@sirenthere Yes and she is crying herself too! (one tear rolling down her cheek at the end.) (I feel honored and proud that she wanted to be my pen pal. I have 20 letters by her written between 1995 and 2000.)

what i love about this is the fact that judi dench is sang it so simply. She is allowing the character to come through simply by singing, and by doing so, allows the piece to take on a clear, emotional lament. This is definitely one of my favorite renditions of one of my favorite songs of Sondheim! Simply beautiful.

i saw this for the first time about eight years ago when i went to new york for musical theatre training. we had a class where we watched videos of some of the greatest musical theatre performances over the years.
this was the last video one day. the class of twenty or so sat completely still and silent throughout this clip. at the end, every single person, including the instructor, was crying.
i believe this to be the single greatest musical theater performance ever captured on film.

It may very well be just me, but i've watched Dame Judi here and in 2010 Proms, and I believe she has improved in every way during the 15 years in between. Her voice becomes more sensual , her looks highly improve, and her demeaner is perfection....What a TALENT! Oh...why does it seem as though so many GREAT actresses and actors come from across the pond? Can't we produce these kinds of beautiful moments and performers...why is this happening in our country? Sorry. I do love the USA! I do!
