In my mind she is always young. RIP

I mean I love her and she’s a generational talent, but she was 79 - personally I would call that gone too soon. Absolutely sad but she wasn’t in her 60s or even early 70s.

I loved her in Baby Boom, too!

Yes

I’ll respectfully disagree. She is gone just in time to not burden anyone around her

Feel bad for her kids, only in their 20s.

Daughter is 29 and son is 25. Plenty of people have parents who died when they were younger than those ages!

If you are rich it is less of a burden

While that’s true, it’s also true that it’s young overall to lose their parents. It’s not a competition of who had it worse. It’s totally appropriate for someone to feel bad for her kids in a thread about Diane Keaton’s young adult children.

Sure it's sad but, they are over 18 and had a great life with Diane, I'm sure. One should always think of other people to put things into perspective. My dad died when i was 14.

This is my favorite of hers as well.

I think Baby Boom is a Gen X classic that likely made an impact on a lot of women.

Like another pp said, Diane Keaton was so cool. Her clothes, her vibe…she exuded a sense of self that was endearing. She never came across as arrogant.

She rocked a belt to the very end

My mom died when I was 24 and it absolutely gutted me. I dont think we need to play the who had it worse game and no it is not necessary to put things into perspective to compare grief. Losing a parent sucks

That's your opinion but I have my opinion too and I have ever right to feel as I do. I am not saying it isn't sad or they aren't gutted. I'm not even saying it is a competition. I am saying they are much better off than they would have been if they had been under 18! And I have the right to my thoughts so fine if you disagree but I am not changing my mind!!!!
