In a birthday tribute scheduled before she passed away earlier this month, Diane Ladd is fondly remembered through a double feature of two of her many memorable films. For the first, 1974’s Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore (8/7c), directed by Martin Scorsese, she was nominated for an Oscar for her portrayal of the tart-tongued waitress, Flo (a role later played in the TV series Alice by Polly Holliday, who passed away in September). This is followed by 1991’s Rambling Rose, starring opposite her daughter Laura Dern in a drama that earned them both Oscar nominations.
