    LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Actress Anne Bancroft, best known for portraying the seductive Mrs. Robinson in the 1967 film "The Graduate," has died in New York of uterine cancer, a representative for her husband, Mel Brooks, said on Tuesday. She was 73.

    Brooks' spokeswoman said the actress died on Monday evening at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York.
    Quite sad... :(

    Although to be honest, i haven't seen many of her performances!

    But i always thought she (along with Dustin Hoffman) was fantastic in 'The Graduate'.

    Also, i didn't realise her husband was Mel Brooks. They'd be together 41 years this August!

    My friend told me about this about 5 mins. before I went into my English exam and I was like, "Ya big ******! Don't tell me that before I go into an exam! Now I'm gonna be depressed!"

    I always though she had a touch of class. From that generation - Audrey Hepburn/Fonda/Minelli (before she went a bit mad) etc which came to prominence in the late fifties/sixties. She could do drama and comedy equally well.
