Dench

I am a huge fan of Judi Dench, the actress. Her memoir and furthermore not so much. The book focuses pretty closely on her work and all the people she acted with. I must admit that I didn't finish it. I wouldn't want all the dirty secrets of her life, but felt this was a bit too removed for me.

I will say that her insights on performance would be very interesting to someone studying theatre. I am going to try the biography Judi Dench: With a Crack in Her Voice, which several reviews said are complemented by this stage story.
