Her EMMY was well deserved. Roddy Mc, was also great in his composite role of the gays that Mae West befriended. Ann Jillian is also a champion of gay rights and like Mae West, both had a heart of gold. I'm proud to say that I own a copy of this film - and having watched the film several times, I can honestly say that your assessment of both it's director, Ann Jillian, & Roddy, is totally wrong. I hope you will take another look at this film and be right with the world and your loyal readers by correcting yourself. I enjoy your blog - thank you.<br />M/M Bert Johnson, Cinn.

While Ann Jilllan was more beautiful than Mae perhaps more talented, she still capured the real Mae West in every way. The story as told in the film was a loving protrait of Mae and I'm betting Mae West in Heaven was truly happy with the flm and especially with the multi-talented Ann Jillian. I learned that Ann did all her own singing as Mae and when I saw Ann Jililan sing in Atlantic City at Trumps Casino - wow, she's truly a great singer/dancer with a set of pipes! Thanks for letting me know about her coming to Houston. I'll be there!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
