If I have this woman correctly ...


... She had a wonderful presence as an elderly matron, smart and dignified.

When I see her I think of Jessica Tandy, but she deserves her own place as a dignified woman who doesn't happen to be all that young.

Noteworthy in Mrs Doubtfire and so many other smallish roles where she really stood out.

She played Mary Steenburgen's mother on Curb Your Enthusiasm ... she was great.

I didn't see this one but I caught her on Quantum Leap and I thought, my gosh, she's so familiar and comfortable, we should say something about her.
And she had her own little edge to her. Like, I may be old but I will not let you diminish my dignity.
I'd love to spend my elder years with a smart and confident woman like this.
