Angela Lansbury, one of my favorite actresses, turns 90 today! She came to the United States in 1940 and began studying acting. She moved to LA and got roles in "Gaslight" and "The Picture of Dorian Gray" based on the novel by Oscar Wilde, who was also born on this day in 1845.
Dame Angela has won five Tony awards and six Golden Globes. She's been nominated for a Best Supporting Actress Oscar three times.
Although I loved her in "Murder, She Wrote", her performance in "The Manchurian Candidate" is one of the best in all filmdom.
