Glenda Jackson obituary
The crew was “shocked and deeply saddened” by her passing, according to Oliver Parker, the director of the upcoming film “The Great Escaper,” which Jackson and Parker just collaborated on.
“She had such fierce intelligence, such passion, and fearlessness,” Parker said. “It is hard to believe that it was less than a month ago that we screened the finished film for her and Michael (Caine) — she was as feisty and vibrant as ever and we will treasure the memory of that emotional and happy day.”
Caine said it was “as wonderful an experience this time as it was 50 years ago,” when the two last worked together.
“Glenda was one of our greatest movie actresses,” he said. “I shall miss her.”
Labour Party leader Keir Starmer said Jackson “leaves a space in our cultural and political life that can never be filled.”
“She played many roles with great distinction, passion and commitment,” he said. “From award-winning actor to campaigner and activist to Labour MP and government minister, Glenda Jackson was always fighting for human rights and social justice.”
