Somewhere recently, perhaps it was last week's episode of Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me, I heard a discussion impugning Margaret Thatcher's womanhood, so it amused me to see this aside in a New Yorker look at director David Lean:
("She is all woman, all woman, all woman!" he hissed excitedly to Alec Guinness as they surveyed the Prime Minister during a soirée at 10 Downing Street. "And heavens, with his experience he would have known," Guinness added later in his journal.)
