Also on hand is Angela Lansbury, who shines as Velvet’s older sister Edwina, who is more interested in boys than anything else (on a side note: That’s a barely recognizable Terry Kilburn, probably best known for his performance as Tiny Tim in the MGM version of A Christmas Carol, as Edwina’s boyfriend). www.classicsondvd.com /natlvel.htm   (519 words)
