Angela Lansbury in Gaslight
Eve Arden in Mildred Pierce
Thanks for those, Victoria!
On the subject of
Gaslight, one might also add Dame Mae Whitty (the "diggy biscuit" lady).
Thanks for Joan Bondell, Clarissa.
Mandy Patinkin in The Princess Bride? For weeks afterward, the friend I saw it with and I greeted each other with:
"My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."
I'll add Alan Hale, the sidekick in most of Errol Flynn's movies (e.g., Little John in
The Adventures of Robin Hood).
Eeek, why didn't I check out this thread a l-o-o-o-n-g time ago!
