We continue with the BBC Shakespeare Collection and Helen’s second appearance in the series – as Titania in 1981’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”. To learn more about the project, have a look at the career page. Stills, promos and screencaptures have been added to the gallery, and three clips have been added to the video archive. Her third – and final – collaboration with the BBC Shakespeare series will be covered next.

This week we spotlight the 1978 television adaptation of “As You Like It”, one of three Shakespeare adaptations that Helen did for the BBC. To learn more about the project (and the difficulties of mounting the BBC Shakespeare series), have a look at the career page. Stills, promos and screencaptures have been added to the gallery, and three clips have been added to the video archive.

After covering the rather less successful projects in the past week, let’s bring back a really good one. Today’s spotlight features one of Helen’s best performances of her recent career – John Madden’s “The Debt”. To learn more about the film, check the career page. Stills, promotionals and Blu-Ray screencaptures have been added to the gallery. And there are lots of promotional interviews, featurettes and clips from the film added to the video archive.

Here’s the second entry for Stage Sunday – Helen’s performance in Tom Kempinski’s 1991 farce “Sex Please, We’re Italian”. I don’t mean to do a disaster weekend – but after reviewing “Caligula” on Friday, “Sex Please, We’re Italian” stands in line with projects gone bad. The New York Times called it “one of the most spectacularly unfunny evenings the London theater has seen in decades”. More information on the play and its background can be found on the career page, production stills, rehearsals pictures and the programme have been added to the gallery.

Sooner or later this film had to be covered as part of Helen’s career – so let’s get over with “Caligula”, the dreadful history/epic/porn starring Malcolm McDowell, Helen Mirren and Peter O’Toole. To learn more about this infamous disaster of a film, check the career page. Stills, promotionals and Blu-Ray screencaptures have been added to the gallery. The theatrical trailer, its promotional featurette (in which Helen sums up the film perfectly) and three clips can be watched in the video archive.

The next spotlight is a favorite of mine – the 1997 miniseries “Painted Lady”, in which Helen plays a has-been rock singer who is drawn into the world of illegal art trade in an effort to solve a murder mystery. To learn more about the series, check the career page. Stills, promotionals and almost 2.000 screencaptures have been added to the gallery. Six clips from both parts can be watched in the video archive.

Today we cover “Red King White Knight”, a 1989 spy thriller from HBO, starring Tom Skerritt, Max von Sydow and Helen Mirren. To learn more about the film, check the career page. Stills, screencaptures and some lovely promotionals have been added to the gallery. The theatrical trailer, a featurette and three clips can be watched in the video archive.
