I think she was undervalued and always seemed like such a sweetheart, except for the time she played a twisted serial killer.
I'm a huge fan. I loved her in "The Attic", an excellent, low-budget psychological drama.

I like her in everything. She can do no wrong. My only problem with "Diary" is that I can't stand Richard Benjamin. What a jerk. They lived in a fabulous apartment.

She was a great villain in the Charles Bronson movie Murphy's Law.

Right at the prime of her career, she started a long relationship with Neil Young. After their child was born with autism, she put her career on hold to focus on raising the kid, and never really got that initial momentum back, though she did good work in films like Pale Rider later on.
Would have been interesting to see what she could have done otherwise. I thought she was a good actress.

Without checking I am guessing she was the sympathetic teacher in Carrie right?

She was a great villain in the Charles Bronson movie Murphy's Law. Yeah, that's it. I forgot the name. Toasted Cheese recommended that one to me. It was enjoyable.

Most of Bronson's 80's entries were enjoyable. He had a unique screen presence like none other. Murphy's Law - 86' is one of my favorites, along with 10 to Midnight - 83', Death Wish 2 - 81' and Death Wish 3 - 85'.
Bronson had one released in 1980 called Death Hunt, set in 1930's Yukon wilderness with Lee Marvin, Angie Dickinson and Andrew Stevens. He must've had a rapport with him, considering they teamed up again for 10 to Midnight. I liked Bronson's contemporary set films the best, but DH is still a goody. It is a true manhunt story and Bronson is the one being hunted by the authorities.

Yes, enjoyed her in Diary of a Mad Housewife, The Fury, The Attic. I especially love her characters in "The Fury" and "The Attic". The latter one I feel so sorry for her. Ray Milland did a really good job later in his career playing sour, cantankerous old geezers. He always looked one bowel movement away from the blue bird of happiness.

He was also a handsome man. You never hear that about him.

It was so good! Ray Milland was a really good looking and great actor back in the day. He was also a raging alcoholic. I remember seeing him in a horror movie that took place in the swamp. It was called Frogs, and it was TERRIBLE!  My friends and I saw it in a drive-in back '72. So sad that he was making cheap horror movies! Made another one with Rosie Grier call The Thing with Two Heads. It was so cheesy!! Such a shame. Milland was such a talent.

Bronson had a commanding screen presence for a little guy, but I never found him particularly great looking or sexually appealing myself. Now Stevens was a handsome man.

Now Stevens was a handsome man. Andrew Stevens was adorable. Though I can never picture him getting together with my favorite Angel. Unless it was for certain, ummm, semi-obvious reasons.
