      Yes, so lucky! Would I had been there. It was the year after when he did the famous radio broadcast (as Cornwall) with Sir John Gielgud celebrating his 90th birthday by playing the title role, happily on UA-cam. I also have the recording with the young Robert Stephens playing Edgar superbly. Hopefully a recording of his Lear (and Falstaff) will turn up.

    Dame Maggie Smith is one class act! I love her in everything I've ever seen her in. My favorites have always been drama's tinged with comedy. And seeing her play a good old Louisiana lady is priceless with her southern accent. And starring with Dame Judy Dench in Ladies in Lavender. It wasn't a popular movie but I loved it! You were also in 2 Hercules Poirot (Peter Ustinov) Agatha Christie movies. Evil Under the Sun and Death on the Nile (where you worked for Bette Davis' character).
    Dame Maggie, may you live forever in our hearts and memories!!

    I once had a drama teacher who told me that the more issues an actor had, the better it was for the work. In the case of both Maggie and Robert, this could not be more true. Their achievements over so many years have enhanced all our lives immeasurably. And when they were young, they could at times look beautiful enough to break the heart.

    I've loved Dame Maggie Smith for YEARS! I was THRILLED to see her in the "Harry Potter" Movies. I watch them all the time. I was in love with someone for many years. I said I was "Psychologically Married" to him. It was TERRIBLY one-sided. I VOWED: "I'll NEVER love another man! I'll never let myself be vulnerable again!" In walked this "Beautiful Man [inside and out]. I've never been so in love and "emotionally secure". He makes me giddy and I feel like a young optimistic woman again. He reached into my chest like Kate Beckinsale did Theo James in one of the "Underworld" movies and made my heart beat again. I'll never stop loving him. I'll spend the rest of my life trying to put a smile on his face. He's had an unspeakable loss. I want to ALWAYS be his "Funny Girl". Thank you. I didn't know anything about Dame Maggie Smith's personal life! Yes, retirement is death. I'd retired--I'm as rusty [physically] as "The Tin Man" from "The Wizard Of Oz"! 😵‍💫

    Many years ago I worked at a bookstore in Towson Maryland brentano's probably the lowest money per our I've ever made and one of my all-time favorite jobs. Movie here in Baltimore Maggie Smith was in it. I was doing inventory and my boss is waiting on customers. I look up and Maggie Smith is standing there remember that she bought something by Barbara tuchman and that she was wearing a lovely blouse with autumn leaves on it and a skirt that was kind of a very light brown and went very well with the shirt. I can't even remember my phone number sometimes and I still remember that she was so nice and my boss was trying to think of her name and I could see it on her face I just stood there Gaga and I think I did say something about how much I loved her in the movies. It probably came out as total nonsense in gibberish as she was leaving my boss Cindy says Prime of Miss Jean Brodie actually she yelled it Smith turned around and smiled and waved at her. And then the woman over at the magazine area who had been staring comes over. Oh my God was that Maggie Smith. We were both so excited the rest of the day and it was just a nice experience. The assistant manager came in and she was majoring in theater and we told her all about it because we thought she would be thrilled and she didn't even know who Maggie Smith was. And this was back in the 90s when people were still smart

    I thought she was once married to Actor David Niven, yet they never mentioned it.

    Maggie Smith has played a parody of herself for at least the past 30 years.
