My Take
Trish Van Devere is one of those quietly excellent actresses who tends to get filed under someone else's name. A Golden Globe nominee and Genie Award winner, she did genuinely fine work, especially in The Changeling, yet she is often remembered chiefly as George C. Scott's wife and frequent co-star. I find that a little unfair. Her performances show a restrained, intelligent presence that rewards close attention rather than demanding it. She is exactly the sort of actor I like to champion: not flashy, not loud, but reliably truthful. Talent like hers deserves to be seen on its own terms.
