God bless you please, Mrs Robinson

·1 min

Sadly, I didn’t have time to blog about this after a madcap work day yesterday, but RIP, Anne Bancroft. Here’s to you Mrs Robinson; Jesus loves you more than you will know.

The Graduate is always one of those films that I vacillate between when I’m asked to name my favourite film. It’s got to be The Graduate - incidentally, also the first film I ever saw with a commentary track, back in the days of laserdisc - or Annie Hall or Manhattan. And a large part of my love for The Graduate was Bancroft’s awesome performance.

The last Bancroft film I saw was Keeping the Faith, a decidedly sweeter comedy.
