Dame Angela Lansbury passed away at the age of 96 earlier this week, and while she's going to be remembered most for her amazing stage, film, and television career, I've been finding myself delighted by her 1980s workout video called Angela Lansbury's Positive Moves: My Personal Plan for Fitness and Well-Being.
Yes, the Murder She Wrote star followed in the footsteps of Debbie Reynolds by releasing a workout tape presumably aimed at women of a certain age, although the moves Lansbury demonstrates can benefit anyone. Some moments are amusing, such as when Lansbury introduces us to "land swimming", an exercise move she came up with herself, and "moving freely", where she manages to keep a straight face while dancing in a peach-colored jumpsuit to the tape's synthesizer background music.
