[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 438488, member: 23"] Now I've finally watched it, I can see why. I was aware of this, and looked into watching it after viewing [I]Wanda.[/I] I gave up when it wasn't free to stream for me (I don't subscribe to any service beyond Prime) and based on your comments perhaps I'm not missing all that much. Ah yes. I have watched [I]Soapdish[/I], but that was probably 20+ years ago. Perhaps I'll be due a revisit soon. [I]Dave[/I] is another that I know about but have yet to watch. It has a pretty good cast. A month on from watching and, yes, this is [U][I]the[/I][/U] scene of the film for me and Maria Aitken makes it. Oh yes. That's a good fit. Ooh, interesting. I don't think I would have considered her on the grounds of her being unobtainable. I could envisage her as Wanda but somehow - even in fan casting - I couldn't imagine her doing a non-American film. Then I realised I'd forgotten about [I]The Prince And The Showgirl[/I]. Now I think about it, the business with Wanda pretending to be extremely short-sighted without her glasses does seem to channel Pola Debevoise. [/QUOTE]
