It's the end of an era.
We adored you.
CAMP: "A cornucopia of frivolity, incongruity, theatricality, and humour." "A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love." "The lie that tells the truth." "Ostentatious, exaggerated, affected, theatrical; effeminate or homosexual; pertaining to or characteristic of homosexuals."
End of an era for sure. I can count on one hand the amount of talented actresses around and on par with the like Dame Maggie.

First Glenda, now Maggie :-(
Oh, there have been loads of significant departures of late. Sadly, our icons are not getting any younger (and nor are we)... Jx

ReplyDeleteWe sort-of thought she was immortal... Jx
