Other former colleagues released statements as well, including her “Ordinary People” co-stars, Donald Sutherland and Timothy Hutton.
“Mary was and is and now always will be perfect,” Sutherland — who played her husband in the film — said. “She was the perfect actor to work with, the performance she gave was perfect, painfully perfect, and the friendship she offered was perfect.
