Portrait of a Marriage (clip 03)

The BBC's story of early 1900's writer and aristocrat, Vita Sackville-West and her marriage to British diplomat Harold Nicolson. Both Vita and Harold were attracted to members of the same sex. Vita is most well known for her liaison with Virginia Woolf; but the only affair that threaten to destroy Vita and Harold's amicable union was Vita's relationship with childhood friend Violet Keppel.

This series of clips are from when Violet decides after years of waiting to make a move on Vita. The third clip has Violet telling Vita to "come here, I want to give you a kiss."

The scenes don't perfectly overlap, but will compromise the majority of the section of the film that ends with Vita and Violet's first kiss.

Imagine this was about 100 years ago...

They did their outing in heavy conditions of life.

They were an example in later life-times of other women...

Read the book and see the whole film to understand this wonderful chosen conversation clips. This both are great actresses...
