when I saw her I was really surprised. I had imagined a linfatic sort of blond ectoplasm for Lucy, that got animated only when she could pound on an innocent piano the most heroic Beethoven, and than there was this incredible concentrate of feminine energy with the most beautiful mass of hair and an heart shaped face, not to talk of the mouth and of the eyes, sexy that more sexy it is impossible. Of course that the plot thickens. How she moved, like a cobra. Show business. I am sure that Forster would have loved that surprise. The man of the surprises.
