My Take

Rutherford is the kind of actress I treasure: an unmistakable presence who made character work feel like the main event. Her rise after the war through Blithe Spirit and The Importance of Being Earnest proved that warmth and eccentricity could carry a film as surely as conventional glamour. Winning the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress and later being made a Dame confirmed what audiences already felt. What moves me most is that she flourished with age, owning the screen, stage and television well into her later years. She is a reminder that real charisma has nothing to do with being young.
