Movie: Babs (2017)
Film Synopsis:
This is the story of Dame Barbara Windsor, a Cockney child with a dazzling smile and talent to match. Preparing to appear at the theater one cold night in 1993, the mischievous and chirpy blonde Babs recounts the people and events that have shaped her life and career over fifty years from 1943 to 1993. She reflects on her lonely childhood and evacuation WWII, her decision to go from Barbara Ann Deeks to Barbara Windsor - inspired by the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, her complicated relationship with her father, her crumbling marriage to Ronnie Knight, catching the eye of Joan Littlewood and being the blonde bombshell in the film Carry On. Babs, ever the consummate professional, never let her fans down whatever her personal anguish was and strutted on stage to a standing ovation. Uploaded by: Freeman October 03, 2021 at 09:56 pm
