Film I was so sorry to here about the death of Deborah Kerr. She appeared in many of the great films of old (or classic) Hollywood
as this AP obituary describes. I notice that the article is quite block capitals about making sure we understand how to pronounce her surname: "Kerr (pronounced CARR) was the only daughter of a civil engineer and architect who died when she was 14." It reminds me of
Sleepless in Seattle (which was inspired by
An Affair To Remember) and the few unscripted moments when the various characters have to tussle over how to pronounce her Kerr's name. It seems wrong that this was how I was introduced to her. At least I'm there now and know what a great actress she was.
