Kathy Najimy

Kathy Najimy is one of those performers I trust to lift any scene she enters. Long before the film roles, she built her name on The Kathy and Mo Show, a feminist piece she wrote herself, which tells you her comedy always carried a point of view. Then came Sister Act and Hocus Pocus, where she could be hilarious without ever being mean. That warmth is rare. She makes ensemble work feel generous rather than competitive, and her voice acting proves the charm survives even without her face on screen. I simply enjoy her presence, and that is the highest compliment I give a character actor.
