Olivier and Leigh Lived Here

Sunday July 27, 2008

If you've got a little under $2 million, you can cozy up with the object of your affection in the New York house where Vivian Leigh and Sir Laurence Olivier were said to set off sparks, back before they were married.

According to the real estate company (natch), the frail and lovely actress was preparing for her role in Gone With the Wind, and Sir Larry was taking flying lessons nearby while they were in the l'amour fou stage of their courtship. Gracious!
