ANNE FRANCIS ACTRESS FORBIDDEN PLANET

[docmalthus]

I always had the biggest crush on Anne Francis when young, and I'll always love her. Such a beautiful human being!

[64downtown]

thanks for uploading this treasure interview-she did some fantastic movies.-at mgm

[monk22yrs]

ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW...."anne francis/starred in forbidden planet..."

[sbinsdca]

The mole was cute .. when she was younger

[SONOFHERO52]

Those damn cigarettes ended up killing her in the end..its a shame

[chimptor50]

Yes, Ann died at the tender age of 80!!!!!!!! She lived a long and wonderful life, and yes, the cigs defenatly caused her cancer but she smoked for, what, 60 + years? She was one of the few that smoke forever and avoided dying young. She is 52 in this interview? This is how cigeretts prematurely age you, don't smoke, quit, even if for vein reasons, just quit, you knuckleheads, you'll thank me later.

[2emeraldeyes]

She was so beautiful when she began making movies, especially in the twilight zone, the one about manicans...forgot what the title of that episode was called. She was grossly underated in my opinion.

[TheStanbabe]

A talented and nice lady and a sad loss..when Annie Francis left us recently..(Crying)Goodbye Annie!

[rankpines49]

I disagree, I think she looked pretty damn good for 52! This was before people ran to their plastic surgeon for eye jobs and neck jobs willy nilly from the age of 35 on! It was a different and better world really. We didn't worry so much about wrinkles and didn't judge as much.

[mrvolcher1]

In this interview she looks at lease 65

[dannys2222]

THIS WOMEN WHO WAS SO GORGEOUS DID NOT AGE VERY WELL!!! SHE LOOKS MUCH OLDER THEN HER 52 YEARS IN THIS INTERVIEW!!!!!

[dclovmoney]

Beautiful woman and a very beautiful young lady R.I.P.

[josephdupont]

SO HOW OLD WAS SHE WHEN SHE DID FORBIDDEN PLANET.?

[John1576able]

The cigarettes smoking is so sad to watch. It was the smokes that got her. R.I.P. Anne.

[britfrenir]

She might have been an episode of Bewitched when Tabitha turned her son into a frog or maybe she just has the same hair style as she does.

[nutyhermit]

Unfortunately, she just died "from complications of cancer". Yet another example of our wonderful "diseasecare system"-getting one cancer from the treatments of another. Thanks again for smoking. I can't believe it!!! RIP Anne, such a wonderful, sexy person.

[singinjohnny]

Obviously a very nice lady. God bless her, indeed.

[glasscitadel12]

such a sweetheart!!

[MerleOberon]

So sexy...RIP

[1dockthorwho23]

I use to have such a crush on Anne Francis as a kid. She was so sweet. I use to look forward to seeing Honey west. But Forbidden planet was in my opinion a really deep meaningful movie.I really enjoyed viewing this video thank you for shearing it with us. Anne was a remarkable actress. She will be missed.

[ReeVERO]

I just discovered her on late night TV with the recent airing of Honey West. I liked her cool character. I decided to look her up and low and behold I found she had her own website. I was going to write to her but decided to wait until my father got out of the hospital, then I heard the sad news that she had passed away. God Bless her! Thanks for the tribute. I only wish I had known about her sooner.

[britfrenir]

@ReeVERO I saw that show on late night too as it is new on Me TV.

[sluggo06]

What do u think happens after we die?

[ccp690]

I think no one knows the answer to that question but I'm absolutely positive that we will know the answer after we're gone. The human spirit lives on after the body withers. Don't have scientific proof but we are not here simply to exist, there has to be an almighty purpose. Please, mechanistic theorists, spare me your platitudes. My solution is to enjoy life as best as possible now in anticipation for the next one. It will all be clear to us when we get there. Peace and love, my friends.

[joycollector]

GREAT raw footage! ...but kind of sad to hear her asking for a cigarette- since that's what killed her.

[hopdoehop]

gone 2 Jan 2011

[TheBobBarron]

RIP Anne Francis....you brought much joy to so many lives.

[Nooraaph]

RIP She was so beautiful inside and out!

[rhjc5462]

God Bless RIP

[geothirtyfive]

She will be missed.

