This “White Lotus” hoo-ha with Helena Bonham Carter reminds me of Vivien Leigh. When asked to swoop in and save the day on “Hush… Hush, Sweet Charlotte”, Viv quipped: “I can just about stand looking at Joan Crawford’s face at six o’clock in the morning, but NOT Bette Davis’s!”.

Timothée Chalamet... Not since the days of Wilde and Bosie Douglas has an Oscar been blown this badly!

I’m not in the habit of giving compliments (though God knows I can fish for them), but this moment made me weep. Don’t we all yearn for it? Validation from the Miriams of the world -- rare souls who refuse to suffer fools. A real brick! #GlennClass

Three years after Dame Angela Lansbury turned the bedknob one last time and sailed heavenward on National Coming Out Day, the luminous DIANE KEATON joins her in that great turtleneck emporium in the sky. 💔

Kate and Our Number One Lady have never been in a live-action film together (more’s the pity!), but they were linked to rival adaptations of Zola’s THÉRÈSE RAQUIN. Glennie was to play the aunt, mind. That version was eventually released in 2013 as IN SECRET with Depressica Lange.
