Susannah York passed away over this weekend; she was 72 and was battling cancer. She was a great actress and appeared in some wonderful films in the 1960s and 1970s, including the Oscar-winning classics Tom Jones and A Man for All Seasons. I liked her in all the films I've seen her in, including the TV version of A Christmas Carol from 1984. Kate from Silents and Talkies made a lovely video tribute that I've watched twice so far. It features some of the best films of Ms. York's, and a very touching song. Rest in peace.
