Love her!

ust saw Taste of Honey again. Rita Tushingham is great! She's is from Liverpool and the Scouser accent has always been my favorite! She went onto worldwide fame in the '60s with Girl with Green Eyes, The Knack, and of course Doctor Zhivago, but then seemed to go away, but she's been acting up to the present!

The British Film Industry collapsed in the 70s and I'm wondering if that's the reason she stopped getting good roles in good films. There is a lot of TV work and she's never stopped acting - including Stage work, but her iconic roles are all in the 60s.
