AFTER ten years Laurence Olivier returns to Hollywood to make a film, "Carrie," based on a novel by Theodore Dreiser. In this decade he has crossed that invisible line which divides the very good actor from the great actor — a fact demonstrated to American audiences by his performances in "Henry V," "Hamlet" and his Broadway appearance with England's Old Vic Company. "Carrie" is a Paramount picture and also stars Jennifer Jones. Left: He finds her unlike the women of his class but charming nonetheless. The Olivier gamut ranges from roles like this to malevolent Richard III. Right: Olivier is pleased over Jennifer's delight with unaccustomed finery. He was born in Dorking, England, in 1907; was acting at age eighteen. Below: They try to bridge the sizeable gap between their backgrounds. Later, Jennifer leaves him, afraid he'll be completely ruined by love for her. Wellborn gentleman Olivier pays his first call on an obscure but beautiful young girl, Jennifer Jones.
