R.I.P.

98 is one hell of an age to reach.

She was in one of my favorite movies, Repulsion (1965). She played Catherine Deneuve's older, sluttier sister. I also recall her being very beautiful in this movie (The Mummy).

'I also recall her being very beautiful in this movie (The Mummy).'

She certainly was.
