Truly, Madly: Vivien Leigh, Laurence Olivier, and the Romance of the Century

Thank you to Grand Central Pub for the gifted copy of Truly, Madly! All opinions in this review are my own.
I wanted this book to be more focused on Laurence Olivier and Vivien Leigh's relationship, but it read more like a biography of the two at the time of their relationship. There was more written about the movies they starred in rather than their relationship. "Larry" and Vivien are said to have been very private so Truly, Madly reads like the author didn't have enough to write about and included extra information to fill out the book.
