Subject: RE: Obit: Dame Angela Lansbury DBE (1925–2022) From: GUEST,keberoxu Date: 13 Oct 22 - 03:27 PM Gargoyle's yellow postscript makes a point. It was the mother of Angela and Edgar Lansbury (they were twins) who had a career on the English stage. Angela Lansbury became one of the "MGM broads" as someone else put it, and she knew Hollywood when it really was all that. It was Angela Lansbury who was quoted as saying that the Hollywood cinematographers knew how to make a mud puddle look glamorous with the right lighting and camera angle. |

One of them was with Angela Lansbury in Sweeney Todd. Live music is best! |

Subject: RE: Obit: Dame Angela Lansbury DBE (1925–2022) From: Joe Offer Date: 13 Oct 22 - 01:54 AM She did a good job keeping up with Judy Garland in Harvey Girls in 1946. Fun movie. But my favorite Angela Lansbury singing performances were in Disney's Beauty and the Beast. This performance was 6 years ago in 2016, on the 25th anniversary of the movie. Here's a performance from 1992, when her voice was stronger. And then there's "A Little Priest" from Sweeney Todd. -Joe- |

Sincerely, Gargoyle Never thought of her as a Brit ... always thought her accent to be an affectation she put on for American audiences. |
