Tracey Ullman: ‘My face is good for impersonations’
One of America’s most successful comic actors is back in Britain. Tracey Ullman tells Nigel Farndale why
At Tracey Ullman’s suggestion, we meet at a private member’s club around the corner from her home in Mayfair. In some ways this salubrious venue seems an appropriate setting, because according to the Sunday Times Rich List, the 55-year-old comic actor is worth £75m.
But in other ways it does not. The club is one of those places where you find yourself talking in muted voices so as not to disturb other members, and this doesn’t suit the voluble personality I’ve encountered in YouTube clips of Ullman on chat shows down the years. In those she’s very full on, an extrovert who seems more American than British, not least because she became a US citizen in 2006, after 20 years of living there.

The white man pathology | US news | The Guardian



Sanders’s exasperation was the principal fact to be communicated, more than any political content. Trump was about winning again. Sanders was about having lost. The vagueness of American politics is what astonished the outsider. It’s all about feelings and God and bullshit. Sanders actually uttered the following sentence out loud: “What we’re saying is when millions of people come together to restore their government we can do extraordinary things.” Nobody asked what he meant. Nobody asked for numbers. They applauded. Better to take it in the spirit in which it’s given, like a Catskills resort comedian.Sanders reminded me of a line from Seinfeld, maybe because Larry David’s SNL parody was only a few days’ old. “The sea was angry that day, my friends, like an old man trying to send back soup at a deli.” When Ben and Jerry make a Bernie Sanders ice cream, I hope it’s chili and ginger: the delicious hot flavour of nasal-passage clearing outrage.

Video: Good Samaritan Gives Stranger Shirt Off His Back On Subway
In this post-Zardulu world, it’s increasingly difficult to tell what is real and what is a beautiful dream in a drab waking universe. But putting aside the nature of reality, it’s still always nice to see New Yorkers extending acts of kindness to one another. One man says he spotted just such an exchange on Friday, when he captured video of an alleged good Samaritan taking off his shirt and giving it to a shirtless straphanger. [ more › ]
