At 79, Glenn Close appeared smiling from her home in Montana, wearing a shirt that had belonged to her mother as she watched the sunset.
“Hello everyone, I’m home”, said the actress. She then said that she felt the wind through her white hair and felt blessed. She ended the video with a phrase that caught people’s attention: “Hello everyone. Goodbye”.
The moment began to spark speculation, especially after the recent deaths of Dolly Parton and Tim Curry, both 80 years old. For some users, that “goodbye” sounded too definitive.
And there’s another detail fueling the theory: Close will receive an honorary Oscar this year, after being nominated 8 times without ever winning the competitive statuette. The ceremony will be on November 15.
Could that recognition be the grand finale of an extraordinary career? Sometimes a single word is enough for social media to write an entire theory. 👀
