Friday 56: Anastasia

When you're ready to make a comeback after being publicly denounced in the U.S. Senate and you need that meaty role that'll win you a second Oscar... 

Anastasia 

"An opportunistic businessman tries to pass off a mysterious impostor as the Grand Duchess Anastasia, and she is so convincing that even the biggest skeptics believe her."

Starring: Ingrid Bergman, Yul Brynner, Helen Hayes 

Thoughts: Ingrid Bergman is often perfect and Anastasia is no different. I'm glad she won an Oscar for her performance and mounted her version of a comeback, on her own terms. What a badass!
