Rest in Peace, Piper Laurie (known for Carrie and Children of a Lesser God)

[CB2001]

Best known for her role as Carrie’s mother. I’ll always remember her from The Faculty (1999). Rest in peace, Ms. Laurie. Thank you for your performances. :*(

I knew her best from The Hustler. It's considered a Paul Newman film, but it wouldn't have worked at all without Piper Laurie's poignant and tragic part.

Rest her soul

Yep -- Catherine Martell. I watched Twin Peaks when it originally aired and I was four years out of high school, and did a re-watch around 2016. Her appeal didn't register much the first time, but last time around it was quite different.
