Well, there’s another icon from my youth gone and yet here she was only 79 and I’m now just turned 70. She was a great actress and she certainly was in a lot of good movies.

Well, I guess we’re gonna be wondering who the next two or three people are that will pass away. Jack Nicholson is still with us at 86.

Michael WARNED her against taking sides against the family.

RIP, at 79, it is not really a tragedy.

She was good comedienne. Rest in Peace. She played Christopher Walken's sister in Annie Hall.

Is she part of the Robert Redford deadpool or is starting a new one?

She was very good. She made me absolutely loathe her portrayal of ‘Kay’ in the Godfather 2. Yuck, to think there are actual people like that.

Annie Hall may have been the cretin Woody Allen’s best work.

A lot of men of a certain age will remember falling in love with her at the time.

Is Woody Allen the Keith Richards of acting?

How is it not a tragedy?

Much too young.

And, yes ... RIP.

Michael told her all about the family business in the opening scenes. She was naive to think she wasn’t buying into it. Then the abortion in the 3rd movie-didn’t want a mafia child.
