Diane Keaton was one of a kind, both on and off the screen — a singularity that shone through in comedy and drama alike.
A spokesperson for the family confirmed to People that the Oscar winner and three-time nominee passed away on Saturday at age 79. They did not share the cause of death or provide any additional information.
For those who wish to remember Keaton’s contributions to cinema or those who have yet to experience some of her most iconic roles, here are six standout films from her career and details on where to stream them.
The Godfather Parts I and II (1972, 1974)
Not much remains unsaid about the “The Godfather” series. Yet, for those unfamiliar with the seminal mafia trilogy — notably leaving out the third chapter — Keaton’s portrayal as Al Pacino’s Michael Corleone’s smart and independent wife captivated audiences. These films, among her career’s earliest, propelled her to fame and Parts I and II won Academy Awards for Best Picture.

Annie Hall (1977)

Despite controversies surrounding Woody Allen and his filmography due to allegations of sexual misconduct, the influence of his films on Keaton and vice versa is significant. Keaton received her first Academy Award nomination and win for playing the titular role in Allen’s Best Picture-winning film, captivating viewers much like Annie Hall charmed Alvy Singer (Allen).
The movie is said to be heavily based on Keaton’s own experiences, including her penchant for menswear. Before filming, Keaton — originally named Diane Hall — had an on-and-off relationship with Allen for around three years and remained close friends with him throughout her lifetime.
Their frequent collaborations also included films like “Play It Again, Sam,” “Manhattan,” “Radio Days,” and “Manhattan Murder Mystery.”

Reds (1981)
In Warren Beatty’s star-packed 1981 historical epic about Russia’s Communist revolution, Keaton earned her second Oscar nomination for her portrayal of Louise Bryant, a woman who becomes entangled between Beatty’s portrayal of journalist John Reed and Jack Nicholson’s depiction of playwright Eugene O’Neill.

The First Wives Club (1996)
Keaton owned her role as one of three jilted women who set out to seek revenge on the husbands who left them for younger ladies. In the end, the trio of wronged wives learn that nothing is more powerful than the strength of female friendship and of finding confidence through personal success. The film famously concludes with Keaton and co-stars Goldie Hawn and Bette Midler performing a beloved rendition of Lesley Gore’s “You Don’t Own Me.”

Something’s Gotta Give (2003)

Diane Keaton’s fourth and final collaboration with writer-director Nancy Meyers remains their most acclaimed, and netted the actress her fourth and final Oscar nomination. In it, Keaton stars as the uptight, Hamptons-based playwright Erica Barry, undone by a string of heart attack-fueled events that land her in close proximity to Jack Nicholson’s Lothario, Harry Sanborn. The film is endlessly rewatchable and quotable, while Keaton herself is nothing short of magical — particularly when bawling to the tune of feverish typing and Earth Kitt.
“That was just something that really changed my life in a big way, at a certain time in my life when nothing was happening,” Keaton told the Daily News in 2019. “Because of that movie, I’ve had a longer longevity, more time to be in more movies.”
