Lucy is impressive as a homeless woman living on the street., 30 December 1998
Author: NJtoTX from Austin, TX

It's hard to imagine Lucy as anything but a comedienne. But at the age of 74, she took on a serious role of a homeless woman trying to survive on the streets and played it authentically.

There's no glamour or comedy here. Any doubts about Lucy's acting ability are quickly dispelled.
