“We knew she wasn't well but we never thought she'd die. Mira was simply greater than life. A film diva, an honourable individual and beautiful person. For me, personally, she was a diva from the time I was just a beginner in the world of film. I was lucky enough to meet her at the Academy and I was later impressed by her kindness. She remained pure and loyal to her own ideals in the time when Yugoslavia was falling apart, which was difficult. She passed away as a great human being and only the sadness remains,” Tanovic told Fena news agency.

The legendary actress Mira Furlan died at the age of 66, supposedly of West Nile Disease.
