Summary
"Scotland-born actress Deborah Kerr (1921-2007) provided the cinema with memorable studies of English gentility. She projected a cool reserve and stoic nobility, often hinting at a passion and insecurity beneath the surface. Though she never won an Academy Award despite six nominations, Deborah Kerr received an honorary Oscar in 1994"--Provided by publisher.
