I read in the August 18 Hollywood Reporter that Scottish born actress Phyllida Law passed away at age 94 on July 27.

The THR article linked and quoted the post I wrote in 2021, for my weekly column “Out of the Archives” on the Golden Globes website, about what Emma Thompson said about her mother during an exclusive interview with the journalists of the Hollywood Foreign Press, on December 9, 1997, when the two actresses talked about The Winter Guest, directed by Alan Rickman.

Here’s another quote:
“Our relationship is unusual, and the reason is that there’s three of us in the family left now, me, my sister (Sophie), and my mother because my father (Eric) died when my sister was eighteen and I was twenty-one.”
Our heartfelt condolences to the family.
