….in a role that Ellen Burstyn had to turn down and ended up winning Fletcher an Oscar.
Fletcher's Ratched was a cold as ice, manipulating, narcissistic k<>t! While Fletcher has been criticized for giving a one note performance in some circles, that she was so hateful and despicable in her role is only to her credit. Fletcher in reality, comes across as warm, radiant and giving.
Was it a stretch for her, I'm not sure it matters. Her face spoke volumes about the kind of woman Ratched was. Bravo!

Ratched is probably one of the worst film villains ever portrayed. She's legendary.

The shame is on your womb intrusion where it wasn't wanted. You will pay dearly, so sayeth the devil.

I haven't seen that. Fletcher works in well with certain roles and strong direction. If left to her own devices, she flounders or is campy.

She would have likely relished that. That was a role of a lifetime for her playing Ratched.

There are a lot of man-hating women bosses around like Ratched.
