Can someone please help me with this question? In the show Poker Face, Natasha Lyonne plays Charlie Cale. Who as an actress does she use as a model/ inspiration/ comparison from the way she talks, moves, acts, thinks ect? I am drawing a blank and really would your thoughts! Thank you!

It’s an actor..she’s using Columbo (Peter Falk I think) as a inspiration. It was in some interviews I read.

Peter Falk. Have you watched Columbo? It's right up your street if you can and have enjoyed Poker Face. For viewers who have seen Columbo, me among them, her smoker and gravel voice is quite reminiscent of Peter Falk's iconic voice.

"Lyonne says the touchstone here is less Gould or Falk than Jeff Bridges as the Dude" https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-features/poker-face-rian-johnson-natasha-lyonne-interview-1234646956/

She seems to be taking a bunch from Natasha Lyonne in Russian Doll, for one.

Does she need to use one?

Honestly she acts like a calmer version of most of her performances to me.
