One of my favourite actresses died yesterday. Catherine O’Hara was a gifted comic and actress. She stole more scenes than lassie in her time and when in her sixties, forged out a new following by creating the amazing character of MoiraRose in Schitt’s Creek.
She will be missed
We've also enjoyed Catherine O'Hara for decades and she's brought her humor and skill to many movie parts. She is gone too soon and will be unforgettable.
ReplyDeleteHugs!
Catherine O'Hara was wonderful. She'll be missed. Her parts in Christopher Guest movies were great, especially when she played Cookie Guggleman in Best In Show.
ReplyDeleteLove,

I was always in love with Maureen O'Hara, but that's a different ball game!
ReplyDeleteShe was always exceptional and Schitt’s Creek was a perfect vehicle for her talents. She made that character lovable.
ReplyDeleteI was genuinely shocked when it was announced on Channel 4 news last night. Such a fine actress. Her role in Schitts Creek was fabulous and she was the star of the show. May she Rest in Peace.Carole R.
ReplyDeleteLoved her. She was talented and lovely and just kind, from all accounts. Watching next A Mighty Wind, which I've somehow missed seeing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a loss, what a woman. Moria Rose will forever be one of my favourites 😔
ReplyDeleteAlways so sad when someone dies too young. RIP Catherine. xx
ReplyDeleteI was given “Best in Show” by Morgan Freeman when we were dock neighbours in Grenada before it actually came out and I thought it was one of the funniest movies ever. I hope it will be on Netflix so I can watch it again. Cookie was so good as was Eugene Levy as Gerry Fleck. So sorry to hear about Catherine O’Hara. Gigi
ReplyDeleteI loved the moments on "Schitt's Creek" when she would show the gentle side of her character, like when she talked with Stevie during the Cabaret show. She will certainly be missed.
ReplyDeleteA great Canadian comic actress! I've been a fan since her initial days on SCTV. What a shock her sudden death is and what a loss. She was still at the top of her game.
ReplyDeleteShe brought much joy and laughter into the lives of so many. I think that is noble.
ReplyDeleteShe was a legend and she will be deeply missed.
ReplyDeleteShe was exceptional as Moira. She was a lovely accepting mother for David and I loved her for that.
ReplyDeleteI was standing in knee-deep snow yesterday, refilling the birdfeeders, when my taller half called out the door "Catherine O'Hara died." If everyone in this country and many around the world did not respond as I did-- "Noooooo!" -- I'd be surprised. She's one of our (Canada's) national treasures. Just as I still remember exactly where I was when the news came on the car radio that John Lennon had died, I bet I'll remember this time too. -Kate
ReplyDeleteI remember her from 'Home Alone'.... movies... so sad... loved her... Hugs! deb
ReplyDeleteShe was so loved in Canada. Smart, funny, kind, bold, she showed us all how to believe in ourselves and live life to the fullest.
ReplyDeletePode avisar ao FDP da coordenação da UFRJ, que vazou as minhas informações pessoais e sigilosas para você, que eu já descobri o nome completo dele.
ReplyDeleteEu descubro tudo, assim como eu descobri o seu perfil no Linkedin e no Instagram:
https://pt.linkedin.com/in/rafaela-carvalho-2737592a1

Caso você não se lembre do que aconteceu:
Um funcionário público da UFRJ abusou do poder, que tinha como membro da coordenação da farmácia da UFRJ, para vazar as minhas informações pessoais e sigilosas para você, que nem mora mais no Brasil, que já se formou como farmacêutica pela UFRJ, enquanto você ainda estudava na UFRJ, você nunca fez uma disciplina junto comigo, ou seja, você nem sabe que eu sou.
Se a intenção deste FDP foi me calar, pode falar para ele que não funcionou. Eu vou continuar denunciando os absurdos que acontecem dentro da UFRJ.
Se esse FDP morasse aqui na minha rua as coisas seriam bem diferentes, em cima da minha rua tem uma boca de fumo, em frente a minha casa funciona um ferro velho clandestino que fornece material furtado para os traficantes fazerem barricadas. Se esse FDP morasse aqui na minha rua, os traficantes já teriam mandado esse FDP subir até a boca de fumo, os traficantes não gostam de gente que faz as coisas para sacanear os outros, igual esse FDP fez comigo.
Yes, she was a gem. She made Moira such a great character, and she was brilliant in Christopher Guest's films.
ReplyDeleteJohn, are you Ok? I'm hoping you're just busy, and happy ... not sick or coping with a sick Meg? XX Virginia
ReplyDeleteI was a big fan from SCTV onwards; I was quite sad at the news.
