	Laurence Olivier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Olivier was born in 1907 in Dorking, Surrey.
		Olivier was one of the founders of the National Theatre.

	Lawrence of Arabia (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lawrence's homosexuality, the evidence for which has mostly been gleaned through his writings, is also broadly hinted at.
		Lawrence, unlike his depiction in the film, was far from a pacifist before the war; indeed, he was a crack shot with a pistol (his preferred weapon being a Colt.45 Peacemaker) and enjoyed practicing at shooting ranges when he could.
		Much of the missing dialogue involves Lawrence's writing of poetry and verse, alluded to by Allenby in particular, saying "the last poetry general we had was Wellington." Lawrence's first meeting with Allenby in Cairo was significantly shorter, and the scene in Jerusalem where Allenby convinces Lawrence not to resign existed in only fragmented form.

	Hamlet - Criterion Collection DVD - Michael Weise Productions
		Olivier seems to understand just how to do it and the results, especially in "Hamlet" are a joy to behold.
		Second, Olivier's version of Hamlet the man. This prince of Denmark may be introspective, suspicious and more than a little self-centered, but when the times call for it, Hamlet is a man of action.
		Olivier has created a fl-and-white vision of austere camera angles, with heavy stone stairways and battlements, fog and shadows, great dining halls that are damp and chilly.

		In Olivier's version, his mother is practically younger than he is. In Branagh's, she is the appropriate age to be his mother, a widow, and a wife.
		Lawrence Olivier sets his in a barren room with curtained walls and only a small table in the center.
		Olivier plays the part of a moody young man. He does not portray his character to the fullest extent, and therefore his Hamlet is sometimes difficult to understand.

	DVD Review:
		The third and final entry in Laurence Olivier's Shakespeare triptych, Richard III (1954) is an audacious portrait of a man determined to prove himself a villain.
		Olivier justly received an Oscar®; nomination for his performance; and believe it or not, this film was the inspiration for the original Blackadder!
		Olivier's performance in this film absolutely electrified me as a young boy, and it still does.It turned me on to Shakespeare - and what a great thing acting can be, as a way of exploring the multi-faceted mysteries of human nature.

	Lawrence Gertrude
		Her father, a struggling Danish singer and theatrical supporting-artist who had spent his early years in Germany, earned a precarious living in musical comedy under the pseudonym of Arthur Lawrence, while her mother Alice, a scion of a middle-class English family, was now a long-suffering housewife with strong (albeit frustrated) theatrical aspirations.
		ertrude Lawrence continued her career on Broadway, starring in a wide range of shows, such as the thoughtful drama 'Susan and God' (1937), the original and influential musical 'Lady in the Dark' (1944), which was written for her by
		Lawrence made at least 13 recordings, wrote the autobiography "A Star Danced" (New York, 1945), and her life was the subject of and retold in the film 'Star!', (1969) with

	Laurence Olivier Wuthering Heights
		Goldwyn's earlier plan was to team Olivier romantically with his Divorce of Lady X costar Merle Oberon as Cathy--and the actor's offscreen inamorata Vivien Leigh in the secondary part of Isabella.
		Olivier knew Vivien would have made a perfect Cathy, while doubting Merle's emotional qualifications for the role.
		Laurence Olivier's Heathcliff is the man. He has Heathcliff’s broad lowering brow, his scowl, the churlishness, the wild tenderness, the bearing, speech and manner of the demon-possessed.

	Bright Lights Film Journal \| Nine Hamlets
		Olivier and Sir John give us stage trickery instead of a real actor, which doesn’t work too well, but when we do get a flesh and blood actor, strutting about in a suit of armor that must weigh fifty pounds, as in the Jacobi and Kline versions, that doesn’t work too well either.
		Olivier’s Ophelia — Jean Simmons, at the start of her career — looks at times like someone’s girlfriend, an awkward, pretty girl who doesn’t quite know what to do with herself on stage.
		Olivier, rather amazingly, omits the players entirely, and thus loses Hamlet’s “O what a peasant slave and rogue am I” soliloquy, which is scarcely a step down from “To be or not to be” itself.

	Hamlet (1948) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Hamlet (Laurence Olivier), son of the murdered king of Denmark, contemplates whether or not to take vengeance on the murderer and now king, Claudius (Basil Sydney), Hamlet's uncle.
		Olivier is superb as Hamlet --- especially when delivering the soliloquies, several of which are genuinely powerful.
		Herlie is very good, managing to completely overcome that fact that she is really 13 years younger than Olivier.

		Olivier's "King Lear" is a wonderful cap to his career, it is a part he understood deeply as evidenced by this реrfоrmаnсе.
		He was too physically wеак to play it on stage and even with microphones his voice is not entirely up to thе 'hurricanos' speech, and of course he had to hаvе wires to help him carry Cordelia (whiсh are very visible here).
		The late Sir Laurence Olivier's finаl major screen role, five years before his death in 1989, is one оf his most legendary and best performances.

	Amazon.com: Richard III (1955) (Ws) (1956) : Video (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Olivier uses the adaptation of the play by the great British actor David Garrick from a couple centuries back, using the last part of Shakespeare's Henry VI, part 3, for necessary background, and then going off full-tilt into the best melodrama in the English speaking world.
		Laurence Olivier as the hunchback King, and where others melodramatize Richard's deformities, thus providing him with an excuse for his actions, Sir Laurence portrays him as just pure evil, which is much more frightening and villainous.
		Olivier comes across as very thoughtful and is pleasant to watch as he makes his way through his own career.

	Pride and Prejudice DVD - Michael Weise Productions
		Lawrence Olivier was one of the best actors of his generation, and ideally suited to play the role of a rich, handsome, well educated man who has every advantage in life and knows it.
		Olivier is the better actor and the better Darcy, more able to portray upper class hauteur combined with his growing, unwilling love of Elizabeth Bennet.
		But this version still captures the playfulness of Austen's story, and is graced with wonderful portrayals not only by Olivier and Garson but also by some of the best Hollywood character actors of the early 1940s.

		Olivier's is the legacy to which Branaugh, the darling of the current generation, fancies himself the pretender.
		Olivier, who produced and directed most of his Shakespeare films, has actually used the film medium to enlarge his plays' visual scope, while maintaining the intimacy that is the essence of live theatre.
		Olivier was an absolute genius, beginning the film as a theatrical production at the Globe Theater, England in 1600 and gradually opening it up into a full-fledged cinematic experience 20-25 minutes into the movie.
