Members Llantano Incorporated Posted June 12, 2010 Members Share Posted June 12, 2010 I didn't even watch AW but have become addicted to old Youtube clips, and I cannot wait to read this interview. Constance Ford seemed like an AWESOME presence. They don't make actresses like her anymore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted June 15, 2010 Members Share Posted June 15, 2010 Is it true that David Forsyth (John Hudson) and Anne Heche (Vicky Hudson) had a thing?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 15, 2010 Members Share Posted June 15, 2010 I don't know, I do remember that she supposedly had a thing with Richard Burgi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted June 15, 2010 Members Share Posted June 15, 2010 (edited) Do you remember much about Sandy Corey? Apparently, he was a male hooker. I cant find info on him aside from that. Also, whats up with Spencer Harrison and Amanda? He seems to like her and gets angry when iris is mean to her, but im not sure why. This is long before Amanda mixes it up with his kids.

Members DRW50 Posted June 15, 2010 Members Share Posted June 15, 2010 http://www.igs.net/~awhp/1sandy.html Sandy's main stories on the show were usually his tortured relationship with Blaine Ewing, his marriage from hell to Cecile, and his issues fitting into the Cory family, as he and Jamie often did not get along. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted June 15, 2010 Members Share Posted June 15, 2010 It's true, she talks about it in her book which I skimmed in Barnes & Noble when it came out. She also shared that she was so sexually closed off given her history of abuse at the hands of her father (a gay man who forced oral copulation on her and gave her herpes before later dying of AIDS ) that her best bud/mother figure Anna Stuart bought her a vibrator so she could "get to know herself". One helluva book... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 15, 2010 Members Share Posted June 15, 2010 (edited) Poor Anne, her family history is just horrible, it makes most soap families seem low-key. She is, or was, such a fantastic actress, which is always overlooked. I think the soap format was what suited her talents most, because she was clearly nervous at first and then grew and grew and grew. She was best as Vicky but she was also very good as Marley, especially when she got out of that damn wig.

Members JackPeyton Posted June 15, 2010 Members Share Posted June 15, 2010 Honestly, before watching AW i always wrote her of as that crazy lady.... Now, i see shes a powerhouse actress. Her book sounds heartbreaking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 15, 2010 Members Share Posted June 15, 2010 Her brother was killed in a car accident in the mid-80s, I think. She and her sister fell out over the book and her sister died of cancer a few years ago (I don't remember if they made up or not). I think her mother is some kind of ex-gay speaker who uses Anne Heche's return to being with men as proof that you can be delivered from homosexuality. I don't think she and Anne are close either. Anne has repeatedly said that she was not somehow delivered or cured from being in a lesbian relationship. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted June 15, 2010 Members Share Posted June 15, 2010 Dear god, that poor woman. What awful things to happen to her. it amazes me how good Jensen Buchanan is as Marley and how bad she is as Viki. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted June 15, 2010 Members Share Posted June 15, 2010 Jensen Buchanan... I just... can't. I cannot believe the story that JFP spent $$$$ just to helicopter her ass to and from the studio at a time of her choosing. So much wasted on somebody wrongly considered to be AW's sole asset. Plus Anne Heche cast such a long shadow. People talk about Sarah Brown's Carly making a mark, but Heche's Vicky was both a precursor AND broke the mold. She was incandescent. Her talent jumped off the screen. Her life story sounds beyond tragic. Kudos to her for living her life, turning her back on her past and carving out happiness for herself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 15, 2010 Members Share Posted June 15, 2010 I thought Buchanan, after several years, became a decent Vicky, albeit more of a mainstream heroine Vicky, but I do agree that the show went too far in placating her. I don't think it would have been the end of the world if they'd recast when she left in 1994. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted June 15, 2010 Members Share Posted June 15, 2010 What? They paid her travel expenses? Not surprised, soaps use to do this a lot. In my interview with her, Sandra Ferguson admits to making ridiculous demands before returning and they gave into them all - including flying her to LA twice a month. I wish people would realize that Brown benifited more from fantastic writing/story/costars more than her talent. No doubt she was talented, but she has has an edge over anyone else in the role because all others carlys were reduced to prop work for onny. Braun is by far better, imho, because once she found her footing she turned bad writing into something amazing to watch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
