Actress Judi Dench has revealed that a famous person thought she would never succeed in the industry.
The legendary British actress, known for her talents and impressive wit both on and off-screen, made an appearance at last week's BAFTA Los Angeles Jaguar Britannia Awards, reported E!Online.
"I've never actually divulged who this person was but somebody very, very famous... Said to me, 'I'm so sorry but I need to tell you this. You'll never make a film because your face isn't quite properly arranged'," she shared onstage after receiving Albert R Broccoli Britannia Award for Worldwide Contribution to Entertainment.
The star-stdded event was also attended by Robert Downey Jr, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Emma Watson and Mark Ruffalo.
