Anne Bancroft dead at 73.

One of the formative performances of my cinema obsession was Bancroft in The Graduate, still one of my favorite films ever. Manipulative but brittle, she really made the movie more than a movie - it was an icon.

A brilliant actress. She will be missed.

Bummer! I loved her.

Mel Brooks and I are sad tonight.

I just heard Mel Brooks on NPR not too long ago talking about how they'd managed to stay married so long. That's very sad. :(

She was a gifted actress. With you on the "she will be missed".
