Any chance you’d look at Emma Thomason’s take on this role

Shani Gribben

Pam Ferris is a genius. She nails the over-the-top cartoonishness, but in pretty much every clip you've shown, she's simultaneously doing these subtler physical details that make her performance more convincing than most similar characters, and that makes her all the more viscerally terrifying because she is not a caricature even though she's going all out. What she's doing with her eyes, especially, is amazing. How is she going big and small at the same time with the same body part?!? And when she's afraid, there's actually nothing cartoonish at all! It's big, but it's nuanced.

ive been in therapy for ~3years now, and while I am there in my own free will, my therapist can rip me a new one when i try to be stubborn or unyielding for no apparent reason… so that happy feeling that Jono described? you can also get it from none-courtordered patients ;) thank you so much for doing these analyses, and for always being so… open? happy? real? entertaining? (all of that! :) )

Hi, thank you so much for joining our Patreon! We have a wonderful caption writer for our YouTube videos, however, Patreon only allows automated captions. We've been bugging them to allow custom captions so hopefully they get around to it soon. Thanks for watching!

I think I saw this movie close to 30 times! I've consumed the VHS when I was a child ahah I loved you did 2 episodes on Matilda and I joined Patreon just for it! (side note: what's up with the subtitles? ahahah there where a couple of full screen "Ooooo" and "Hee hee hee" subtitles, on top of some mistakes and missing sentences/words. I'd be more than happy to do the subtitles for you guys if you need it!) Thank you very so much for all your content, it's very inspiring and reminds me (too) many times that I should start therapy.

Awesome. I enjoyed this movie as a kid. Miss Trunchbull made a grown woman feel like a child. smh thx so much for the shoutout at the end Jono! 😁🤗

If we're eating something my kids are unsure about, all I have to do is say, "Much too good for children!" and they immediately want a bite. That movie is timeless and she's the best-worst villain. 😂
