I first came across Diane Ladd - at least saying "I know that actress is named Diane Ladd" - when I rented Wild at Heart in high school. And that is one hell of an introduction to any actor.
Over the years, of course she's shown up in all sorts of things I've seen. World's Fastest Indian, figuring out she's in Christmas Vacation, Something Wicked This Way Comes, etc... She also is the mother of Laura Dern, with whom she appeared in several movies in addition to Wild at Heart.
Here's to remembering Ms. Ladd and sharing condolences with her family.
