Morning Glory

It wasn't just her lines or delivery. It was the way she commanded your attention, making you hang onto her every word. She had this aura, a mix of regal bearing and sharp wit, that made her utterly captivating. I remember watching her in those drawing-room scenes, her timing perfect, her expressions speaking volumes, and thinking, "This is what true mastery looks like."
