Betty?

The credits list Ruth Strahan as Betty, the housekeeper. I've seen this probably 20 times, and I'm pretty sure Betty is always only mentioned, never seen. Am I wrong, or did she have scenes filmed which didn't make the final cut?

I just started watching this movie (again), I just love it. Betty the housekeeper IS shown...very briefly....during the scene with Edmund Walker, Matty, and Heather, all having dinner.

Wow, thanks, good spotting, all the times i've seen i've never noticed her. Will watch out next time (and thanks for the reply, i posted ages ago and no one was weighing in!)

She’s also shown in the background sweeping the gazebo.
