Happy birthday Sarah Miles πŸŽ‚
πŸ“· Joanne O'Brien, August 1985
Miles received a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination for David Lean's Ryan's Daughter, 1970, but I think her best role was in Joseph Losey's The Servant, 1963

This was Miles' breakthrough year, with her role in Joseph Losey's The Servant.

@NPGLondon says this is by an unknown photographer. There were two wonderful photographers on the set: Douglas Kirkland & Bob Willoughby.

What a wonderful photo, by John Stoddart, of Robert Bolt & Sarah Miles, 1994. Miles & Bolt were married from 1967-76, but she came back to take care of him after his stroke, & the two were secretly re-married in 1988. They were together until his death in 1995.

I do a *lot* of walking on the streets of Victoria BC #YYJ. Thought I'd start a pedestrian thread πŸšΆπŸšΆβ€β™€οΈπŸ§΅
#ImWalkinHere
Except for our once or twice a year snowstorm, the worst weather problem for a Victoria pedestrian is the wind. I don't mind the rain if I can carry an umbrella.
#ImWalkinHere
Speaking of snow, it's the homeowners' responsibility to clear their sidewalks here. Maybe 2/3 do, but a neighborhood walk is still a dicey proposition. I'd be interested to know how many tickets are usually given, @CityOfVictoria - or is it more of a suggestion?

Self-portrait, 1954
