The last of these, in fact, is practically a parody of all blowsy southern dames; Weston plays a Miss Havisham-esque mental patient who, in her dementia, still makes up her face and puts on her costume jewellery and sets her table as if eternally expecting a gentleman caller.
Ripley (in which Weston plays Cate Blanchett's rich aunt); Joe Gould's Secret (as a coolly professional receptionist at the '50s-era New Yorker); and the current In the Bedroom (as an insensitive family friend to Sissy Spacek and Tom Wilkinson).
CeliaWeston has corrected that impression for us, and it's a mistake we'll never make again.
On December 14, 1951, CeliaWeston was born in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
However, Weston did not create a huge breakthrough until she became the new Southern-fried waitress in town, Jolene Hunnicut, on the 1976 CBS sitcom Alice in 1981.
Weston co-starred as the dressed-down Southern matriarch in the Sundance-premiered drama Junebug (2005), and guest starred as Joanne Dexler in an episode of Law and Order: Criminal Intent, that same year.
