As usual I am not like everybody else. While everyone else cheers for Bonnie Raitt, I am thinking back on the life of the great actress Colleen Dewhurst. Known as "the Queen of the Eugene O'Neils." began her career during wartime at an all girls' school. She became known as the Queen of the Eugene O'neills Due to the thunderous critical and audience acclaimed performances she gave in O'Neil's; Performances that would bring her 2 Tony awards for Best Actress. On the big screen she was kind of Loki, keeping keeping her involvement personal. She was married to Oscar winner George C. Scott twice. They used to fight makeup and then fight and make up. Those 2 marriages produced a son named Campbell, who is an actor in his own right. You might remember her in movies like ice castles and the boy who could fly And in television movies like the blue and the Gray. I was thinking about her tonight because I was thinking about an interview I read with her not long ago where she said she was always delighted with a great performance. She could even be satisfied with a bad performance . But she could never, ever, stand to think she had given a mediocre performance. Why, you ask? "Everybody remembers great. Everybody remembers bad. But nobody remembers mediocre, and I want people to remember me." I remember you Colleen.
