My Take

Anna Massey is the kind of actress I prize most: quietly brilliant, with no need for spectacle. Across stage and screen she disappeared into roles, and her Edith Hope in Hotel du Lac was so perfectly inhabited that a co-star felt it had been written for her. A Commander of the Order of the British Empire, she embodied a very British restraint that lets subtlety do the work. I think performers like her, who win you over through precision rather than flash, are the ones who linger longest in memory. Her career deserves rediscovery.
