She made the name of the nurse so iconic, that even those who never saw the movie know exactly what Nurse Ratchett was as a person, when someone uses the name to describe another person.
I've never seen One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, but I knew of her iconic role. I more remember her from playing the evil grandmother in the movie Flowers In the Attic, made from the book back in 1987. I also remember her from the movie Firestarter (made from the Stephen King book) in 1984. What a great actress she was.
