Anne Francis, RIP

Another sad day yesterday for the passing of Anne Francis. She played opposite Leslie Nielsen in FORBIDDEN PLANET, a movie I’ve talked about more than once on this blog. She was a very beautiful actress, and, I might add, would have been great for the part of Samantha Jones, in my novel, KILLER OF KILLERS, if it would have been made into a movie back when she was in her prime. (But, of course, I hadn’t written it yet.)








Here she is when she broke into Hollywood.










Here's Anne in her prime.













And here she is in a more recent photo.
