One of the earliest films that I remember watching in the first several years of my life was Forbidden Planet. Anne Francis starred as Altaira in this film. I am led to believe that it was the first sci-fi flick to be given both a big budget and to filmed in colour. Forbidden Planet remains to this day one of my all time favorite movies.
Over the years Anne has appeared in a multitude of movies and television programs. From 1965 to 1966 she starred in a telly series titled Honey West, as a private investigator... with a whole lotta James Bond.
More recently Anne has been battling with lung cancer (2007-2008) and is now going through a recovery stage. Best wishes Anne!
