The smooth transformation from one actress to the next is an outstanding and effective technique.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><a href="http://www.boreme.com/boreme/funny-2007/women-in-film-p1.php" target="_blank">80 Years of Female Portraits in Cinema</a></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">And just in case you don&#8217;t recognise some of the faces, the list below is their order of appearance in the video. How many do you actually recognise <em>without </em>referring to the list? I have highlighted every second name to make the list easier to read.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Mary Pickford -<strong> Lillian Gish</strong> &#8211; Gloria Swanson -<strong> Marlene Dietrich</strong> &#8211; Norma Shearer -<strong> Ruth Chatterton</strong> &#8211; Jean Harlow -<strong> Katharine Hepburn</strong> &#8211; Carole Lombard &#8211; <strong>Bette Davis</strong> &#8211; Greta Garbo &#8211; <strong>Barbara Stanwyck</strong> &#8211; Vivien Leigh &#8211; <strong>Greer Garson</strong> &#8211; Hedy Lamarr &#8211; <strong>Rita Hayworth</strong> &#8211; Gene Tierney &#8211; <strong>Olivia de Havilland</strong> &#8211; Ingrid Bergman &#8211; <strong>Joan Crawford</strong> &#8211; Ginger Rogers &#8211; <strong>Loretta Young </strong>- Deborah Kerr &#8211; <strong>Judy Garland</strong> &#8211; Anne Baxter -<strong> Lauren Bacall</strong> &#8211; Susan Hayward &#8211; <strong>Ava Gardner</strong> &#8211; Marilyn Monroe &#8211; <strong>Grace Kelly</strong> &#8211; Lana Turner &#8211; <strong>Elizabeth Taylor</strong> &#8211; Kim Novak &#8211; <strong>Audrey Hepburn</strong> &#8211; Joanne Woodward &#8211; <strong>Shirley MacLaine</strong> &#8211; Natalie Wood &#8211; <strong>Angie Dickinson</strong> &#8211; Janet Leigh &#8211; <strong>Brigitte Bardot</strong> &#8211; Sophia Loren &#8211; <strong>Ann-Margret</strong> &#8211; Julie Andrews &#8211; <strong>Raquel Welch</strong> &#8211; Tuesday Weld &#8211; <strong>Jane Fonda</strong> &#8211; Julie Christie &#8211; <strong>Faye Dunaway</strong> &#8211; Catherine Deneuve &#8211; <strong>Jacqueline Bisset</strong> &#8211; Candice Bergen &#8211; <strong>Isabella Rossellini</strong> &#8211; Diane Keaton &#8211; <strong>Goldie Hawn</strong> &#8211; Meryl Streep &#8211; <strong>Susan Sarandon</strong> &#8211; Jessica Lange &#8211; <strong>Michelle Pfeiffer</strong> &#8211; Sigourney Weaver &#8211; <strong>Kathleen Turner</strong> &#8211; Holly Hunter &#8211; <strong>Jodie Foster -</strong> Melanie Griffith &#8211; <strong>Sharon Stone</strong> &#8211; Meg Ryan &#8211; <strong>Demi Moore</strong> &#8211; Julia Roberts &#8211; <strong>Uma Thurman</strong> &#8211; Sandra Bullock &#8211; <strong>Julianne Moore</strong> &#8211; Diane Lane &#8211; <strong>Nicole Kidman</strong> &#8211; Catherine Zeta-Jones &#8211; <strong>Angelina Jolie</strong> &#8211; Charlize Theron &#8211; <strong>Reese Witherspoon</strong> &#8211; Gwyneth Paltrow.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-659" style="margin-left: 8px; margin-right: 8px;" title="Racing Stripes" src="http://madamzebra.me/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Racing_Stripes.jpg" alt="Racing Stripes" width="150" height="225" />I am a big fan of the movie &#8220;Babe&#8221; and was in absolute heaven when &#8220;Racing Stripes&#8221; (using a similar concept with the animals talking), was released in 2005. It has become one of my favourite films. I was however, initially perplexed that a Zebra had been able to be trained for the part. From my own research into Zebras, I was under the impression that they are a difficult animal to train, and in fact in some literature I came across, it was suggested that it was virtually impossible to train a Zebra. Imagine my surprise when I discovered a Zebra <em>HAD</em> been trained and the trainer was not only an Australian, but grew up in Queensland. What a small world we live in.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Not long after the film was released, there was an excellent interview with Ian Bostock and Laura Haig published in my local newspaper, the <strong><a href="http://www.goldcoast.com.au/" target="_blank">Gold Coast Bulletin</a> </strong>on 27th January 2005 which offers a fascinating insight to their training of this wild animal.</p>
<p>You can read more information about Ian Bostock in an interview conducted on 10th December 2007 with <a href="http://www.abc.net.au/queensland/conversations/stories/s2114655.htm?queensland" target="_blank"><strong>ABC Queensland</strong>.</a></p>
