Once you become aware of Pauline you can't help but notice her. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't realise she had been a choreographer on The Amazing Mr Blunden, one of my favourite films from childhood. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toast 16,232 Posted September 7, 2023 Updating for the death of the lovely John Cairney. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-66739513 John Cairney speaking in 2012 about A Night to Remember (1958): "It's one of my favourite films and it seemed like a really big film to me at the time. It was a lovely story all about the realism of what could have really happened. Cameron's Titanic (1997) is very different. I think it began life as a film about the shipwreck and developed into the feature film. Theirs was very hi-tech, ours was high heart. Leonardo DiCaprio played the same part I did, which was obviously fattened out for him. But it was the lower-class guy falling in love with the girl and the class borders being broken down and, while the steerage class were locked in, my character found a way out, and so did DiCaprio's. The difference was, he was paid thousands of pounds a second and I was paid £20 a day. I think Cameron forced him into some underwater feats I could never have done and they are very different films... I really enjoyed A Night to Remember (1958), and it has lasted so well. It was film number four of my seven-picture deal with Rank at Pinewood. We would finish one, have a quick break and move on to the next one. The first I knew about it was when I was asked if I could do an Irish accent." 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
