West Wing Icons

Not what I was supposed to be doing, but then I thought it would be fun to have a Ainsley Can-I-have-a-muffin icon. 54 other icons later, I did remember to do that...

Okay, in the interest of whether or not I had evil-English -teacher induced madness/nightmare or not, I Googled and what I watched was Suddenly Last Summer (1993) with Maggie Smith, Natasha Richardson and Rob Lowe, which makes total sense. Whether I got confused by the teacher's waffling, or he actually told us it was the Glass Menagerie, I don't know - either is entirely possible.

I quote, mainly for my information, sorry: Mrs. Venable has to be one of Maggie Smith's most powerful small screen performances, her rendition of the crippled yet revenge ridden widow is a gothic portrayal which is matched with an equally memorable Natasha Richardson as Catherine. Every facet of this Richard Eyre production reeks of class, the supporting cast are divine with Rob Lowe turning in an understated Dr. Sugar who is pressured to perform a dangerous lobotomy on Catherine in return for substantial research funding by Venable. As the film progresses the viewer is drawn into the tense narrative and the final scene where Catherine is summoned to the house to relive the death of Venable's son before the unbelieving harridan is just phenomenal. Only seen once on BBC2 back in November 1993, this film surely deserves a video release or even a repeat showing. Why it has only had one British outing is beyond me.

This means it was shown while I was doing my A-Level and it explains where I knew Natasha Richardson from - she was amazing in this. And Maggie Smith! No wonder it was giving me nightmares... :-)

Well, that was probably not exciting for you, but I have explained a weird thing that's been lurking at the back of my head for about 16 years, so I'm happy.

Edit: I think I remember how the son died as well now. No wonder I filed it under 'nightmare' and forgot it until I was forced to watch something else with Rob Lowe in...

Well, I am glad you sorted it all out! That is quite a mystery to have been carrying around for so long. In the interests of sanity I am avoiding that film at all costs.

:lol: Judging by the 'why has this never been released on DVD' remarks that accompanied the reviews, I think you should find that easy. On the other hand, Maggie Smith and Natasha Richardson? Hmm... :-)
