We’ve already got at least two classic filmed iterations of the 1959 Stephen Sondheim-Jule Styne musical Gypsy. First was the 1962 movie starring Rosalind Russell as the ultimate stage mother, Mama Rose, and Natalie Wood, who went from stage performer Baby Louise to famous stripper Gypsy Rose Lee. Then came the 1993 made-for-TV version shown by CBS, with Bette Midler as Mama Rose and Cynthia Gibb as her ultimately rebellious ecdysiast daughter. It may sound heretical, but the TV version was much better, and Midler’s performance, in particular, a stunner. Now, imported from England, comes another version presented by TV – this time with Imelda Staunton as Mama Rose and Lara Pulver in the title role. Pulver comes by her strip-teasiness in this role naturally: She once played Irene Adler in Sherlock, famously flustering Benedict Cumberbatch’s Sherlock Holmes by receiving him stark naked. And Staunton’s TV credits, in England, go all the way back to The Singing Detective in 1986, where she played one of the fussy staff nurses.
