i be a big fan of auntie mame with rosalind russell . she really be the perfect actress to play that character . i have hear angela lansbury be very good on stage in mame but it hard to imagine anyone top rosalind russell . lucy be such a great comedienne that her comic bit salvage her performance in this movie where i think she be miscast really and they should have dub her singing voice hear these song sing at a fast tempo and with strong voice really change the whole effect . i just saw the stage revival in washington d. c. and i think christine baranski be very good a mame and harriet harris the nasty chain smoking agent on frasier play vera and she be particularly good . both would be good casting for a tv movie of this show . maybe if that production make it to broadway they will consider film it . also i think tracy ullman would be good a agnes .
