Production Notes
In her seven minute appearance from “French and Saunders” 1999 Spring special Mirren plays a world famous actress with a resumé similar to her own. She comes to teach an acting ‘Masterclass’ with her drama school chums Maggie Moffitt (French) “ceaseless worker on behalf of Actor’s Equity” and Tillie Dickerson (Saunders) housewife and former actress (last credit, Dr. Who). During the class old issues between the women are revealed which are sensitive but also very funny. A fine line between comedy and tragedy is drawn in this sketch and all three actresses walk it with skill. Mirren displays her flair for comedy and French and Saunders are, as usual, delightful.
