I applaud you. You're the only one except for voting for me that gets any of my votes! You have the look, the feel, the disciplines. You got it all! Where are you in Studio City? Wonder if we ever met in some of these casting calls. I'm in Beverly Hills. Wish you the best. Hope you win.

Leave it to Ms. Reynolds for the style, presentation and talent. I give her all my love and support. She deserves this role and any role she aspires for; she's a dedicated, workaholic-actress!
Look at her poise here!

Pretty good, but I'm amazed at the number of Draper's who miss the line "Do you know what happiness is?" She says, "What is happiness?" Others make their own versions. It's such a well written show, you have to think that the writer's selected particular words and turns of phrases for good reason.

Perfect example of an actress acting. No commitment to the character, appears as if she forgets her lines a couple times, and if you are going to use a prop IE-cigarette, use it correctly. It's painfully clear you don't smoke. Though this is really a contest about how many friends you have to vote for you, not really about talent, so you may have a chance yet.

I think you are a wonderful actress, Elizabeth, and did a really nice job with don draper. You deserve to be in the finals here, and much more. (If I were splitting hairs, I do agree in theory with Lou Al Cinder's general comment about the integrity of the written word. I'm not sure Lual quoted it exactly as written either.) You nailed the intention and have such rich emotional support in your rendition, that I think the writers would let you slide on this one. Nora Paradiso overlooked it and gave you her stamp of approval! Good luck.

I have to agree with Tandrews above, you did flub the line about Happiness (an important one - it's a QUESTION not a statement) and you left out the last line. Can't understand that; b/c the writing on this show is brilliant and does not need any tweeking. Also, Don Draper says that last line twice in the end, you did not. The writing on this show is superb and I'm not sure why you changed up the lines. The writers would not have let that slide on the set I'm sure. On a positive note, you really captured the mood and did a fine job otherwise. Best of Luck.

People always try to tear down the best eh?

We all know Elizabeth did exceptionally well.

Just an actor, a stage curtain and a monologue. No fancy editing...just beautifully captivating.

Is this a deleted scene from Season 1? I had to watch it again - you "speak" volumes about Draper. Very nice, Elizabeth!

You're still my favorite. Best of luck!!!!!!!!!!

Elizabeth - Yours was my favorrite "Don" clip. Sorry I can't give you my vote - that's going to one of the Joan's - but I thought your acting was great and I certainly wouldn't be disappointed to see you win.

Best of luck, Elizabeth!

You are so sixties cool, yet tragic. A very engaging performance. Definitely among my favorites in keeping with the straight approach to this scene. You are a contender to be reckoned with... Good luck!
