Gisooo 3,712 Posted yesterday at 13:49 I know you're all going to ask me why? Is she sick, is she frail, does she have any health problems? Actually I don't have any info about her current condition, but she seems very well and quite active to me. The reason is that I want her to have a thread because as far as I can see she didn't have one and moreover she deserves it. I wouldn't want her to end up like Dame Joan Plowright so that her thread would be created after her death. Best Actress Academy Award Winner for Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore and nominated for 5 others Oscars (four leading and one supporting), 5 time Emmy nominee (once winner), 7 time Golden Globes nominee (once winner), 4 time SAG Award nominee, BAFTA and a Tony Award Winner. Unforgettable roles in The Excorsist, The Last Picture Show, Same Time Next Year, The Age of Adaline, Flowers in the Attic, Queen Bees, Pieces of a Woman and definitely two of my favorites Requiem for a Dream and Interstellar. 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well that's really on you, she is definitely a famous actress. I wonder if it's time to open a thread for June Squibb as well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bentrovato 1,136 Posted yesterday at 15:59 She starred in an adaptation of Henry Miller's Tropic of Cancer. That counts on any votes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Her career is bigger than the majority of the names on the Deathlist! It’s fair enough if you haven’t heard of her, but just because one individual isn’t familiar with someone really doesn’t mean anything it just means your general knowledge isn’t the best. She’s won an Oscar, an Emmy and a Tony, she’s absolutely worthy of her own thread. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Her character was introduced in a one-off appearance nearly 15 years before on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. It would net her an Emmy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
