i missed the start of the interview, so i was lacking a mite in context, but i was most fortunate to see andrew denton's enough rope tonight. fortunate indeed!
i honestly believe that there is no other actress like her in (anglophone) cinema today. from the time i first saw her in excalibur - when i was about 9 or 10, i think - i thought her to be one of the most beautiful women i had ever seen. despite the fact that my own opinions of female beauty are rather more broad than the usual, the conclusion i reached some twenty-three years ago remains true today.
in more ways than i can say, helen mirren is for me the standard and marker of beauty.

It helps that she also seems genuinely to be a delightful person. You might feel differently if she were beautiful but bitchy. Having said that... she's my girl-crush...
She's a Lady in every sense of the word! I loved her hair too... Kath :)
