Actress Melinda Dillon of ‘A Christmas Story’ and ‘Close Encounters’ dies at 83
Sad to hear that Melinda Dillon has died. She was 83.
She was brilliant in everything she starred in but my personal favourite were her roles in Close Encounters of The Third Kind and Harry & The Hendersons.
She had two Oscar nominations for her performances in Close Encounters of the Third Kind and Absence of Malice.

This short but hilarious scene with #MelindaDillon and #PaulNewman and the aftermath from ‘Slap Shot’ still has me in stitches.
