Anna Massey, 1937-2011



I'm sorry to read of the death of actress Anna Massey, who died yesterday at the age of 73. The daughter of Raymond Massey and god-daughter of John Ford, Massey started her career in the underseed 1958 movie Gideon's Day (also known in the US as Gideon of Scotland Yard), and then her career really took off with the 1960 movie Peeping Tom, pictured above, where she plays the love interest of Karlheinz Böhm.

I mentioned quite a few of her major works when I posted on her birthday last year, although I missed a small role as an English teacher in Dark Blue World.
