Passed away. Her portrayal of Nurse Mildred Ratched was decades ahead of the real life control freaks infesting academia and government.

Rest in Peace.

She sure deserved the Oscar she got.

I remember standing up in the theater and yelling, "kill her, kill her" when Jack was choking her. I was not the only one either...

Louise Fletcher winning her Academy Award. She certainly seemed be a very different person than Nurse Ratchet.

Obviously a tribute to her acting skills was her award and the ability to evoke such a visceral response from the audience.

When you have to play a bitch, you'd better act like you are one.
There's no nice way to do that.
Henry Silver was a real nasty villain on screen, but the nicest guy off.
