And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson

I watched The Miracle Worker (1962) on Turner Classic Movies (the best television channel in the world) last week. Anne Bancroft plays Anne Sullivan, the teacher who taught the blind and deaf Helen Keller how to communicate. I had never seen it before. Great story. Great acting. It reminded me how much I like Anne Bancroft.
If you thought she was a sexy older woman in The Graduate (when she was actually 36), you should see her in To Be or Not to Be (when she was 52).
Besides, today is her birthday.
Happy birthday, Mrs. Robinson.