Still "desperately seeking Altaira" here on my end...

[jmen4ever]

My late father loved her Honey west show. She was hot in it to be sure! The first star of the new year to pass.

[therealstevegray]

what a woman!!!!!! very sad

[ginaswo]

God Bless Anne Francis.

[mondocaneman]

RIP Anne Francis, God rest your soul!

[Kramnosnits]

She has a youthful quality that's refreshing. She's not covered with white-trash tattoo's also....a good point in her favor.

[youstupidmoron]

She aged well despite the smoking, when was this filmed? I always thought she was a hottie, loved her in forbidden planet!

[mango66666]

I enjoyed the interview very much, thanks.

[Khultan]

 : ( Smokes cigs : (

[Khultan]

 Wow, thank you : )

[tacticalbattledroid]

amazing upload';-)

[XandersonASH]

I met her and shook her hand at the Mind Dynamics Conference in San Francisco in June of 1970. She holds a special place in my geek heart.

[twinstu50]

Despite the circumstance, Anne Francis shows herself for that which she is, ' A Lady'.

She is a pleasure to watch and see here.

Too many so called 'stars' of today would do well to see this, take mental notes, and apply them accordingly.

Anne Francis has that rare quality, a unique inner beauty.

Her professionalism , her integrity, set her apart, yet she clearly is not 'affected' by this.



[Bohn2]

The movie forbidden Planet had a lot to it Plus I had a Major Crush on Honey West LOL great video/ story thanks for sharing it with us.

[GordonSpot920]

I'm so freakin ancient, I remember her doing the Bonnie Maid commercials for some linoleum company on TV back in the 50's!

[1stsmosh]

what year was this interview done?

[ccp690]

I believe 1982, which would make her about 52 at the time of this interview. She's 79 now and in poor health, having had a lung resected a couple of years ago. But she's still with us, God bless her. A beautiful person, a great talent, and a wonderful human being.

[zappahart]

@ccp690 she just died my friend ...lets pray for her ..i will my friend a wonderful soul!!!

[starboy288]

@ccp690 Yes, this is a terrific interview with a fine & beautiful human being. Forbidden Planet was on TV Sunday night-01.03.11- & the next morning it shocked me when I I opened the paper and found that Ms. Anne Francis had passed to Greater Glory. She was a really natural person with fine insights and a sturdy core. May she rest in Eternal Peace.

[MrChirpsky]

I love Anne Francis. She stars in my all-time favorite Twilight Zone episode "After Hours"! What I wouldn't pay for her "prop" from that!

[holliesaratoga]

@MrChirpsky That was a good one! I think she was even more stunning in the episode Jess Belle though. She's adorable with dark hair.

[JoeMC7]

@MrChirpsky Do you mean the Gold Thimble? I also Love that episode of TZ, I find it difficult to believe that Anne was 30 in that episode "The After Hours". She looks pretty good here for her age, I'm glad she quit smoking though, when she did. I think she quit in the late 80s. I'm also an ex-smoker. One thing that hasn't changed are her incredible blue eyes.

[paintedship]

@JoeMC7 I didn't think 30 was all that old. Oddly though she looks better to me as she got older compared to this interview, maybe dropping the cigarettes had to do with it.

[JoeMC7]

@paintedship Yes, 30 is indeed young, all I meant was that she appeared to be about 21in "The After Hours" episode of The Twilight Zone in 1960.

R.I.P. Anne

I was just reading about her passing.

[JoeMC7]

@MrChirpsky Oh, Duhh, NOW I get it! You mean the mannequin. LOL

[mycorolla07]

@MrChirpsky I love that Twilight Zone episode! Gotta love Ann Francis! Memories,  memories!

[caribeandude1]

I have alway loved and admired Anne Francis. Not only for her great beauty but for her acting talent as well. Loved to see her kick ass in Honey West. She's still beautiful and I'll bet she's a lot of fun to be around.

[thesixtiesguy]

Next time you get a chance to interview a beautiful, classy lady like Anne Francis; please get a more appropriate background. It's a shame to observe her inner and outer beauty, we have to look at this gray backdrop.

[Franquay]

What a hottee, she looks like a bag of fun !!

