I know, I know; it appears that SCR is devolving—some would call it evolving, actually—into a kind of tony cheesecake site, but I assure you, it's all just a coincidence and the next image to post on this blog is sure to be something with less potential prurient interest. But in case you were wondering (and I have to say I really think you were), yes, that is young Helen Mirren above, younger even than in Powell's Age of Consent, doing a bit of faux-burlesque in the extraordinary object known as Herostratus, the subject of today's Foreign Region DVD Report, at The Auteurs'.

Glenn, to paraphrase the orderly from "The Right Stuff", any excuse to show a picture of Helen Mirren is "A-Okay".

The woman is simply divine. I just love her in 'O Lucky Man!'
