A dramatist would give his right arm to have laurence olivier act in one of his plays .
为了让劳伦斯奥利弗在自己的一个剧本中演出,一个剧作家愿付出极大代价。
But apart from a 1940 film of pride and prejudice -- it starred celebrated british actor laurence olivier and actress greet garson -- they have largely stayed away from jane austen until now .
It will be hard work , displacing memories of laurence olivier , who created the part on stage and screen , but the weathered showboat that is mr. jagger seems a highly likely candidate .
