It all started with Liza at the Palace (for me anyways). I thought who is this woman? I must know more about her. Slowly but surely I found clips here and there, I finally watched Funny Face, and even read Eloise for the first time. Kay Thompson is unlike anyone else. Check out my blog I did about, and of course read Sam Irving's book if you haven't. Happy Birthday Kay!
She is absolutely brilliant in Funny Face and totally blows Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire off the screen. You simply don't look at anyone else once she is on screen. Great talent!
