  1. An Ideal Husband. Her Mabel Chiltern holds her own against Oscar winners Cate Blanchett and Julianne Moore. Mabel is no fool.

  2. Loved Ideal Husband. Also, saw one of her Phantom Costumes in a costume exhibit on Cape Cod this summer. Really beautiful. The green/pink riding habit style day dress, I guess. Couldn’t find pics online of her wearing it.

  3. I had no idea Circle of Friends was supposed to be set in the 50s. I just thought Ireland had a very conservative society…

  4. The Red Tent not only pretty much guts the book, but the women go trapsing around arid lands and deserts circa 1500 BC in Lovely Drifting Layers that drag on the ground. And they don’t have anything coveing their heads. I kept thinking “Sunstroke, anyone?”

  5. Wasn’t she also the Red Violin? IMDB isn’t being helpful, since I don’t think that the Hot Gypsy Girl had a name.

  6. The Governess, because she screwed the guy who was trying to screw her in more ways than one. Based, I gather, on a true story.

  7. I don’t know if the 70’s -quite- count as historical (yet), but she was fabulous as the slightly burned out yet faaaaaaaaabuloulsy boho music teacher in Hunky Dory. That backless black dress in the finale was amazing and she looked stunning.

  8. Does anyone know what material was used to make Rosina’s black dress from The Governess? It almost looks like leather but it doesn’t move like it.

  9. Have you ever considered reviewing the 2004 version of Phantom of the Opera? The costumes look pretty good. And I loved her Carlotta. Especially that dog.
