I'm saddened to hear this. I was a great fan of hers. She was so good and so beautiful in the film of "Madame Bovary."

I'm glad I got to see her on stage in the City Center's production of "The Country Girl." I wish I could have seen her on Broadway in "Portrait of a Lady."

She managed to bring a bit of sentiment and humanity to the unsentimental and special effect laden The Towering Inferno.
