Taeylor, I was so happy to read that you're feeling better!
I think she was a perfect Victoria too, and I was shocked to learn that she almost didn't make it past her early audition. Apparently we have Dan Curtis to thank for realizing the mistake. Go figure.
It's interesting that you like the detail that the Collinses don't know how many rooms are in their family home. That bugged me a little. Yes, it's huge, but it's no Buckingham Palace... and we do know how many rooms that has.
Me too! My favorite line so far has to be, "(Barnabas:) My business has always been rather consuming." Ha ha!
And Willie trying to impress Roger by telling him that instead of working he was spending the time reading, starting with the old books-- too funny. (Yes, the [Egyptian] Book of the Dead is a real collection of ancient texts.)
Willie can read??!!
Thank you for taking the time to rewrite your review, cuz I know you said you'd lost the first one. And many thanks for the kind words.
My Joanna Going is one lovely woman and I think there was no other actress who could have played Victoria '91. Or maybe I am just parcel?? LOL
