    Frances Fisher played an ingenue on "The Edge Of Night" who was the daughter of a crime lord and she became a police detective. Her romance with fellow detective Steve Guthrie was a major love story on the show during the late 70's.

    Claudia’s Theme has to be one of the best scores for a movie, I know we’re not keeping score, but Frances appears in two Best Picture winners, Unforgiven in ‘92 and her best known role in Titanic in ‘97. She looks great, so does Clint, bless them both.

    Well, that certainly was a horse of a different color. You asked the right questions. You could tell direct Clint talk was off the table. Only referenced by her daughters name. I'm guessing that The Edge of Night, like all the soaps were basically audition platforms., Have to say. though The Unforgiven really was an Oscar level film. Incredible movie. Great interview Rob

Watching your interview this afternoon made me decide I'd buy Unforgiven from Amazon Prime. Didn't rent it, we purchased it. We'll get our money's worth out of this purchase over the years to come.

    Well... I've watched that movie (Unforgiven) 50 times and could watch it over and over again. But even though I live in British Columbia/Canada, I didn't know that movie was made in Alberta Canada!!!
    It had to be made by the border with British Columbia/Canada, because Alberta has a only few mountains and those are on the border with British Columbia. Thanks for that info.

    Yet Another Eastwood great western. Liked Hostiles too. However I'm now watching a cult favorite of mine, "Cowboys and Aliens" Certainly not a typical western but I really enjoyed the sci-fi weaved into the Old West. Perhaps it's just the geek in my but I find it most entertaining and enjoyable. Keep posting these.

    I understand why people love that film, and there are some truly great scenes in it. But it is not one of my favorites. For a lot of reasons. Too dark and no heroes to name a couple (strange really, cuz next to westerns, Film Noir is maybe my second favorite genre)... and really, the only one in it I could feel any sort of affinity for was Gene Hackman's Sheriff. Who was supposed to be the villain.
