Your protrayal of Magda is one of the most memorable in my books :) To be a part of one of the funniest movies ever made.. must be incredibly exciting :D Magda was a hoot!

[Lin Shaye]

Thanks all of you! I feel so blessed I had "Magda" in my creative life. It is amazing that she is still so fresh in people's minds. I hope "she lives forever!!" I wish I could...as long as I could take some long naps now and then...!

2 things struck me...
1.).. Did that dog really kiss that much or was your makeup flavored???
(Not that your totally not kissable Lin:p)

2.).. Your voice was much higher that I remembered.
Did you alter it at all or is it really like that?

I so forgot how funny that movie was... And the laughs came right at the right time for me... I needed a smile.
What a gift to know that you were part of something so memorable.
Take care Lin.

Hi Vick....! THE DOG KISSED THAT MUCH!! Who knows WHY .... but whatever...while it was happening, Cameron was laughing so hard , she was crying, and I just keep thinking "don't move, stay with it!" Thank goodness I did, as people tell me it is one of their favorite "cinema moments of all times." It was one of mine!
I am not aware of having really done anything consciously with my voice. But often, "the character speaks" and literally it's as if someone else is talking...not me...
