    Not the greatest Glenda Jackson role by a longshot (she’s woefully miscast IMAO) however ANY Glenda is better than NO Glenda.. For a far better impersonation and biopic of the legendary stage actress try SARAH (1971) with the incredible Zoe Caldwell in the title role.

      Where is the Zoe Caldwell SARAH available? I saw it on PBS in the ’70s and have wanted to watch it again.
