THE MOUTH THAT WOULDN’T LET GO: The acclaimed actress Billie Whitelaw, famous for her roles on stage and screen, died today in London at the age of 82. Whitelaw was one of the foremost interpreters of the works of Samuel Beckett, and the playwright described her as “the perfect actress.” She became his muse and inspiration, appeared in half a dozen of his plays, and once said “he used me as a piece of plaster he was molding until he got the right shape.” In this video, Whitelaw introduces her astounding performance of Beckett’s “Not I” at the Royal Court in 1973. https://youtube/watch?v=M4LDwfKxr-M
