Hollywood has lost one of its most unforgettable stars.
Diane Keaton — the Oscar-winning actress who defined charm, wit, and individuality on screen — has died at 79.
From The Godfather’s quiet intensity to Annie Hall’s quirky brilliance, Keaton shaped an era.
Who else could turn mismatched suits and wide-brimmed hats into a cultural statement?
Her 1978 Oscar win for Annie Hall cemented her as one of Hollywood’s greats, but her legacy went far beyond trophies.
“She was hilarious, a complete original,” wrote longtime friend and First Wives Club co-star Bette Midler.
Goldie Hawn called her “a trail of fairy dust… memories beyond imagination.”
And Steve Martin, who starred alongside her in Father of the Bride, remembered their playful banter.
“You’re both idiots,” Keaton once quipped about him and Martin Short.
A Legacy Of Love
Over five decades, she gave audiences unforgettable performances in films like Reds, Marvin’s Room, and Something’s Gotta Give.
Behind the camera, she explored stories as a director, always driven by curiosity and heart.
She never married but often said her greatest joy came from her two adopted children.
In her memoir, she wrote, “I am totally content whenever the ones I love are happy.”
Maybe that’s Keaton’s real legacy — reminding us that love, laughter, and a little eccentricity never go out of style.
