Since she was fluent in both tongues there was none of the stiffness that many actresses have when performing in a language that isn't her first. All that being said I liked her in the American version best probably because I saw that first but also it being in my native language it was easier to put up the nuances.joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4141871469594180795.post-28416458327758746102016-01-29T18:06:34.103-05:002016-01-29T18:06:34.103-05:00I love both La Cage and The Birdcage (love when Ha...I love both La Cage and The Birdcage (love when Hank Azaria's character has to wear shoes).
