Miss Havisham's Character

I am very lucky to have my mother as Miss Havisham. This will be a great challenge for me, as my mum will be arriving from Spain the day before the shoot. She will be tanned, so i will have to try my hardest to make her look pale and fragile. 
From researching deeply about Miss Havisham, i imagined her age to be 40-50, so i thought my mum would be perfect for her character. Another bonus is that my mum will let me experiment as much as i want on her. I will show Miss Havisham as pale, skeleton like, and as if she is crying out for help.
