A year later, she starred as Jenny Cavilleri in Love Story (1970), earning another Golden Globe and an Oscar nomination.
The film became one of the highest-grossing romantic dramas and cemented her place as a Hollywood icon.
Known for the iconic line “Love means never having to say you’re sorry,” Love Story turned MacGraw into a household name.
She left the film industry in the ’90s and has since kept a low profile. Reflecting on her rise to fame, she said it was surreal becoming a movie
star overnight at 30, having never formally studied acting. Now in her mid-80s, she remains admired for her talent, beauty, and timeless presence.
