3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but not their best 15 Dec 2000
By A Customer
Format:VHS Tape
Having seen That Hamilton Woman, in which Leigh and Olivier played doomed lovers, I anticipated this film to be of equal stature.

While both performances were good, it seemed to lack the lustre and luminance that their later performances together held.

There is no new ground to be found in this film and some scences are particularly obvious, such as the man under the lampost, the sole policeman with his whistle.

The plot is week and sluggish at times. Slow off the mark and often tiresome, this is not a film that either actors will be remembered for.

3.0 out of 5 stars Vivien Leigh and Laurence Olivier in dull courtroom drama 28 Jan 2008
By Byron Kolln - Published on Amazon.com
Fans of Vivien Leigh and Laurence Olivier will be the only ones who'll appreciate this very ordinary courtroom drama, which plods along despite a relatively-brief 75 minute running-time.

Based on a story by John Galsworthy, TWENTY ONE DAYS revolves around the reckless younger brother of an esteemed court barrister, who accidentally kills the ex-husband of his girlfriend and dumps the body in a back-alley. A harmless tramp later gets arrested for the crime, leaving the young man to have a total conflict of conscience, aware of the consequences in store for his brother's reputation.

This was released in 1940, a year after Vivien Leigh's worldwide triumph in GONE WITH THE WIND. Her performance is very mannered and stage-bound, you'd never believe this girl would also provide (within the space of 12 months) the most amazing flesh-and-blood performance ever seen on the screen with Scarlett O'Hara. Similarly, Laurence Olivier rarely registers with the kind of screen magnetism he'd later exude with such latter-day movies as THE ENTERTAINER.

TWENTY ONE DAYS is hardly a classic of the genre, but for fans and admirers of Leigh and Olivier, it will be a fine title.
