Julie Walters.

[reddotmum]

Gosh! I hadn't realised how great Julie Walters is! I'm watching National Treasure. She's a great Actress. I'm so impressed by her. How did I not see this before. When I think of her I think of Mama Mia

She is fantastic.

It's over 30 years old now but, if you get a chance, you should watch "Educating Rita"

Her & Michael Caine are outstanding in it.

She's wonderful but I don't like her at all in National Treasure, her accent is so distracting and unnecessary.

But don't you find her accent keeps changing in National Treasure? She's a real Irish mammy one minute then the next her face is much younger and her accent's gone!

I thought she was meant to be Scottish!

I thought she was Irish but had taken in some of his Scottish accent. They are similar.

Love her in Prick Up Your Ears, one of my favourite films

I thought she's meant to be Scottish as well! Although in the flashbacks when she's being played by the ex-EastEnder (Natalie I think her name was), I don't think the accent is the same.
Her portrayal of the conflict she feels about her daughter is excellent. I think she's one of our best actresses - fabulous in comedy with Victoria Wood and also a skilled dramatic actor.
