Honor Blackman - A Versatile Actress in 'Mr and Mrs'
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we see the talented Honor Blackman embodying two contrasting roles with remarkable finesse. Known for her sophistication and elegance, she effortlessly portrays a sophisticated woman on one side of the stage. With poise and grace, she captivates audiences with her charm and allure. However, it is on the other side of the stage where Blackman truly shines as she transforms into what can only be described as a "real bitch". Donning a hideous red wig and curlers, complete with a cigarette dangling from her mouth, she becomes an unforgettable character - a nagging suburban housewife who dominates both her husband (John Neville) and mother (Hylda Baker). Her portrayal is so convincing that it leaves viewers both amused and slightly uncomfortable. The photograph captures Blackman in all her glory - smoking casually while holding a match alight. Her serious expression hints at the depth of emotion she brings to each performance. It is December 1968, an era when entertainment was evolving rapidly, yet here stands an actress who effortlessly adapts to any role thrown at her. This image by Alisdair Macdonald serves as a reminder of Honor Blackman's versatility as an actress during the 1960s. Whether playing sophisticated or audacious characters, she never fails to leave an indelible mark on stage or screen.
