Glynis Johns RIP
English actor Glynis Johns, who played the daffy suffragette mother Mrs. Banks in the classic film "Mary Poppins," died Thursday at an assisted living home in Los Angeles, her manager Mitch Clem confirmed to Variety. She was 100.
"Glynis powered her way through life with intelligence, wit, and a love for performance, affecting millions of lives," Clem said in a statement. "She entered my life early in my career and set a very high bar on how to navigate this industry with grace, class, and truth. Your own truth. Her light shined very brightly for 100 years. She had a wit that could stop you in your tracks powered by a heart that loved deeply and purely. Today is a somber day for Hollywood. Not only do we mourn the passing of our dear Glynis, but we mourn the end of the golden age of Hollywood." **** Copied from another site

Sorry Bob that I missed this.
I watched "The 49th Parrallel" (1941) last evening and was reminded of the longevity of Glyniss' career. Such a distinct voice and a great emotional actress. A long life leaving lots of memories. |

She was very good in State Secret with Douglas Fairbanks Jnr and Jack Hawkins, 'Nataley'. She and someothers of the cast had to speak the language of the ficticious state of Vosnia.
