I know that Monday morning look all too well...
90 years ago yesterday , the very lovely Miss Lee Remick - who died tragically young, aged just 55 - was born.
Renowned for her piercing steel-blue eyes and for her serious acting talents (Days of Wine and Roses, The Omen, The Medusa Touch and more), she was also a theatrical trouper, and a great favourite of Stephen Sondheim.
Conveniently for a Tacky Music Monday, here's a fine example of one of their collaborations! [Skip to 1:55 for the sparkle to begin]:
Have a good week, dear reader.
Adorable and adored.
ReplyDeleteI can see why Sondheim loved her so much.
She Was -
Delete"A spark
To pierce the dark
From Battery Park
Way up to Washington Heights!"
"Hell, I'd even play the maid
DeleteTo be in a show!"
Indeed. Jx
She was a marvel. I want to be dressy and juicy.
ReplyDeleteDon't we all, dear? 🤣 Jx
DeleteMonday? Bah humbug.
ReplyDeleteMonday, getting up in the dark, going home in the dark - roll on Spring! Roll on the Lottery win! Jx
DeleteShe was a great performer.
ReplyDeleteRemarkably good! Jx
