VIVIEN LEIGH FILM FESTIVAL
August 18, 2015  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 6:00 a.m. ET

 
Today’s star of the day, being saluted for 24 hours straight, is Vivien Leigh. And though not every one of her classic films is included in today’s marathon, the two best are, one in prime time, the other in late night: 1939’s Gone with the Wind at 10:15 p.m. ET, and 1951’s A Streetcar Named Desire at 3:45 a.m. ET. That leaves room for plenty of others, including many films that predate them both. Watch, especially, for 1937’s Dark Journey (pictured) at 4:45 p.m. ET, in which Leigh, in her first starring role, plays a spy falling in love during WWI.
