The key to a great career is to be totally in love with what you do. Helen Mirren must have been in more then 50 movies and a equal amount of plays and TV series. She is remarkably in that she continues to work. Her first credits go back to 1967.
London’s National Theatre Production of Phèdre starring Ms. Mirren, performed in London and screened at Mann Chinese Theatre in LA yesterday. These kinds of screenings make theatre accessible and affordable again. No travel and no enormous Broadway ticket price.
There is a review on the LA Times blog but there are also tweets by the theater goers. Pretty nice.
