Joe M,Yes, Anne Bancroft was versatile and had a strong, but refined presence. Very smart too. "The Miracle Worker" was a perfect role for her. "The Graduate" was an important movie for me when I saw it as a kid.
I met Anne Bancroft once as I'm friends with her interior decorator. In fact I'm supposed to see- or was supposed to see her and Mel Brook's house on June 22 and meet the photographer. The house has been photographed for "Architectural Digest", but in view of this event, I wonder now whether it will be published.
There are too few actresses today with Bancroft's solidity and intelleigence. Also, a wonderful person, compassionate, humourous, and engaged.
