Reply With QuoteTo Sir With Love is actually my all-time favourite film though I'm a huge fan of most of Judy's work. Mulberry Bush is a great movie.
Prudence And The Pill and One Of Those Things are also worth checking out.
As a fan of the delightful Judy I thought I had found most of the sites on the internet with content pertaining to her but tonight I found that the shop in LA she owns and runs now has a website with some content written by her:
B L A N C H E ? Los Angeles ? Animals
I'd be curios if anyone from here has ever visited the shop? I would very much like to - I also wonder what the chances would be of actually meeting her in there if you were to visit. It would be lovely to tell her how much I have enjoyed her work and how many of us remember her many fine performances and films.
Earlier today I watched Mulberry Bush for the umpteenth time and still think it's a remarkable film - it certainly captures the feeling of being 17 again better than any movie I have ever seen. Judy is simply divine in it - indeed she is my ideal of physical perfection in it but having watched it since I was about 15 I find it alarming that at 40 it can still have such a powerful effect on me. What's worse is that while Judy remains in her prime at 17 in it I find it faintly depressing that my own youth seems such a dim and distant memory.
Oh to go back and do it all again...

Oh man what a cool shop she has! I've never been in it but the next time I am on the west coast will make a note to stop inside.
Cheers Saxon for posting Judy's magical website. The shop certainly would be worth a visit.
My favourite Judy Geeson film is 10 Rillington Place. That film grips me every time I see it. I also loved Judy In the film Inseminoid - or Horror Planet - even if it is an Alien rip-off.
Here We Go Round The Mulberry Bush was certainly a film I could relate to in my youth. I haven't seen it for a long time though. To Sir With Love was excellent and Judy played a superb part in it. Another film I really like Judy in - though once again I haven't seen it for years - is Three Into Two Won't Go. I'm an Andrea Newman fan and I find her observations on life very interesting. I also love the Hammer film, Fear In The Night. Psychological suspense is right up my street.
On TV I enjoyed watching Judy in Danger UXB. alongside Anthony Andrews. My favourite TV performance of hers has to be with Thriller. Her episode was "Night Is The Time For Killing" and in this she played a similar part to Fear In The Night whereby she'd had a breakdown and someone seemed to be trying to drive her mad. Another superb performance by Judy.
A brilliant actress with a lovely personality and loads and loads of sex appeal.
Wellendcanons.
10 Rillington Place & Fear in the Night.............both favourites of mine that feature Judy...
Thanks to hiss & pop

I watched Three Into Two Won't Go recently. Very well acted but looks quite dated now. Judy played a similar, if nastier, role in the explicit but gripping One Of Those Things with Roy Dotrice. Two Gentlemen Sharing is another excellent film of Judy's.
She also pops up in The Executioner which had the cast but didn't deliver the goods. Goodbye Gemini had its moments but its cult reputation is far better than the film itself.
Judy recorded a commentary with producer Peter Snell for the new region 1 Goodbye Gemini DVD.
How about a concerted effort to inspire the TV mogols to run a series of 1970s films?
It's a wonder Judy didn't become a star on a Julie Christie scale. I thought she made a good action heroine in The Eagle Has Landed and had a plum role in Branigan with John Wayne. The was also the acclaimed tv series Danger UXB with Anthony Andrews
There's an interview with Judy on the Anchor Bay Inseminoid disc (in the Norman J. Warren coffin box).
One of my all time favourite actresses. I'd love to see To Sir With Love given a special DVD treatment.
