Terrible how they talk of the dead! I think she was one of the best actresses ever. Look at all the manic embarrassments called "actresses" that we have today. They can't even act and most are drug addicts.... horrible role models of today.

Vivian had it all--beauty, talent--but her mental illness almost destroyed her. There was no treament for it then. But she kept going.  She was very brave.

Vivian suffered her depression probably because she knew she committed adultery, left her husband and only child for Larry O., lived with him, had sex every day,finally they both got married, she lost lots of babies, she tried so hard though, and as the time went on, Larry got tired of her, when she needed him the most.

That woman who imitates Vivian Leigh is NOTHING like the real Vivian and should never have been included in this documentary.

@ApricotsMariska For me Vivienne Leigh is sacred. Despite her ill health. She is The Greatest, Most beautiful, Actress and Movie Star - Ever! She was Pure Class.

[ApricotsMariska]

@Thesaeed23 BTW, when I was speaking of "drug addicts and alcoholics", I was speaking of TODAY'S "entertainers" who have no talent, none can compare to her. I did not ever accuse Vivienne of being a drug addict or alcoholic. Show me the comment where I did so if you're under the impression that I did so. I was sticking up for her. As far as Americans go, no... I do not believe they would take kindly to you calling them "vile". I found it offensive as I have dear friends in the US.

[Thesaeed23]

@ApricotsMariska Oh, by the way - the greatest love of my life is American. They would have found my comment's flippant and funny and would agree that Vivienne was Old England. She was Unique - she could never be emulated and understood by anyone. Not today. Only she knows what took its toll on her. Let her acting and her beauty - speak for her now. Not her ill health!

[Thesaeed23]

@ApricotsMariska I am sorry. Please see my comment below or on the screen of the documentary. I used the word vile because people are so ignorant and judgemental about mental ill health. I was brought up never to speak ill about the dead or people who have ill health. Why can't we just say she was a great actress? Period. Yes she had periods of ill health and her life was cut short. But judge her as an actress and not on her personal life.

[Thesaeed23]

@Thesaeed23 Oh dear! I really am truely sorry! I should have not said that. I think I am just more empathic to people who have suffered from mental ill health. There is alot of sexism towards women who are judged as hysterical, oversexed, fragile and cruel towards others. This documentary implies that these were Vivienne's faults too. I am a feminist. Why can't we just say she suffered from periods of ill health, tuberculosis and bi polar disorder. It was tuberculosis which killed her!

[ApricotsMariska]

@joseph11291 Thank you for your comment to the bitch @malows1234. It's believable how ignorant and judgmental the populace is.

[ApricotsMariska]

@Thesaeed23 With all that said you filthy thick twat, I happen to live in LINCOLNSHIRE ENGLAND! So bring it on you ignorant cow! You seemingly have problems with Americans, so why don't you elaborate for those who are eh? Vile council house, benefit cheque collecting inbreed!

[ApricotsMariska]

@Thesaeed23 I'm not a vile "american" woman you twat! I'm not from the USA. You playing at guessing games here? What exactly is your problem with my comment you thick repulsive asshole! You know NOTHING about Vivienne Leigh you bitch!
