Here’s Helen Mirren interviewed on the BBC’s Tonight show in 1976 about her role as a rock singer in David Hare’s play Teeth ‘n’ Smiles that was being revived in London’s West End. Just a couple of years later, I would take this gorgeous, fascinating, punked-out woman to the Mudd Club in downtown New York and dance with her until we were the last two people there and got kicked out at dawn by the cleaning guy. One of my life’s highlights. Ask me about it sometime. (Watch the BBC interview at dangerousminds.)
