She was a multi talented actress but to us southerners british born vivien leigh is forever immortalized in her portrayal of two southern belles- scarlett o’hara and blanche dubois

I've always wondered how her illness affected these performances. It's tempting to think that her acting was enhanced by her insight into the dark regions of life. All actors are a little eccentric to a degree. My favorite is Waterloo Bridge.

Επαιξε τελεια με τον Μαρλον ,κριμα που του στερησαν το οσκαρ ηταν αδικο ηταν ενας εξισου μεγαλος ηθοποιος και ενας πανεμορφος ανδρας.....Ενα εκρηκτικο δίδυμο

A brilliant actress, a generational talent

Al di sopra di qualsiasi commento......che non Le renderebbe mai giustizia

I think my mother was Blanche Dubois.

Must been terrible for someone under a bad treatment for bipolar condition to perform this for 300 times , such extreme range of emotions

Q escenas !!!! Terribles!!!

"Who ever you are... I've always depended on the kindness of strangers" . 👌

Seguramente el talento y la belleza vayan más unidos de lo que parece. Aunque no para todas las personas.

Stop bothering my Blanche!!!

La mejor Mary Dubois.❤❤

Deliberate cruelty is not forgettable ❤

I based Maggie in death of hot sauce salesman on her performance thank you for inspiring me

You know the sailor in beginning is Ashley and Melanie’s son beau lol

Imagine if she lived longer.

Look, at how the White women cower at his anger. Blk. women will not do that. She'll teams up. One main reason she is so heated and feared.

Blanche felt like I would feel in a homeless camp. Even though no better than them the feelings still stays. Can't help it. Remember how much I had.

History will rank SC her greatest performance.

Never more beautiful than in WB

The scene where she is confronted by Mitch is the greatest scene in film history

She is the greatest actress who ever lived. She won 2 Oscars for the greatest performances ever given. She was a highly accomplished stage actress, and won a Tony almost as an afterthought. Her beauty and talent were off the charts

So wonderful Vivien leigh ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

She had the most beautiful and expressive eyes. 1 of my favourites.

Amazing and beautiful actress 🌹

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I was so madly in love with her as a child I wanted to be Scarlet OHara until I was in my 20s.

ВИВЬЕН ЛИ ПРЕКРАСНО СЫГРАЛА СУМАШЕСТВИЕ СВОЕЙ ГЕРОИНИ !

Vivian Leigh was one of the most beautiful actresses of 20th century and extremly talented. Loved her...

the most perfect performance I have even seen. So incredibly nuanced, brave and perceptive. The way she varies the tone of her voice and the use of body language is sublime. Bravo Vivien 👑

Best performance ever. By an actress or an actor.

מאוד אהבתי אותה, בכל הסרטים. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I watched this first when I was around 16. I didn't get a proper analysis on Blanche's condition all the years but now I think I can make assumptions. First off, Blanche suffers from chronic anxiety and is OCD. Apart from this, she is mentally healthy. Bipolar claims are bogus. Of course, living in her delusions eventually leads to her breakdown when she could've pragmatic. Mitch's insult caused her first breakdown but she was still in her senses. Stanley's rape was the ultimate nail on the coffin and the trauma caused her to regress further into her delusions. Yet, she seems to be in her senses. She is wary of Stanley and Mitch in the final scene. Her delusions are strong yet, she is shocked to see the doctor which again implies that she still some of her senses with her. What follows is not a mental breakdown, it's a nervous breakdown. It's wonderfully portrayed in this film version (the original had her grab the paper lantern with a screech). The direction and acting is impeccable. By the flow of the story, I think what Tennessee Williams really needed was this version instead. Blanche is having an ultimate breakdown. Then she is led away by the doctor after he wins her trust. By the way the story goes, I am certain against what most people think in the contrary, that Blanche won't be committed to a lifelong stint at the mental institution rather, it will be a temporary spell following the much needed counselling (which she wouldn't have received else where) and treatment, she'd be well and return home. She seemed open to ideas so probably, she could get rid of her antebellum delusions and pursue art, poetry and literature like she talked about. I know treatment those days were harsh but as pointed out, she never had a proper mental illness to begin with. There was just a lot of trauma in her life which she had to heal from.

Best actress of all time in the best movie of alll time. Im from Austria, im here in the year 2022, nearly 83 years after it came out!

So talented, and so beautiful. In Caesar and Cleopatra, as a young Cleopatra, is was outstanding

Blanche has to be one of the saddest and most despicable characters ever.

1:50 that scene itself was Oscar worthy. Her voice changed completely. Just amazing.

Beautiful and a great actress ♥️♥️♥️♥️

What a woman, what a script.

Brilliant performance! The perfect Blanche Dubois. Academy award winner.

A masterpiece...called desire...!!! They were real actors..!!!

she s my modele in life, the person i respect the most with my parents.

Vivien Leigh was probably a dream come true for one of the greatest writers of the 20th Century.

I read this & saw this in college & it went right over my head. It's a shame that wisdom doesn't come along until it's too late to matter.

the definite best part that no one can get correct is that she doesn't have the strongest southern accent. Back in the day it was the English tongue mixed with the new reminiscents of american talk. this was the accent that we had!

The older I get, the more incredible, riveting, sad, layered and moving I find Vivien's performance to be.

I like how you played the "Unforgiveable" scene at the end and twice within the video as it is my favorite scene in the movie.

What a beautiful and great actress was Vivien Leigh!
