    Thompson is a great actress, authentic in every role, comfortable in her skin; and to the idiots criticising her accent, it is anything but fake: she enjoys the feelings and sounds of words...Innit.

      Yes, "itgetseasierlessitry". Nicely spoken; however you forgot to mention that she is: hyper-smart, hugely successful and highly respected. Just sayin' , La Donna (to the sound of words)...

      Who criticises her accent? She was born and London and to me sounds very much as if that's where she comes from. She sounds like my old friend Julia, born and bred and still living in the L.B. of H. & F. I'm from the L.B. of B. & D. myself, so don't sound quite so posh.

      I have to say this I enjoy the show Murder She Wrote because it actually was a fantastic show. Even though Angela Lansbury really was not very good in it. If you watch two shows in various seasons you will see her acting ability is terrible in them. I don't know if she was having mini-strokes while she was acting or what. But if she were delivering a line it would be all wrong she would accent either in the wrong place or make it a question rather than a statement. Really terrible. So I don't want to give her all the Fantastic Kudos that people are quick to. Watch this show and you'll see. I don't hate the woman I'm just saying weren't they paying attention when they were filming the stuff. Perhaps the director was afraid to speak up.

    • @n.q1158
      @n.q1158 4 роки тому +3

      Well, she said what she felt at first was utter panic (which is such an Emma-thing to say, really), so she called Angela and told her how afraid she was to sing her iconic song and everything, and Angela told her she could calm down and needed to worry about nothing because she would without question manage to give her own personal and brilliant spin on the character and the song - and so she did.
      And yes, the same with Sweeney Todd's Mrs Lovett. Emma's is by far my favourite version and anyone who hasn't seen it yet really should!

It's not a bad way to remember Dame Angela Lansbury is it? Hers was a long life, well lived, in which she touched the lives of all who met her or saw her perform. She was a wonderful character actress and as a human being, quite wonderfully herself.
