Remember When We All Once Wanted To Be Angela Cartwright????????????????
A little childhood perfection, for a change, darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, my God, when "The Sound Of Music" was first released, in 1965, when I first saw it, I SO wanted to be Angela Cartwright, and Heather Menzies!!!!!!! Just look at this picture of Angela!!!!!! Have you ever seen a more perfect looking child????????????
No wonder we all wanted to look that way! However, life offers some lessons, because Angela, wonderful always, did not last this way forever. By the time she was playing Penny Robinson on "Lost In Space," she had grown taller, chunkier, had bangs, and while still Angela, was not the image of perfection as she was as Brigitta Von Trapp!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When it comes to childhood perfection, Angela still raises the bar high. I cannot think of any young performer who comes near her radiance. Just the memory of having once looked this way, let alone worked on one of the most classic films of all time.....oh, my God!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, a salute to the still wonderful Angela Cartwright!
We can still look in the mirror, and fantasize, girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
