Subject: Oscar winner Patricia Neal passed away Sunday

Written By: snozberries on 08/09/10 at 10:36 am

Patricia Neal, the Oscar-winning actress whose life off-screen life contained as much drama, tragedy, and inspiration as any of her film or theater roles, died Sunday at her home in Martha's Vineyard of lung cancer; she was 84.

I heard about that this morning. I always liked her. But, I didn't know that she was married to Roald Dahl. Despite all her health problems and tragedies, she did live a long life.

I didn't know she was married to Roald Dahl either. I remember seeing her at the oscars after her stroke. It felt like such a triumphant moment. She did survive a lot.

Heh, me neither! I know I read a lot of his books as a youngster.

She certainly did, and now she'll be greatly missed. :(

I just watched her in "The Fountainhead" with Gary Cooper.

Interesting match, she and Roald Dahl!

I remember her in Hud, there isn't anyone who could, or still can, do sultry like her.  RIP :\'(

**SPOILER ALERT**

Hud is one of my favorites.  Neal played Alma the housekeeper.  At the end Hud's lost everything.  His father is dead.  His brother joins the army.  Alma is the one I hoped would come back and they could fall in love and start a life together.  Instead you just see him slam the door and walk over the icebox for a beer...and that is going to be his fate.
