I just learned today that the Academy-Award winning actress, Anne Bancroft, died last June 6, 2005 of uterine cancer at 73. She wasn't exactly my favorite but it was a delight to watch her on screen. She was one fine actress, I should say. She became famous via The Graduate opposite Dustin Hoffman as Mrs. Robinson. The films I saw her in were Great Expectations, Torch Song Trilogy, G.I. Jane, Home for the Holidays, How to Make an American Quilt, The Assassin (aka Point of No Return), and Agnes of God.
Rest in peace, Madam Anne...
