Wow! Had she been ill, or is this sudden?
I'm shocked.

Posted: 6/7/05 at 5:46pmI am flipping around trying to find news. They just had her picture up on the local NBC news, but I didn't catch the reason.

MSNBC is reporting she died of cancer at 73.
I didn't know she was sick.
So sad.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

I'm really sorry to nitpick like this, but I'm pretty sure her first name is spelled with an "e" at the end.
What terrible news.

It was a good day until now.
My mom looked like her and I always loved her.

Anne Sullivan. The mother in Torch Song. Two favorites, but so many others. Indelible. Such humor. So much depth.

Posted: 6/7/05 at 7:10pmShe and Mel Brooks were at the same performance of LA CAGE that my friend and I were at in January. She looked very small and frail. Quite frankly, I didn't recognize her until someone called her to my attention.

An incredible loss. Rest in peace Anne Bancroft.

Posted: 6/7/05 at 7:21pmShe was brilliant. Remember the opening song in TO BE OR NOT TO BE? And there is my favorite of them all - GARBO TALKS!
