I worked on this movie, Angela Lansbury was model of excellence a true lady. I doubled for Angela on the ledge of the building and I also worked as AD and Special extra. To my surprise, Angela wrote a beautiful thank you note to me and autographed it. To this day I still have this note and the wonderful memory of meeting and working with such a wonderful lady. Thank you for the memories!

I love her and I have loved everything she has ever done on screen, TV and the stage! As for Mrs. Polifax series, it is enjoyable and so entertaining. Whoever cast Dame Angela as Mrs. Pollifax made an incredible match. Excellent movie! Wish like everyone else that the series could have continued.

It seemed our community had lost its mind! It was as scary as the fires. Good friends were nuts with crazy ideas. Well, they still are, but they aren't so scary now. We are too old to be much trouble😄 Well, i do hope you made it through. I am trying to remember where the fires were. Maybe Calfornia or Australia ? God bless you!@@janethartwig774

She was also in the Court Jester with Danny Kaye - it was a comical movie set in Merrye Olde Englande - with a "Robin Hood" them (the Black Fox). She was quite young in that one too. Of course she was also in Disney's Bedknobs and Broomsticks - quite good; and Murder She Wrote - which - although I loved the series - I didn't like the character she played too much (she seemed very 'know-it-all').

@tejaswoman 2 жыл бұрын

The first five or ten are absolutely delightful. Toward the end they drop off a bit. Initially as a kid I read the Reader's Digest condensed versions, and when I finally read the full-length ones as a teen, it was amusing to see I'd unwittingly spotted some of the cuts in that certain bits always seemed weirdly choppy to me. The one thing I will caution about is that if you binge them, you may start to notice that she uses certain distinctive adjectives and adverbs a little too often, in a way that a better editor would have caught, especially if she'd had the advantage of writing in the word-processing age (which with an author or editor do a quick search to see if memorable words recur too often). Gilman had a great skill for plot and character. _A Palm for Mrs. Pollifax_ is a particularly beloved re-read.

Sure, her shows all have some flavor of the old 1940's debutant fluff movies she starred in when young. But really...not so terribly far-fetched....As overloaded and slim on crime solving staff and tools as police departments commonly are, they can use all the real help they can get. Police do rely on objective, accurate witnesses. And of course her shows all have some humor and lightness to them....similar to those old movies. We could all use a bit of her brand of fluff sometimes LOL!

They missed a huge part of the book. There was SO much more to the story than this, especially the lengthy escape process. They also added stuff that was never even in the book or they combined several different books into one episode and mixed up the characters. It was still fun to watch this, but it was definitely somewhat confusing after reading the books.

I've watched this and will again many times as Angela & Ferral are as good as actors for the novel can be THESE days. For who knows what reason they truly SCREWED over Carstairs, Bishop, and left out a whole lot of other super characters. Please I hope everyone who watches READ the books by Dorothy Gilman. There is another movie Mrs. Pollifax with ROSALIND RUSSEL as the star it is filmed in ALBANIA and more closely follows the book. Though for some reason they SCREWED over again the great in books characters of Carstairs, Bishop and left out lots of others and put in others not in books. Well here is a vote for intelligent and decent movie entertainment.

My most favorite scene among tons is where Ferrell and Pollifax are in Paris Embassy and Ferrell is asleep with Pollifax is beside him playing solitaire and he wakes up and tells her the placement of the Jack in her solitaire. That whole scene deeply touched my heart showing that heart deep friendship can come about anywhere. Hope the movie companies realize there are people out here who haven't given up hope that such plots and actors still exist and someday more movies will be made. On an aside I do not know why they made the actor Bishop so stupid. He certainly isn't in the books. There is enough stupid in the initial interview scene, ah well not enough slips to wreck. They certainly destroyed Clive Cussler the author didn't. He was right to fight Sahara that was a waste. Again may someone please bring Pollifax back, I am an optimist that somewhere there are actors and actresses like these 4 as in Ferrell should appear frequently. I am wistful that anyone is still reading these posts sigh.

It's really well crafted, the characters are believable & really good, the mysteries interesting, with variety in the settings & plots. The pilot episode is nowhere near as good as the rest of the series. Don't judge by that one. They made her fluffy in that first one, then fixed it, & it never got tired, just better & better. There's good reason it ran as long as it did. It must be on here, it's on TubiTV free movie app, & your library either has it or can get it through interlibrary loan, it's popular with so many kinds of people.

I've only had time to skim this movie so far, but I can tell the plot is very different than the book by the same name. I enjoy this movie very much, though I also love the first movie starring Rosalind Russell and Darren McGavin. That earlier movie follows the book much more closely, and Darren McGavin's Mr. Farrell was much more like the book's version. Darren McGavin was like Angela Lansbury in that he was a brilliant actor and could do absolutely anything, including infusing wit and humor even into the most dramatic scenes.

Love the Mrs. Pollifax series, I have them all. This movie was a combination of two books and, while a good movie, it didn't really do either book justice. Ms. Lansbury is a gem! Great actress! She was perfect as Emily!!!

Chris Johnson. I'd like to add my thanks to you for providing this delightful film. I have watched it at least five times, possibly six. I have absolutely no complaints about the film. The only complaints I have are about the killjoys who just have to make such negative, disrespectful comments. I know and agree that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But I happen to also agree with the old adage that says, "If you can't find something good to say, then don't say anything." I loved Angela Lansbury as Mrs. Polifax VERY much. And I fell absolutely in love with Thomas Ian Griffith! His smile was just heavenly. Sigh. I also thoroughly enjoyed Ed Bishop as Bill Carstairs; having played as Ed Straker in UFO, he made a great CIA boss. Yes, I really enjoyed this film. Thanks again, Chris, for your time and effort in bringing us Mrs. Polifax! Sincerely yours, Paula M.

I totally agree. If you can't say something nice and encouraging then don't say anything at all!

@Hephzibah16 2 жыл бұрын

Aww, I didn't look it up and therefore didn't know which part Ed Bishop played. I thought it would be fun if he would have been cast as Bishop. But then, I had no idea who he was, my idea was just based on his name. 😄

I say that not sticking to how the characters are in the books is not being disrespectful but honestly honoring the MEMORY OF THE AUTHOR DOROTHY GILMAN!!!! May she REST IN PEACE

Angela Lansbury, ever delicious 💜. Like the way this movie displays so many of the ways verbal communications can be screwed up. Not quite as maddening as 'Who's on first'.

I have read every Mrs. Pollifax book. And I saw Mrs. Pollifax spy with Rosalyn Russell. And I must say I think Angela Lansbury‘s portrayal is spot on. With Rosalyn Russell they made it all about her not Mrs Pollifax. It was too hype that star which was nowhere near the character it should’ve been. Thumbs up to Angel Lansbury. I wish she would’ve done more. Mrs Pollifax books into movies.

Dame Angela Lansbury was an amazing actress. Thank you KZfaq for making this truly entertaining movie available for our viewing pleasure. When ever I see the name Angela Lansbury in the credits I always watch the movie, and I am never disappointed, always enjoy the movie. Why don't the movie studios make enjoyable entertaining movies with truly gifted and talented actors anymore?
