I would think Shriver is too slow of foot to play even an older Aunt
Dahlia. How about Killie Bean Jing, er, Billie Jean King with her
rah-rah cheerleading?
Egads, no! The woman seems to have absolutely no sense of humour,
and that just won't do when it comes to playing Aunt Dahlia. (This
thread on casting makes me have visions of Steffi as Madeline Bassett
waxing poetic about "God's daisy chain".)
My turn to say: Egads, no! Steffi isn't nearly drippy and sappy and
moon-eyed enough to play The Bassett. Maybe Honoria Glossop: strong
and sensible, able to mould her men.

always seemed nicer, so I had to cast Chrissie as Agatha and
Martina as Dahlia. :-)
Actually, the comic potential of MN in a marcel wave and editing
a publication called "Milady's Boudoir" has it's possibilities.
Hee...although it must be pointed out that Madame Evert has -- um,
how do I say this in as gentlemanlike a manner as possible? -- more
"experience in ze matters of ze boudoir".
The line was long, but it moved quickly. Still, MN wasn't exactly a
one-partner type of woman herself. And back to CE, apparently she
and Steffi can get along for at least a little while, because they've
sat together in the stands at last year's USO and this year's Delray
Beach. Probably swap stories about their kids.
