Mildred Natwick (1905-1994) |
|
- Agnes Moorehead, Show Boat, 1950. Booked for Parthy Hawks, Barrymore had to back out due to a crowded diary. Natwick was considered before Moorehead was signed.
- Ruth Gordon, Harold and Maude, 1971. There were obviously quite a few possible Harolds, but surely Ruth was the only possible Maude - even if shecouldn’t drive a car.Not quite. Director Hal Ashby chatted up every funky old bird still breathing and insurable... Peggy Aschfroft, Elisabeth Bergner, Gladys Cooper, Edith Evans, Edwige Feuillère, Dorothy Stickney.
