@bjornsiborgsi What a bunch of crap!

Wow, what I wouldn't give to have seen her in that play. Everybody agrees she was the best. So many great stage performances are lost because nobody thought to just film them.

Elizabeth Ashley, to me, was the best at that Role. She made it come alive! She is by far the most gifted, talented actress I ever worked with. Amazing woman!

She's a hot mess. A total train wreck here.
