Darlings, Frieda Inescourt's Perfomance In "The Return Of The Vampire" Is A Master Class In Style And Elocution!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


                                      Anyone having seen this film will want to dress and speak like Frieda as Lady Jane Ainsley.  Those stern clipped tones belie a warmth, missing in someone like, say Gladys Cooper, in one of her nasty roles.  But Frieda, no matter what film, is always beautifully modulated.  I would guess she was seen for the role of Lisa in "Now, Voyager," but that part went to Ilka Chase.



                                       Still, Lady Jane knows how to battle vampires, and safe enslaved werewolves' souls, as elegantly as giving an afternoon tea.  I think this film is on YouTube, so if you missed it last Saturday on "Svengoolie," see it there, and learn to behave and act like Frieda as Lady Jane!



                                        To start, practice saying "Sir Frederick" a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
