I love Zelda Rubenstein. She’s probably one of my favorite character actresses in Hollywood. Until last week, I was under the impression that she had died recently, shortly after her cameo in the totally underrated Southland Tales, a movie with perhaps the strangest cast ever. But I was wrong! She had only fallen and hurt herself and is currently in a wheelchair. The woman is 75, alive, and kickin’! Ever since I found this out, I’ve been kind of obsessed with keeping tabs on her activity. I’m really concerned about her health and want her to make some more movies where she summons ghosts and is generally supernatural and creepy.

On top of being a talented, dare I say iconic, character actress, did you know the lady can cook? Here’s a video of her at a benefit cooking her ABC (apple banana curry).

Eat! Cross over, children! All are welcome! All are welcome!

In all truth though… apple banana curry sounds kind of nasty. Whatever, I’ll eat anything Zelda cooks for me.
