NEW YORK - Lynn Redgrave, an introspective and independent player in her family's acting dynasty who became a 1960s sensation as the freethinking title character of "Georgy Girl" and later dramatized her troubled past in such one-woman stage performances "Shakespeare for My Father" and "Nightingale," has died. She was 67

Venessa is/was a filthy,worthless leftist.Wasn’t Lynn at least a bit more reasonable than that? I know essentially nothing about her.

I don’t know, but 67 is awfully young. Rest in Peace.

I dislike being uncharitable about the dead, but in fact, she and her family epitomized the brain-dead, corrupt hollywood leftist. In fact, the Redgraves were worse.

I can’t imagine any eulogies to people who idolized Hitler, yet I am sure some in Hollywood will still say kind things about those who idolized Stalin, Pol Pot, and Mao

Lynn was great, but didn’t get the exposure.

Vanessa was the Pro-Palestinian leftist who is a perfect clone for Obama - shallow, simple-minded blatherings of a social utopian.

AKA, Marxist.

Of all the Redgraves, Lynn was probably the most normal.

I never really did understand what the point of that movie was.

Oh, is that what she had? You know, I have known so many survivors, I guess it just depends.

I liked her, good actress.
I enjoyed the comedy TV show House Calls (I think it was called) where she worked in a hospital. Early ‘90s or ‘late ‘80s I believe. The show didn’t last long and that surprised me.
RIP

So young = UK’s NHS. Healthcare is pretty (as Levin would say) sh**ty. Guys in rock bands from England keeling over at 50 or 60.

ObamaCare will help the regime get rid of seniors and baby boomers sooner. The illegals will get the spoils which is what MCCain, Graham-nesty, Pawlenty, Rick Perry, Connie Mack the FOURTH, Rubio-Estefan, Jeb and other open-borders RINOs want.

Which movie? Georgy Girl with Charlotte Rampling as a co-star? I think anything with Charlotte Rampling was errant nonsense.

Oops. House Calls was on from 1979 to 1982. Time flies.

When she was diagnosed with Breast Cancer Stage 4 in 2002 and underwent a Mastectomy and Chemo.

It was thought she was going to beat this, until Oct. of 2009 when "a" condition required her to undergo treatment at Sloan Kettering.

I'm so sorry.

I liked when Paul Newman punched her in the face in 'The Verdict'.

Lynn was very pro USA. She loved her sister as a sister but thought Vanessa was nuts politically

Yes. My wife has beat it twice, thank God....It’s just plain nasty. I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.
