Tributes have been shared following the death of Oscar-winning actor Diane Keaton, aged 79. Popular and loved for her roles in hit movies such as The Godfather, Something’s Gotta Give, Reds, The First Wives Club (and that famous dance, starring alongside Goldie Hawn and Bette Midler), Father of the Bride, and more. She won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in the film Annie Hall. Known for her signature style – hats, turtlenecks – Vanity Fair once described her as ‘the quirky polymath whose penchant for menswear broke new sartorial ground; the elder stateswoman who became a millennial icon’. A clip of Keaton dancing to Miley Cyrus’ song “Flowers” was quick to go viral. First Wives Club co-star Goldie Hawn said Keaton left “a trail of fairy dust, filled with particles of light and memories beyond imagination”.
