    A great hidden talent of the past. hide show

    I am a deployed soldier in Iraq. I am becoming viewing the old series soap on DVD. Also I do remember the show from seeing it on TV in the 70. I had forgotten how talented Diane is. To me she shows enormous range in her abilities. She can deliver the punch line of a joke and a few minutes later be involved in some heavy handed drama play convincingly. Also I do think she has an amazingly inter beauty that jumps out in her performance. I think that beauty shows the most through her eyes and facial expressions. To me such inner beauty if far more sexy than any body part. It is a shame that her career did not take off like some others from the soap show.
