Happy Birthday to
Maggie Smith
75 today
I hate to use a Potter photo, but that's all Dame Maggie seems to be doing right now (and I expect it's where most people know her from these days). I've been a big fan of hers since seeing the BBC adaptation of Muriel Spark's Momento Mori in 1992, even writing a poem about her for an English project at school (aged 14)!

Ben,
Nice post. If most people today remember Maggie Smith from the "Harry Potter" films, then I think it is our duty to recommend "The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie", her Oscar-winner from
1969, also based on a Muriel Spark novel.
