It’s difficult to think of an actress who more gracefully embodies the term “national treasure” than Judi Dench. With a television and film career encompassing almost six decades and well over 100 performances, the actress continues to choose projects that defiantly reject the expected roles for a woman growing older on screen. She is a four time BAFTA Award winner, and a seven-time Oscar nominee. She won an Oscar for her role as Queen Elizabeth I in Shakespeare in Love. With the force of her personality and the undimmed blaze of her intelligence, Dame Judi Dench is one of the most brilliant actresses to ever grace the stage and screen.
