Olivia

*Promises whispered under candlelight - kisses shared in the quiet of the night - kneeled pleas for commitment. Jacqueline Audrey’s Olivia (1951) *depicts the teenage difficulty of traversing a world that simultaneously seems wondrous yet unconquerable where a young girl is left searching for answers to questions she cannot yet formulate. Finding this film at 14 years old would have altered my perception of things to come in the future, and I can only hope it can do for others what it was too late to do for me.