[Noshad0wk1ck]

wow she is still beautiful even though she is old here marsha dear as the mannequin in the 1960 the twilight zone one of my favorite

[spikeboot]

The interviewer said that her book "Voices from home" had just come out, and she herself said that her daughter Jane was 20, that would place this interview in exactly 1982. Funny thing, she gave up smoking shortly after this and in later years looked "younger" than in this segment. I'm just glad to have seen her show when it was new, she really did help make it the Swingin" Sixties!

[ufocafe]

A great lady. Legends like her are rare.. We should all send her a get well card.

[syndirella08]

I just seen her in 'The Love God' with Don Knotts. I thought and still think she is one amazing lady.

[leanrunnerboy]

..wonderful interview. I had the GREAT pleasure of acting with Annie in a play at Stage West in Edmonton, Alberta (1981). Super, warm, compassionate lady. Not only a fine film actress, but a highly skilled stage performer.

Superb voice & excellent comedic timing..!

[tvdays]

a great lady

[NYCSlain]

@leanrunnerboy

You're very lucky! I envy u.

[jbartz]

what year is this?

[haileysvomit]

shes so lush , a real beautiful woman in all ways ,she made the forbiden planet appart from robbie , i guess ,

[Nguli34689]

What an interesting life she has led. I remember her as a mannequin at the TWILIGHT ZONE.

[The53rrc]

Great interview-she had alot to say about the state of todays world.

[tvdays]

she was and is a class act

[in2food]

I hate when a woman gets a deep voice and further ruins it with smoking. Nothing says do me like a throat full of phlegm.

[marvy1118]

Smokers voice. But I love her anyway.

[moatboat]

One classy lady!

[jackiemurria]

love her eyes and smile you can still see the young woman in there when you visualize.

[jackiemurria]

omg! well doesnt matter she is anne francis no matter the age still beautiful:)

[Hunterunc]

I illustrated the book she speaks of here. She decided to include drawings instead of photos. It was wonderful working with her, as I had been a fan for years. She is one of a kind.

[Danhawk]

She sure is intelligent and shows great compassion. Way ahead of her time then.

[jazzernauts]

Please include the Dates of these interviews!

[jazzernauts]

SciFiWILTF! Is that a mm-m-mole sauce on your chips?

[KangarooSpider]

still a bang

[scotpens]

5:21 -- "Beaming down"? There were no teleportation devices in Forbidden Planet. She must be confusing that film with Star Trek. Or maybe she was thinking of the "DC" stations that enveloped each crewman in a protective force field when the spaceship decelerated from hyperdrive to sublight speed.

Well, this WAS filmed 25 years after the movie was made, and Ms. Francis had done plenty of other work since then. Besides, fans usually remember these details much better than the actors do.

[vitoscarlatti]

Yer still would , wouldn't you...

[moatboat]

In a heartbeat!!

[motorcitymiguel]

Nice..

[danalo7]

She does look marvelous in this clip, but she's not in her late 70s here, this is from about 1982 when her book came out. She looks gorgeous for a 52 year old, for sure. And she still looks lovely today, and I hear that her cancer treatment was succesful and she's doing well, thankfully.

[tvdays]

The only thing wrong with Ann FRancios was my bad lighting.

[DA90027]

Never seen this, thanks...she still looks amazing for her late 70's. SHe is currently battling lung cancer let's hope she is recovering well.

[zeekzippit]

I saw her in Forbidden Planet and she has to be one of the most beautiful women who ever lived! She seems very kind and has a lot of class.

[boggyandbob]

yea nice to know shes aged well, fit as fuck

[monkriddler]

Fantastic - what an actress. I have just finished watching The Forbidden Planet, she is so beautiful.

[johnandrewgallagher]

This is a wonderful artist who started her career as a sex kitten and through working with great people like Cagney, Walsh, Tracy, John Sturges etc. came into her own as an outstanding actress and person. Coming from a woman who went through it all, her observations on life are invaluable to new actors and filmmakers. She was a real pleasure to interview, and I thank Ira for making yet another piece of history available to us all.

[woolcroft]

Anne Francis was the first movie star I fell in love with. thanks for posting this :)

[stratoleft]

@woolcroft You and me both. It doesn't go away either.
