B. Goren. Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 Dame Julie Andrews is to be honoured with a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Screen Actors Guild, the US actors group said Tuesday. Andrews, 70, came to worldwide attention as the star of Mary Poppins, for which she won an Oscar in 1964 and followed by a starring role in The Sound of Music. More recently she appeared in The Princess Diaries and voiced the role of the queen in Shrek 2. “Julie Andrews is a woman of great generosity, creativity, courage, elegance and wit,” said SAG president Alan Rosenberg in a statement. “She embodies and transcends the memorable roles she has created.” The actress, who has been married to director Blake Edwards for 37 years, was named as a Dame of the British Empire in 1999 and is a Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Development Fund for Women. http://www.ecanadanow.com/entertainment/20...ievement-award/ Quote

RDK Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 I can't wait to hear what Popocat has to say about this one! Quote
fasstrack Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 I've been in love with her my entire life. As a child among the first musical sounds I heard around the house were hers---in Camelot and My Fair Lady. Her voice is as pure as the rain. Her beauty and acting took my breath away especially opposite James Garner in 'The Americanization of Emily'. And my instincts tell me she must be just as class an act as a person. Quote

Larry Kart Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 I've been in love with her my entire life. As a child among the first musical sounds I heard around the house were hers---in Camelot and My Fair Lady. Her voice is as pure as the rain. Her beauty and acting took my breath away especially opposite James Garner in 'The Americanization of Emily'. And my instincts tell me she must be just as class an act as a person. I did an interview with her once, in about 1988. She seemed to me to be a class act as a person, absolutely -- and a relatively "unarmored" one too, for a celebrity -- perhaps a bit too unarmored for her own good in the worlds in which she moved. Talking to her was a pleasure, though. Quote
