Whether she is espousing the old-world Italian view of love, betrayal, marriage and heartbreak as Rose Castorini in her Oscar-winning performance in Moonstruck, capturing hearts and raising eyebrows as the pot-growing, kind-hearted, motherly transsexual Anna Madrigal in Armistead Maupin's unforgettable journey into San Francisco's gay culture in the 70s Tales from the City, pulling heartstrings as Clairee Belcher in 1989's Steel Magnolias, or helping to create a local theater troupe that will give young actors and actresses a chance at perfecting their craft, Olympia Dukakis is a talent for the ages.
