Mia Farrow Reflects on Relationship With 'Kind' Vivien Leigh, Joan Crawford's 'Strange Vibe'

Mia Farrow's first uncredited role was in 1959's "John Paul Jones" (a movie directed by her father), and she was raised around old Hollywood royalty, including Vivien Leigh and Joan Crawford. In a sprawling conversation published in Interview this week, Farrow praised Leigh as "kind" and Crawford as "scary" - both on screen and in person. While speaking to fellow Tony Award nominee Cole Escola, Farrow explained Leigh went to school with her mother, actress Maureen O'Sullivan. When she was 17, Farrow performed in a stage production of "The Importance of Being Earnest" . . .
