- (2014) When I reviewed the raw footage of my improvised filming, it seemed to me unworthy of preparing for publication because it seemed overweighed with my observations, especially in matters seemingly of interest to no one but Lynn and I. However, friends who sampled the raw footage urged me to edit it. I addressed the footage about two years later. I was happy I did. Norman Frizzle

I saw Lynn Seymour dance Juliet at the Royal Opera House late 70's - blew my mind.
A strange video mainly dominated by Norman. Lynn Seymour, although living in a home full of memories, did not come across quite as one would anticipate.
Having followed the history of 'The Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo'. The artiste's there that began in the infant years of the company, from Markova/Dolin, remained quite close and either performed character roles into their 80s and 90s, like Franklin and Plattoff, or opened ballet schools. Their lives and senior years revolved around ballet as the axis. When asked why? The reply was cheekily "What else would I do?"
I wholeheartedly agree regarding making film archive and always have. It is a remarkable tool for younger up and coming generations and can say and show more than any number of descriptions or words ever could.
Thank goodness for the brave pirates of the past for capturing their golden gems.
Life is to short to worry about copyright (In a private collection). We will all be gone one day, then nobody can sue us, and the footage will be to valuable a legacy to destroy.
Graceful talented dancer and great actress too!
Wonderful to see Lynne, would have loved to have heard her speak more.
You can say that again.
Why on earth is there SO MUCH of YOU talking & talking & talking when we're here to hear HER memories and experiences and thoughts and opinions seeing you have a rare entree into her home and world....???? Sorry, sir....
The best of them all x
Loved this interview because of its digressions. P.s. madam legat ended up ina early victoriana mansion I Tunbridge Wells I knew one of her ballerinas at the time. I was 9 years old at the time
I believe ballet Rambert had its roots in madam Legats ballet school
The Pola Negri-Ben Turpin of dance. She was lauded for her camp acting onstage !
My Mother's first cousin. She danced the Gala at the 1978 Commonwealth games in Edmonton, AB. I was 12....... It is amazing to see recent video and to marvel at how much she is the spitting image of my Great-aunt Margorie, who we called Cug.....thank you for posting this!!
I knew Lynn's Mom Marjorie Springbett as well. I was not aware of the 1978 Commonwealth Games. At the time I was living in England where I saw Lynn on stage whenever she appeared, although I did not begin to know her until after I returned to Vancouver in 18981. So happy to read your comment, John, and I will relay it to Lynn who I'm sure will be delighted.
Is this about him or her?
Rather odd interview. She.looked to have had quite an nteresting home with all those pictures and photographs.....would of been great if she talked more about them
She was cool in the little vampire in 86
Who is this interviewer??? Not allowing his subject to talk ..
She has nothing to say.
Lynn Seymour est toujours aussi belle élégante et juste dans sa personne comme dans sa danse .
You were correct originally. You talk far too too much...and interrupt. We would have really appreciated hearing her feelings and memories and experiences and opinions far, far more. Alas, you are not as well known as her as an artist.....so the end result is.....frustrating and rather unsatisfying, alas.....
She looks so bored at times. Polite listener, she is. Better than the rest of us....Oh, you really do go on and on, Sir Frizzle
Miss Seymour does not think too much of Osipova? She didn't say. Are your cameras and Broadway visits more important? Oh no. Now YOU'RE going to chit chat about Sir Fred...Why not let HER tell???? Poor woman nearly twitched her hands off.....
Kind lady, the great Lynn Seymour
@@tishhill9561 I composed a Work for Lynn, titled - Rashomon, ( in the early 70s )
The Lady was real easy to work with. Lynn had a dry humour as well.
Carabosse speaks!
She was the best .Edward Arckless
My god this man is so bad Edward Arckless
