 Film | Fritha Goodey
The actor Fritha Goodey, who has died aged 31, was conspicuously and classically beautiful, but it was clear that her talent ran deeper than outward show.
Goodey's was a successful career just waiting to burst into the big time; one special role would have done it.
This was Fritha Goodey, and the tragedy of her death (she left a suicide note in the Notting Hill apartment where she was found) reinforces the poignancy of her too brief and more than promising career.

IN AN all too short career, Fritha Goodey was on the threshold of establishing herself as an actress of real note.
Goodey joined Stafford-Clark’s Out of Joint touring company in 1999 for the Ravenhill play in which she was a sensual nightclub dancer.
Goodey also played with them Mrs Garrick (the wife of the actor) in a new play - A Laughing Matter - in which she kept a close eye on her philandering husband and then broke into an entrancing solo dance at the end of the first act.

 Tragedy of the successful actor who set herself such high standards Independent, The (London) - Find Articles
ALTHOUGH NOT a household name, Fritha Goodey boasted an impressive CV for a rising actor and was on the brink of what many saw as the biggest breakthrough of her professional career.
But underneath the warm and friendly demeanour and her career as a dedicated actor, she was fighting the demons that may have finally overwhelmed her: for many years, she had suffered from bouts of anorexia, which was accompanied by a sense of failure and a low self- esteem and once almost killed her.
Goodey, 31, who had appeared in a large number of film, stage and television parts, was in the middle of rehearsals for her major role in a new production of Terence Rattigan's play, Man and Boy, starring opposite David Suchet and directed by Maria Aitken.

The emphasis on male insecurity and sexual ambivalence, while deriving from Proust, echoes Pinter's Old Times.
But each episode is rendered with clarity and there is a clutch of fine performances from David Rintoul as a solidly dignified Baron Charlus, Fritha Goodey as Swann's faithless but beautiful Odette, Janine Dusvistki as the upwardly mobile Madame Verdurin and Jill Johnson as a succession of high - chinned aristocratic snobs.
It may not be the whole of Proust; but the evening offers a vivid, lovingly created theatrical epitome that highlights his ruthless social comedy and his obsession with what Beckett called 'that double-headed monster of damnation and salvation-Time.'
