5. No, she didn't. She didn't fit the show biz standards for women as she was supposed to.

18. Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that she passed away.

Edited on Mon May-03-10 12:23 PM by Beacool

She was a delightful actress, even though she didn't achieve her sister's recognition.

What a loss to the family. Natasha died a year ago, then Lynn and Vanessa's older brother died a month ago and now Lynn too.

How sad......

:(

22. Very sad news.

Edited on Mon May-03-10 12:59 PM by CBHagman

What a talented woman. I was hoping to see her do an evening of Shakespeare with Derek Jacobi next month (They were to appear with Richard Clifford, David Daniels, and the Folger Consort).

How sad that we've lost her this early, and deeply, deeply sad for her family, friends, and colleagues, who are also reeling from the deaths of Natasha Richardson and Corin Redgrave.

Godspeed, lovely Lynn.

With Georgy Girl co-star Alan Bates.

23. I only saw "Georgy Girl" for the first time all the way through recently.

I also bought a DVD of "Smashing Time" with Rita Tushingham a few months ago. It is kind of hard to find on DVD. No dometic release.
