| I just stumbled upon this film quite serendipitously by looking at an old 1970’s show book from Dallas Summer Musicals. I saw the actress, Charlotte Fairchild’s name and wanted to know more about her. My online search led me to this film doc and wanted to ask who else had watched it? It’s available on Amazon Prime. Interesting, funny, sad, the circle of life. | |

| I saw Charlotte Fairchild in Mr. President back in 1962. She was standby for Nanette Fabray and was on for her the night I went to the show. IBDB says that she died in 2013 in Englewood, NJ, so she was likely a resident of the Actors' Home at that time. | |

| The way I got to this point... I have a show book from Dallas Summer Mudicals 1970-something where Juliet Prowse starred as Mame and Charlotte Fairchild was Vera Charles. I have a tendency to go through actor bios and google search the actors out to see more of who they are. Finding Ms Fairchild in this manner has been very rewarding. | |

| I watched it on our local PBS station not long ago. I found it very moving. Sad, yes, but also very life-affirming. Charlotte was quite lovely and wonderful in the documentary. | |

| This reminds me of the early scene in SLINGS & ARROWS Season 3... staging a production of DREAM in a home for retired actors... very touching moment. | |
