RIP The Late Great Beauty Madeline Kahn, Cancer took her away very young at age 57 back on December 1999. 😔

Kahn is so uniquely hilarious because she doesn’t actually “make jokes”. It’s all about her unique persona and delivery. Its mysterious whether or not she knows why she’s funny. Which also makes her very touching and likable. And she’s so multitalented!

In an age where protesters are banging on about trans women blah blah...here it is... the sublime effortless (well nearly) class, grace of a lady. She's fantastic and I am envious of her husband. Must be a top fellow the lucky bastard. I'm certain to be criticized but don't care. Viva when women were ladies and men were gentlemen.

@@siggylloyd3566 Patrick McGoohan was the genius behind much of the creative work of writing, designing, producing, as well as his performance, in "The Prisoner." I believe Episode 16, I think called "Hammer & Anvil," with just him and Leo McKern as No. 2 is still one of the best hours of television art I've ever seen. And I say that about a series that I would vote as the first among my top 3 ever with M*A*S*H in second the "Call the Midwife" in third place. It was the penultimate episode of that series and a master class in acting art. I would include among the other best hours in TV ever several Sid Caesar shows, several Johnny Carson shows, the "Pine Barrens" episode of "Sopranos" behind which Steve Buscemi was the creative genius, as well as performing in the episode, etc. I am not one of those who asks about zodiac signs.

The psychology of an artist is a study on its own. People see it as self centered, conceited, rude, etc., and each artist is different of course, but, so many have this "wall" that makes them come off as a very unpleasant person. I believe it's part of what that individual artist needs to do to protect themselves against what they fear from the audience.
