I saw Anne in her career swan song so to speak, a 2004 appearance on Without a Trace, and may I say that the woman still looked as gorgeous as ever at the age of 73 or 74. Rest in peace, Anne. You will be missed.

Just watching the pilot episode of "Murder She Wrote", & seeing all the deceased actors from the episode: Arthur Hill, Brian Keith, Raymond St. Jacques, Burt Convey & last Anne Francis. I have to check out "Honey West".

R.I.P Anne .
Sure "Forbidden Planet" , "Bad Day at Black Rock" and "Blackboard Jungle" would be enough to leave a great legacy . Add to these three movies her appearances in all the best shows from the classic era of tv and you can bet she'll never be forgotten .
So sad . We will miss you , Anne . -

Not only have I heard and read it, I personally spoke to her several years ago, and she said she respected his considerable talent, but loathed him personally. I have heard the exact same thing from many other actresses who worked with him.

'Also, she suffered the indignity of having Babs, the prima donna, cut and gut nearly her entire performance in Funny Girl.'
Why are you sure of this? I know it sounds sensationalistic, but do you have info the rest of us don't? -

R.I.P. Yet another beautiful and talented actress has passed away. In addition to "Forbidden Planet," I will always remember her as the mannequin who does not realize that she is one in The Twilight Zone episode "The After Hours."
