She has been an actress in one form or another for the whole of her life, and despite having lived in South Africa for many years, people still remark on her manner and perfect accent as being just like Julie Andrews! One of the greatest compliments one could pay her.

    teppo - Her manner may be partly down to her family upbringing. She was the oldest child (and the only girl) in the family with several younger brothers. I think girls in that situation tend to act as secondary mothers and are used to bossing their irritating siblings around :) I have watched a lot of her interviews and she always seems patient and polite, even when asked the same old questions again and again by unimaginative interviewers. Not only a supremely talented lady but one who seems genuinely 'nice' (and that is not a dismissive label).

    Although she had never made a movie before Poppins, she had a major role in what is considered the first ever TV movie, High Tor, way back in 1956 even before My Fair Lady opened. Followed by Cinderella watched by over 100 million people in 1957. Presumably Hollywood moguls never watched TV.

I heard Audrey's tapes and I really liked it: I am actually apposed to perfect singers in movie-musicals--I hate it actually, because their act fails.

    Thank you very much for posting these gems from your early shows. If I recall correctly, Your show was a departure from the mainlining of comedians and other performers that other shows spotlighted and made their staple, but was mostly comprised of true thinkers. On your show even the comics got substantive questions that often caused them to take off their mask(s). Watching it when I could , back then, let me know how palpably inadequate my education was. So, it discouraged me from dropping out. It wasn't until I review them now that I feel I don't need to source a thesaurus or dictionary as much. It simply was an adult, mature program not meant for prepubescent types like me at the time. Kudos! What a great legacy!

    Of course all female guests in a TV show are usually meticulously prepared in terms of appearance and makeup but my God, she is just absolutely radiant. A bit conservative clothing - even in those times - but she did have to maintain a very conservative, family-friendly image that was in sync with her own personality as well. Which by the way looks genuinely sweet and original. As for Cavett, he was gently trying to fish for juicy bits to make the show a bit more interesting. When he asked about any specific people that got in the way of her part in My Fair Lady, she is too kind to actually mention Jack Warner who had told Audrey Hepburn that Andrews wouldn't get the role even if Audrey had turned the part down. And he had led Hepburn to believe her own singing voice would be used in the movie, even after taking singing lessons and recording all of the film΄s songs. These were of course replaced almost completely with recordings of Marnie Nixon, as Hepburn learned - to her dismay - *after* the movie was ready. (She later decided to never do a movie again that her own singing voice would not be used in it if the role required it.) And she couldn't escape the comparison with Andrews's great singing voice, which probably cost Hepburn the Oscar nomination as well (which Andrews won for Mary Poppins on the same night). Andrews, in her speech that night, thanked Warner "for making all this possible" - an ironic remark about not giving her the role for My Fair Lady (which many people were expecting her to get), thus considerably boosting her chances of getting an Oscar for Mary Poppins as a kind of moral compensation for not getting the part she deserved in the 1st place. In an interview in '93 Andrews had said she considered this as the main reason for that Oscar - which of course is quite unfair if you see her amazing, classic performance.

    Producers and studio heads could be monsters, but even Walt Disney offered to postpone Mary Poppins to help her film My Fair Lady. Warner was not moved though. But they treated both her and Hepburn very badly. Maybe the song dubbing cost Hepburn the nomination and maybe all this affair gave Julie the award out of talent but also sympathy and support. I think Julie would win the award anyway for her performance but competition would be tougher if Audrey Hepburn was also a nominee. The other nominees, Debbie Reynolds, Ann Bancroft, Sophia Loren and another one which I forget now were probably good but their films were not high profile that year and are not iconic like My Fair Lady and Mary Poppins.

Julie Andrews won a a Golden Globe award for that year’s best actress in a musical or comedy a little over a month before the Academy Awards and it was in _that_ speech that she thanked Jack Warner. Warner, to his credit, laughed at the comment.

Once you have a part down it becomes tedious, and actors want to stretch their boundaries and try things that they aren't used to in order to see if they can transform into that role. Peter Cushing was a wonderful actor, but he was trapped in the same bad guy horror movie roles for years, which was sad as his range could have done so much more. You are only saying the "clean" image suits Julie better becasue you are conditioned by her most famous roles.
