She just has this special aura about her, where you feel like she's so very likeable and kind, but at the same time, you'll never really get to know her or become her best friend. Perhaps it's that accent, I don't, but in a small way she intimidates me. But she's so utterly gracious and soft-spoken all the time too...She's a true lady, in this era of Jessica Simpsons and Britney Spears. Havs That’s exactly how I feel about it too.

Thanks for sharing the review. Like you I would be interested in knowing about her life from the Mary Poppins movie onwards, but I think the background that she came from is also interesting given that she's so gracious and seems very grounded - unlike many other celebrities. There again this is Julie Andrews, THE Julie, she's not really a celeb, she's an icon! :) This is certainly one I’ll be adding to my list! Thanks for sharing the review.
