I think the character was inspired by Cloris Leachman's ability to pull it off. And I think that explains Nurse Diesel in High Anxiety, too. Without her, the characters would have been entirely different, or not there at all.Dan_Shane said:Neither do I, and I suspect Frau Blucher was more likely inspired by Judith Anderson in Rebecca. She was as sinister as they come in that role.
