Uncredited Actress...


Nobody seems to know the name of the actress that played the part of "The Lady With The Lamp" in the opening sequence. She's the one who runs away when the mouse appears.

This is killer trivia... Right up there with Pope John Paul being named an honorary Harlem Globetrotter.

the pope was named an honorary globetrotter?

What, you've never seen him dunk?

reply

Lots of times! Constantly!

. . . oh, I thought you said "drunk."

I'd also like to know who played the Mouse Lady (Columbia?)

reply

This is frustrating -somebody must have this fact buried in a file or payslip somewhere. It is interesting that the current Columbia lady looks just like Annette Bening (younger edition, circa Valmont).

It sort of depends on what movie you're seeing her in. Most of the time, it's housewife Jenny Joseph.

Does this enlighten you?

It seems the Wikipedia article I pointed to in May 2009 has since been edited to exclude the Identity section in my link, but here's a link to how it looked the last time it was present:

All that's left in the article now (at this writing) is at:
