R.I.P., Anne Bancroft

I knew Alex would come through.

Here is Alex’s tribute to Bancroft’s long and astonishing career.

Here is a list of Bancroft trivia.

And here are some Anne Bancroft quotables. My favorite?

“When Mel told his Jewish mother he was marrying an Italian girl, she said: ‘Bring her over. I’ll be in the kitchen – with my head in the oven’.”

Like her husband, Mel Brooks, always used to say about their relationship: “Anne is the funny one.”

Rest in peace, Anne. And thank you.
