Connecticut -- Actress Lynn Redgrave has died of breast cancer at the age of 67. 

She was nominated for Oscars in 1966 for "Georgy Girl" and in 1998 for "Gods and Monsters". In London I first saw her in her starring role in Georgy Girl as the "gawky  soft-hearted, badly-dressed young woman who clowns and wise-cracks to cover her emotional inadequacies, and to hide her envy of the casual love affairs engaged in by her London roommate, Merdith (Charlotte Rampling)." Alan Bates was great, too. So was James Mason. And the Seekers.

R.I.P., Lynn Redgrave.

    Hey there, Georgie Girl! There's another Georgie deep inside . . .

    I used to play that song as a kid.

    Great actress.
