Oh man, I can't believe I forgot about her! She was way ahead of her time, criticizing Israel's oppression of Palestinians decades ago. And for that, she had pretty much all of Hollywood turn on her, she had her part in "Murder On The Orient Express" significantly reduced, and she had trouble getting hired afterwards, IIRC.
At least she lived long enough to see the rest of the world wake up to what Israel was doing. I hope that it's given her some level of satisfaction to be vindicated that way, and that it at least partly makes up for all the hate directed at her for so many years.
