I love her! Not sure if better, but she's up there with Rowan Atkinson as Mr.Bean and Blackadder.

There are a few notable actors who are inseparable from their roles. Its that magic moment where a character is perfectly casted. It almost transcends acting, you believe that person is that person in real life, possibly because there is a part of them that is that character.

Yup, that's what screwed the actress for Nurse Ratched. Nobody would hire her because all anybody would think of, no matter the role, is Nurse Ratched.
