Grete Nordrå

Over the next 35 years, her roles were few and far between, but in 1990 she appeared as a Norwegian witch in the film adaptation of Roald Dahl's The Witches, and her screen appearances since then have been more frequent, though still mostly on Norwegian television. Her biggest commercial success was co-starring in 2003's Mors Elling as the mother of title character. She was nominated for an Amanda Award for her performance. She died in 2012 in Bergen.
