    That other Great Dame, Judi Dench, might not be far behind her. I feel privileged to have seen both on stage, in London.

    There will probably never be actresses of their standard ever again.

    Potter and Downton getting mentions, but what about the Prime of Miss Jean Brodie which made her famous in my mind. RiP

    I never post on RIP threads as there are so many of them that they occasionally make this place read like an obituary page.
    But Maggie Smith....she was magnificent.

    Plus the two Sister Act films worthy of a mention

    Maggie Smith always seemed somehow indestructible to me. Hard to take in that she’s gone.
