    Anne Francis passed away

    Obituary: Anne Francis dies at 80; costarred in the 1950s science-fiction classic 'Forbidden Planet' - latimes.com

    Another Twilight Zone alumnus, Forbidden Planet star, and Rocky Horror Picture Show reference gone. She was really cool, and a real knockout in her prime. I never saw Honey West before, and never realized that was her as well...

              Just saw her on Twilight Zone episode about the mannequins.
              Just saw the news blurb too.

                Damn!

                I loved her in whatever she did.

                Now two more of the main Forbidden Planet stars are gone. Hang in there Earl Holliman, Richard Anderson and Warren Stevens.

                  AW MAN! I really dug Anne Francis over the years....Honey West is an absolute fav of mine (Grab the complete DVD set folks...It's awesome!) as is her "After Hours" appearance on TZ.

                  Even my kids'll be bummed...they've learned of her through the mannequin episode and I just connected the dots for them recently in regards to her name drop in "Science Fiction Double Feature" which they learned from "Glee" believe it or not
