Art cards in Blu-Ray version; who is this?












3















I recently bought the Blu-Ray version of Forbidden Planet which contained some Art cards. If you have this version, look at the cards; in one there's a photo of Anne Francis's character, Alta, with Robbie the robot and two members of the crew but it's not Anne Francis! Her hair-and legs!- are totally different, so who is this and why is she in the movie?

    And for all us folks who don't have that version, could you please edit in a picture so it's clearer (for us and future readers) who you're talking about? :)

  • I conjecture this was a publicity still taken with an actress/model/assistant when Anne Francis was not available. It may never be possible to identify who she is.

I think that is Anne Francis, but she does not look right in that picture because the image was seemingly created from a black-and-white still that was ineptly colored. Notice that the colors on the uniforms are totally wrong. Compare the buff in the lobby card to the correct blue-gray (where I selected an image manifestly taken from a viewing of the film).



Blue-gray uniforms



Although he is seen mostly from behind, the leftmost individual in the lobby card photo certainly appears to be Leslie Nielsen.



Anne Francis's probably most notable feature was probably her unusual eyes (eyes that served her well in her Twilight Zone appearances), which the woman in the picture has. What makes her look wrong is the poor job done on coloring her hair, and to a lesser extend shading her face. For reference, here is another black-and-white picture of Francis wearing the same costume as in the lobby card picture.



Anne Francis in Costume



The costume appears totally different in its proper hues, but those look like the same legs to me.

  • The scene occurs at about 1:38:30 in the film just for reference. Imdb also has the black & white original photo.
