romantic scenes ever put on film. It gives me chills, with the sailors chorus singing "Londonderry Air" in the backgound.
"Now I've kissed you through two centuries." Chill-time!
@edwardjames50 I completely agree with you...It,s the best version I have ever heard of that beauriful song. You are not a fool, just romantic, and sensible to wondeful things. who can be "cold" with a scene like this?- And Vivien is just a dream...a wonderful dream...Carlos
I was looking for the best version of LONDONDERRY AIR. I chose this version....and..OH!!, Vivien,s face!!, that wonderful B&W photography...well... that dialogue..." a beginning of a new life, a life without you..". I CHOOSE EVERYTHING!!. Carlos
DO I?!?!? This is my favourite film and in my opinion the best film ever made!! It is simply wonderful in every single way! Larry and Viv are magnificent!
Wow, give me "I Remember Nelson" over this any day. Nelson wasn't perfect, Hamilton, wasn't, and Nelson's wife wasn't. Also, I give the makeup and clothing credit, but Olivier doesn't really look all that much like Nelson.
I am SOOO in love with this scene that..don´t laugh at me please..but at 12 am, the 31 of December 1999 I kiss my boy friend and I told him the same words Nelson told Emma.".Now I kiss you through two centuries." Sorry my poor english.I LOVE Vivien!! Carlos from Argentina.
I'm not laughing...that's very romantic!! Go you!! Woah! If I could speak another language like you speak English, I'd be very proud of myself!! I LOVE Vivien too!! Thanks for watching!
I know!! Weren't they romantic!! That bit always makes me cry in this movie - when he's dying and is frightened for Emma!! :( Why didn't Hardy help her?? Do you know?
Hardy did not help Emma because of misplaced loyalty to the dreadful Mrs Hamilton and the mores of the time. Nelson gave an arm and an eye and his life, but apparently that was not enough for Hardy whom I have loathed ever since I researched this tragic affair.
His behavior is shameful and I cannot believe this woman was treated so badly, after all she did give him a beautiful baby girl, Honoria.
My pleasure...I can't wait to get this DVD. I looked up the portraits of Nelson and Emma again and cannot believe how attractive they both were, and how ugly Mrs Nelson was! Yikes!
Oh my goodness, I just saw this a couple weeks ago. A great movie. They sure had their themes these old movies, innuendo, scandal, just like today. People sometimes think these are so fluffy, NOT. I like alot of the old movies because there's honor in many of them for God, and others. Those are gone today. Thanks.
do u think u can post the whole film.....i can't find it anywhere......im dying 2 c it......this is the only film i havent seen that stars vivien leigh and laurence olivier
I'm in the process of trying to put it on...but now I'm trying to find a new movie-maker; windows movie maker is lousy!! Any suggestions???? I'm dying to out it on!!!
Oh my goodness!!! Have you seen 21 Days???? Is it good? I REALLY want to see that one!!!!!!
i did see it......i dont remeber what its about cause i saw it when i was 6 years old and none of the local video stores have it.....but i do remember liking it though....so i do recommend it and u can see a clip of it on youtube actually.....just type in 21 days movie
I really think this is my favorite moment in this film. It's so well written, the beautiful music, the splendid B&W photography. I could watch it again and again... Thanks for the post.
1800 is not a new century, it's the last year of the old. Just hold on for another year.

I know that Olivier was heavily made-up, but for some reason
his looks became what I compared all other to.
Those eyes.. . . . . All these years since, he is still the most
handsome man I've ever seen. . .

Check out portraits of the real Hamilton and Lady Emma; they were absolutely beautiful and at least equal Olivier and Leigh.
Hardy let down Nelson by neglecting Emma who died poor and alone.
