Netflix Movies Starring Lisa Harrow
Intelligent and luminous red-haired Lisa Harrow was born in Auckland, New Zealand, on August 25, 1943. A scholarship from the New Zealand Queen Elizabeth II Arts Council is what sent Lisa studying abroad. Accepted by the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London, she later was invited to become a member of the Royal Shakespeare Company and, in her very first season (1969), portrayed "Olivia" opposite Judi Dench in "Twelfth Night". Assorted RSC credits included "Desdemona" in "Othello", "Anne Boleyn" in "Henry VIII" and "Portia" in "The Merchant of Venice". Earning a distinct reputation over time, she scored other successes with her "Juliet" opposite John Hurt's "Romeo", her "Eliza" in "Pygmalion", and as "the Queen" in "The Eagle has Two Heads", directed by actress Susannah York. In mid-career, Lisa began to grace occasional films. She appeared opposite Glenda Jackson in the Italian-made film The Devil Is a Woman (1974) [The Tempter], for which she won the Variety Club's "Most Promising Newcomer" award, and made a touching impression in the related period pieces All Creatures Great and Small (1975) and It Shouldn't Happen to a Vet (1976) [All Things Bright and Beautiful].
