Anna Massey dies aged 73

*Anna Massey, the versatile actress made famous by her roles in
Peeping Tom and The Importance of Being Earnest, died of cancer on
Sunday.*

Massey had a long and impressive career in theatre, film and
television.

She first acted on stage as a teenager, going on to experience several
formidable highlights – winning a British Academy TV Award for
Best Actress for her role in the BBC’s 1986 adaptation of Anita
Brookner’s _Hotel du Lac._

She has also worked with several icons of film, including Alfred
Hitchcock (_Frenzy_), and Otto Preminger on underrated _Bunny Lake Is
Missing_.

Not one to shy away from risky projects, she worked on several
interesting if flawed films throughout the noughties and was
particularly impressive in psychological thriller _The Machinist_ and
genre plunder-piece _The Oxford Murders_.

Her performances and outlook on life remained plucky to the end. On
the matter of aging she once remarked, “I think however old and
blind and prune-like one may look, the spirit that goes on inside you
stays young and flirtatious.”

*A devoted mother and wife, she is survived by her husband, Uri
Andres, and son, Dan Huggins.*
