Natasha Perry, a sophisticated and beautiful actress, inherited her talent and profession from her father, Gordon Perry, the famous British director Gordon Perry. Natasha was born in London on December 2, 1930. In her youth, even before her first film roles, she played in the theater, and the first film with Perry was called “Dance Hall”.
In her professional life, Natasha Perry preferred theater to cinema, and if she acted in films, she chose roles that were winning, although not of the first plan. One of them is
Midnight Lace (1961), where Natasha played the girlfriend of Dori Day, and Perry’s special work was the adaptation of Romeo and Juliet (1968, directed by F. Zefirelli).
According to critics, the best way to make William Shakespeare’s works modern is to create movies based on them. Zefirelli, taking up his great work, invited the best of the best to the picture, and Natasha Perry was among them. She and the director gave Signora Capulet such features that this image became difficult to consider secondary. Juliet’s mother, being much younger than her husband, is forced to behave respectably, to conform to him, but her ability to love has not yet been extinguished, and the secret of the Signora is seen in Natasha’s black eyes when she turns to Tybald at a ball: here he is, the object of her passion! The mystery becomes apparent when Signora Capuletti, without remembering herself, shouts with rage at the murdered Tybald, demanding revenge from the duke. This small scene is played with such a tear, so emotionally, that it is not inferior in strength to the culminating scenes of Shakespeare’s play.
After “Romeo and Juliet” Natasha Perry has repeatedly appeared in television versions of Shakespeare’s works, becoming a voluntary “captive” of the work of the brilliant playwright. Personal life of the actress to some extent became a continuation of professional: in 1951, Natasha Perry became the wife of director Peter Brook. Their daughter, Natasha Brooke, also became an actress. /
