Viv'en Li - Utilov V.A.

"Once in a generation there is a lady from whom the whole continent can't take their eyes off," vivien Leigh actor and director Orson Welles addressed. She was and still is for many a standard of beauty and femininity, and for the cheerfulness that evokes a sense of happiness, she was called "Miss Vitamin B." The book on offer is special. Of course, many people wrote about Vivien Leigh. But she never had a more loving biographer. Vladimir Utilov - film critic, professor of VGIK, doctor of art history - did not hide his sincere love for Vivienne. After writing the book, he sent it to his heroine and even got an autograph from her in a letter. The difference between Utilov and other biographers of the actress can be seen from the first lines of the narration: he describes her with the deepest love, with full perception of her as she was. And she was beautiful, talented and brilliant. But like any brilliant man, Vivien was destined for a tragic fate.
