	The other woman: Joan Plowright
		Joan Plowright fit this description, and Larry set his interest on this plain, mousy, unattractive woman.
		Joan Plowright was exceedingly plain, with a nice enough face but certainly not one that would make heads turn as they had just done for Vivien when she entered Sardi's.
		Joan and Larry were later wed and had a large family.

		Joan Ann Olivier, The Lady Olivier, DBE (born October 28, 1929), known by her maiden name as Dame Joan Plowright, is a British actress, widow of Laurence Olivier.
		Long known as a superb theatre actress, Plowright trained at the Old Vic in London and made her stage debut in 1951 and her London debut in 1954.
		Her brother, David Plowright, was an executive at Granada Television before being sacked by Gerry Robinson, "the wealthiest Irishman in Britain" (who, coincidentally, was awarded a knighthood in the 2004 New Year's Honours together with Dame Joan).

		Plowright spent the better part of the next two decades dividing her time between her family and the London stage, where she triumphed as Shaw's "St. Joan" (1963), as Portia in "The Merchant of Venice" (1970, to Olivier's Shylock) and in the title role of "Filumena" (1980).
		In 1990, Plowright delivered two very confident and different family matriarchs: in Lawrence Kasdan's fl comedy "I Love You to Death", she was the tabloid-loving Yugoslavian mother of a woman (Tracey Ullman) plotting to kill her philandering husband (Kevin Kline), while in Barry Levinson's underrated "Avalon", she avoided stereotype as a meddling Jewish mama.
		Later, in 1999, Plowright received yet another memorable role, this time as a high society Englishwoman in "Tea with Mussolini." Her role as Mary Wallace was a reminder of why Plowright continued to be a sought-after artist.
