When they are at Shelby's funeral, makes me bawl everytime. She talks about holding her daughter's hand as she died and how honored she was to have that experience...then they break it up with Olivia Dukakis' character says, "Here hit this." and she's talking about Wheezer. What a great scene!!
Before that, on a soap in the 80's I think it was. Played the wife of a squeaky clean physician. She became the town tramp, had her own pimp and everything. That confession on the witness stand---Lord could she cry.
scene where she makes her kinsman to swear not to tell her husband she had been purposefully raped so that it would enrage her husband to reckless vengence.
lange was outstanding in that scene. it was a chilling performance. one of the very best things i ever saw on film. i found myself in tears from her performance.
That scene tears my guts out. I was actually thinking of it when I saw this thread. Jessica Lange has the ability to get almost uncomfortably raw in her performances...something not many other actresses can do.
