Post by: Mysterious Benefactor on April 12, 2011, 01:24:11 AM

Sadly, I didn't find out about this until today because I might have gone.

Actress returns to R.I., this time as a filmmaker (http://www.projo.com/news/content/ALEXANDRA_ISLES_04-10-11_B4NFLEV_v30.16adde2.html)

There's a nice color photo with this Web site version. The print version is in B&W.

So will I!  She is truly a class act, and I only wish she put in an appearance at a Festival. I wrote to her some years back, and she signed some photos for me.  To me she'll always be "Vicki"!

Ms. Isles makes such interesting documentaries!  I remember seeing her a few times at the reference/research desk at the Museum.

This sounds very interesting.
I bought my husband a film (fictional) about museum watchmen (sorry, can't think of the name; it had Christopher Walken & I think Morgan Freeman, to name a few) and it was funny.
I just checked my local PBS; don't see it listed as airing tonight.
Does anyone know for Atlanta when it might be 'broadcast'?
Thanks,
Patti

I saw it, and it was excellent!  Alexandra dedicated it to her granddaughter Nina, who according to her already likes museums!  Here's a link to a recent pic of Alexandra and Nina:

did anyone else get to see this?

i thought it was very interesting and not as intense and serious as some of her other documentaries.
