- Laurence Olivier: A Life. Part 1 & 2 (South Bank Show 1982) The Full Documentary. Originally aired on October 17th, 1982, on ITV. Widely regarded as the most famous South Bank episode, and probably the most in-depth interview ever held with Olivier. In post, I cropped it a little then coloured it as best I could and added a LUT, the original video was covered in watermarks and overexposed with very little colour. It runs for approximately 2 hours 35 minutes.

A very beautiful man, brilliant actor, love to listen his voice.❤
Such a brilliant actor, director and manager. We will not see his like again.
The interview itself is a master class in the art and technique of acting.
Greatest actor that ever graced the stage, or set.
How shamefully the NT treat him in the end, how well he took the ritual humiliating speech and presentation by that creep Hall. Great acting or what.
Totally agree🫡

Wonderful thank you x
You're welcome :)
I love Laurence Oliver ❤ I like to name my son after him if I have children that is
I really hope Brideshead is mentioned! What a performance!~
He was a very kind man as well, and grew into being an actor during a time which was unlike any other. Of course, made a bewildering catastrophe of some parts he played, mainly because he was rarely with director who knew how to talk to him. Then, when his totally unsung friend, Donald McKechnie, helped him start the National Theatre, he did his best stage work. And if you've seen Gene Hackman or John Malkovich (and I mean whenacting on the stage) you'll have seen the same Godly power. John.
Thanks a lot for uploading. I saw this when first broadcast and have wanted to revisit it many times since without success. I’ll cherish this.
You're welcome ✌️
These actors were a special type, Gielgud Ralph Richardson Olivier they were considered exceptional even by other very successful actors of the time
But to me Olivier took the whole thing to another dimension of genius and magic
mad respect
Fabulous! Thank you.
My hero. Thank you for this rich documentary of him.
What a great man, actor and human being.
He liked oysters & snails....allegedly
I wouldn't necessarily say that Olivier is the best actor of all time but he's the one I admire the most.
32:32 My favourite part of this documentary. Richardson is such an imp. What a delightful friend to have.
THE GREATEST ACTOR FOR THE LAST 400 YEARS....NOW ALSO THE GREATEST ACTOR TILL ETERNITY...❤❤❤❤
By God, Alan Bates was a handsome man.

I love his voice very much! In Henry V and Richard III he was very loud.👏🙌❤️
This is really interesting. Thanks for posting.
Appreciate that, thanks.
Refined in the best possible way. He conveys feeling with such exquisite self deprecation.
The man Jed Harris for whom he modeled Richard the third after had an affair with Henry Fonda’s first wife who later committed su1c1de.
Jed Harris also had a child with Ruth Gordon.

Thanks for posting
Absolutely one, if not thee, best actor of all time mesmerising performances all the time on stage and on screen in a class of his own i loved him with vivien leigh❤🎉
Everyone should have an uncle like Ralph Richardson.
🪅Thank you so much for posting this, just marvelous. 🎭🧡
What about Norbert Smith?
For an intelligent man Bragg is sometimes a pedantic dunce when it comes to the arts he has fronted. The urge to journalistically anatomise style is like cutting up a worm to find out how it works. You've found out how it works but all you are left with is a dead worm cut up into parts. It is no longer wriggling and alive. It is merely a mortified specimen. Art is mystique, that's why we love it.
I don’t get Laurence Olivier. I get Peter O’Toole, Richard Burton and Gielgud but not Olivier. It’s strange to see at the beginning R Donat an Olivier together since Hitchcock first choice to play the male part in Rebecca was Donat.
👏
3:41. Always depends on the individual.
