Rosie


I'm rather surprised that no one seems to have mentioned the delightful scene, included obviously for the sake of a little comic relief, where the wonderful Thora Hird played the part of the notorious Rosie at the police station, where she went to report that she'd seen a creepy creature crawling up the wall. It's hilarious, and a good example of what a great character actress she was.

Plenty of overlooked gems in those wonderful old movies.

I've often wondered if Patricia Hayes based her portrayal of "Edna the inebriate woman" around Dora's piece.
