I'm not laughing, actually. I don't know how good it would be, though.

Might have been a good idea but now Mrs. Brolin is too old for the part and wouldn't do it anyway. She is too choosy now to even choose this anyway. I even wonder if she will be appearing as Actress in any more films. Director, Yes, But maybe not Actress. That said, She can always run for Mayor now and beat Arnie.

Jule Styne approached her about doing a tv version of it in the 80s and she turned it down - she took a look at the script and said that it just reeked of Ethel Merman.

She is not too old and yes I think she would be wonderful. However, it was not a TV version that she was approached to do it was a feature film remake and she was seriously considering it until Bette made the TV version. Too bad because I have always thought she would be the BEST Mama Rose ever. [My second choice: Patti LuPone]. Liza would have been wonderful, too, in her prime.

In that 3 years she did have her neck done I know. She wore a DK on Oprah with a collar up to her chin to hide it.
