If Loudon's entire performance had been as good as the best parts of her performance, she would have been magnificent. As it was, she was sort of all over the place: brilliant in some scenes, interestingly different from Lansbury in others, and actually not good in some places. Probably in some past pots I've emphasized the positive. Still, there have been lots of excellent Mrs. Lovetts. For me, as I've said so many times here that I'm sure people are tired of reading it, no one has approached Carioiu's excellence. Or Merle Louise's, for that matter.
