Helen Mirren feels ‘incredible’ after cementing place in Hollywood history
April 6th, 2011 - 5:51 pm ICT by ANILondon, April 06 (ANI): Dame Helen Mirren is ‘blown away’ by the fact that she has cemented her place in Hollywood history.
The actress insists her recent hand and feet ceremony outside Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood completes the triple for an actress - and she still can’t believe her prints are in the cement outside the landmark
alongside her movie heroes and heroines.
“When I first came to Los Angeles the first place I went to was Hollywood Boulevard and Grauman’s Chinese Theatre. I went and looked at Joan Crawford’s hands and feet and the whole history of American filmmaking is encapsulated in that one little area,” the Daily Express quoted her as saying.
“That street to me has always been a street of dreams and personally I’m thrilled that the Oscars are back on Hollywood Boulevard (at the Kodak Theatre). I think that’s where they should be.
“To find myself so many years later that my hands and feet are gonna be there, I’m absolutely blown away by it. Becoming a Dame, fantastic; winning an Oscar, amazing; hands and feet, incredible!,” she added. (ANI)
