I'm so very sad about this. Such a talented person.

Oh shit, no way. One of the rare actors who kept getting better with age. Time to rewatch Moira's wine commercial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUGKJ13RQq8

I'm so happy Orson Welles' Paul Masson outtakes came across the appropriate comedic geniuses.

Quality reference! I always assumed she drew inspiration from that.

Fucking Legend

Bless her. I'm so glad we got a Beetlejuice 2 with her in it. May she go with the crows.

She made every character she played. She’s like Gary Oldman…maybe not the “star” of the production, but the film wouldn’t have worked without her character and her acting.

A very sad death to see.

My two favorite films of hers were Nightmare Before Christmas and Best in Show. She was a treasure.

Just watched Best in Show last night for the first time. Her 'broken ankle' walk was hilarious. She was indeed a Canadian treasure.

This is really sad. 💔
