Inspired by her Emmy-worthy performance on The White Lotus - please, share your thoughts on this National International Treasure.

Amazing Trivia: The interiors of Sofia Coppola's The Beguiled were filmed at her home in New Orleans. Did you guys know this?

Oh honey, I absolutely adore her!
I've only seen her in supporting roles. Did she ever get her own movie (like Molly Shannon in Year of the Dog)?
I need to see The White Lotus but I agree with her that Mike White is a genius.

Okay, Mattsby and stephen, why didn't y'all tell me that she was that good in Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans?! Between this and The White Lotus, she definitely needs to be cast in more dramatic roles, stat.

Okay, Mattsby and stephen , why didn't y'all tell me that she was that good in Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans?! She's insanely good in it and misses out on my Supporting Actress lineup because of the strength of the year -- but I'd easily rate her over four of the actual nominees that year. Coolidge is obviously a brilliant comedic actress (shout-out to her brilliant work in Austenland), but she is absolutely capable of dramatic heft and The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans hints at some truly staggering depths. Honestly, I could easily see her working wonders with Lynch and PTA (the remaining two of my holy trifecta she hasn't worked with). I think Coolidge, for example, could've done a lot more with Julianne Moore's character in Magnolia than what we wound up with.

She cracks me up... from the Christopher Guests... her scenes in Legally Blonde, Cinderella Story... her hilarious guest spots in Frasier, Friends, Party Down etc. Btw has anyone seen Joey - she's in every ep, along w Drea De Matteo. Might have to check it out. Also didn't realize she's a Drama Desk nodded Broadway actress! The Women with Jennifer Tilly in cast (the two of them would make quite a memorable buddy comedy)...and Elling with Brendan Fraser, Denis O'Hare. She's good in Bad Lieutenant small role tho... White Lotus she's so fragile and unpredictable, one of her best.

Mattsby - Oh wow - I had no idea she had acted on stage! She is a classically trained actor after all (American Academy of Dramatic Arts), so it shouldn't have been that surprising. pacinoyes - Perhaps she deserves a mention on your Television, Film, Stage thread? She's hilarious on 2 Broke Girls to me.

Absolutely amazing in everything and I love how much meat she had to work with in The White Lotus. Often reduced to just Stifler's Mom, this woman freaking has it. @tyler if you haven't seen Austenland she's so much fun there.

We really need to acknowledge how ahead of her time wendy is - she was totally on board with Coolidge being one of the all time greats before it was a thing.

She is only 11 years older than Josh Duhamel, yet she plays his mother in Shotgun Wedding... Surely she is getting better offers than this post- White Lotus? It was fun to see her acting with Sonia Braga, though! Javi

Some of her commercials are ridiculously clever and really on-brand
