Wow is she part vampire?! That stare put me in a trance! 5'.05" is a good estimate for her.

She was very good in Kind Hearts and Coronets and The Importance of Being Earnest. I recall her being petite, didn't know she was this short though.

1000 movies?? Crikey! Good luck! I don't think even I manage that LOL. I think I see about 600 maybe 700 odd. An average of 1.5 - two a day overall I think but I might have a marathon one day and see more and then the next day might not watch one at all. The Ealing comedies are quite brilliant, especially the Alec Guiness ones. Passport to Pimlico and The Ladykillers are my personal favourites I think. I do think for the purposes of the website you seeing a lot more films and a broader range regularly would be a good thing. I know you've often agreed with mine and Sam's observations which have led to some listing changes, Particularly the really old ones you've got to be careful as they used to get away with 2 or 3 inches at times! I'm sure you'll have no problems finding films you want to watch but if you want me to recommend some especially again I'd be happy to!

yes, without as much scrutiny as the latter 20 years, you could say an inflated height easier in the past and also throw in half inches for a sense of believablity, a trick I'm sure many used.

I do hope you've been watching some British classics Rob and spotted her!

my plan this year is to watch 1000 movies. I am going to watch all sorts, from old up to current. 3 a day...we'll see!
Yes I watched some Ealing last week
