Favorite Kathy Bates Performance

I thought she was brilliant on The Love Boat (Season 1, Ep 13) as a newlywed bride whose honeymoon with John Rubinstein remains unconsummated due to a series of mishaps.

“My Mama says that alligators are ornery because they got all them teeth and no toothbrush.”

Men Don’t Leave. Small-ish role but she played a cunt to perfection.

SHE'S the DEVIL

A Home of Our Own is a great Sunday afternoon movie

I've only seen three of those movies.

I loved her in “Tammy.”

Dick Tracy!

Primary Colors is the only correct answer. She should’ve won the Oscar for it.

“Do you know what they did to the miners at the Kimberley diamond mines?” 🔨

She is such a great actor that it's difficult choosing. I loved her in Misery but REALLY loved her character and acting in FGT

It’s a tie for me between Dolores Claiborne and Misery. For whatever reason, her pairing with Stephen King material worked out famously. She played the hell out of both those characters.

^Totally agree!

Sticking with OP's choices, Dolores Claiborne (yes, Misery's a very close second)

If you haven't seen "A Home of Our Own," you should. Yes, it's a little Hallmark-y, but it's sweet. With Edward Furlong back when he was just a pup.

Definitely Delores Claiborne. Can't believe that movie didn't get more critical acclaim.

R16 it had bad cinematography. It looked a little ABC movie of the week.

Her accent was a little shaky in Dolores.
