I know I am right for Scarlett. I can convince Mr. Selznick.
From Vivien Leigh
I'm not afraid to die.
I loved fencing and dancing and elocution.
I'm not a film star, I am an actress. Being a film star is such a false life, lived for fake values and for publicity.
People think that if you look fairly reasonable, you can't possibly act, and as I only care about acting, I think beauty can be a great handicap.
Sometimes I dread the truth of the lines I say. But the dread must never show.
When I come into the theatre I get a sense of security. I love an audience. I love people, and I act because I like trying to give pleasure to people.
A lucky thing Eva Peron was. She died at 32. I'm already 45.
Every single night I'm nervous. You never know how the audience is going to react.
I'm not young. What's wrong with that?
