She was awesome in The Phantom Lullaby, however, I love her in You'll Like My Mother. She scared the bejesus out of me as Mrs. Kinsolving. Her character was quite good in The Attic, as well.

She has a fantastic voice, but she scared me to death when she was Mrs Kinsolving, in You'll Like My Mother.

She scared the crap out of me when she was Mrs Kinsolving in You'll Like My Mother! She was going to look the other way when poor Patty Duke was going to be raped and murdered. This was after the kittens were drowned because they were not good enough. I loved her in The Attic as that strict and rotten mother. She was terrific in The Phantom Lullaby with her snooty, stuck up voice. I liked her.
