After seeing THE DEBT, Linda Holmes in "Monkey See," the pop-culture blog for NPR considered "Twenty Iconic Male Movie Roles In Which Helen Mirren Would Have Ruled." After all, as Holmes notes, "I enjoy her in pretty much everything, including interviews, and that as far as I'm concerned, it's a crying shame that I haven't seen her in more enormously famous movies." Here are a few of her thoughts:
James Bond. If you don't think Helen Mirren could snap Pierce Brosnan like a twig and/or outdraw him and/or figure out how to poison him with a martini with him being none the wiser, we are not friends.
Butch Cassidy, Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid. I love the idea of a Brit in a Western. And her on a horse. Yay!
