Re: Actress Susannah York dead
How weird.
Late last night I sent an email about her.
I was on a film website and they wrongly said she'd played George, in the groundbreaking The Killing of Sister George.
She was actually Alice/Childie, the prize in the love triangle, fought over by Beryl Reid and Coral Browne.
It's one of my favourite films, and it annoyed me that they'd got Susannah York's role listed incorrectly, hence the email.
She played some interesting and challenging parts, especially early in her career, and helped shaped how certain subjects were viewed.
(Departs, humming the theme to The Twighlight Zone.)
