Frances Conroy Retiring From Acting?

Yes, it’s not a good source but this is a gay gossip site.

And why is her family making statements on her behalf? If she ill?

If she has a health isue, I'm guessing it's dementia or Alzheimer's and someone in the family has POA/medical guardianship over her.

No! Francis say this isn't so...

Balenciaga!

R4 Frances is/was the best thing about AHS! Balenciaga, indeed! She and Leslie Jordan were a great team.

Ruth Fisher is going to die next year.

[quote]She and Leslie Jordan were a great team.

In his emerging social media posts at that time Leslie gleefully reported how utterly humorless Frances was with his on-set antics. She came across as no fun at all.

R7, I was thinking the same thing as well! It would be eerie if Conroy died in the. year the series predicted for her.

R8 I don’t remember that!

A few years ago her appearance changed in a way suggesting stroke or another neurological issue, but I don't think she spoke about it publicly.

Is she retiring retiring or retired until Ryan Murphy comes a-calling?

She’s only 71. Hope this is voluntary.

R11 She spoke about it a lot - she was in a car wreck

R14, yes, she's spoken about her corneal scarring and it's been visible to varying extents in her work for a long time. That's not what seemed off about her, but as R13 said, hopefully she's fine and this is voluntary.

Oh, dear.

r15 She's spoken about it a lot - especially considering the way r11 was confused.

She'll always be Ruth Fisher to me. Incredible actor.

Why couldn't she get a corneal transplant?

I don't blame here. Enjoy your dotage, Frances. Who needs all that silly showbiz crap? Get far away from LA and live your life around real people. Hollywood is so trashy.

She's in her early 40's, far too young to retire, something is up.

by Anonymousreply 21November 26, 2024 5:03 AM

She's 71

by Anonymousreply 22November 26, 2024 5:06 AM

It's weird to think that she was only 48 when she started on Six Feet Under. She really made Ruth look and act like someone pushing 70.

r19 Try google

The show begins on Christmas Eve 2000, R23. Ruth was supposed to be a non glamorous 54 yo housewife, and she indeed looks exactly like one.

by Anonymousreply 25November 26, 2024 10:04 AM

Who?

by Anonymousreply 26November 26, 2024 10:17 AM

She was 48 in 2001, born in 1953. Non-glamorous is really underselling how dour she was for most of that show. She dressed like the wife in the American Gothic painting.

*dowdy not dour

She's only 12 years older than Peter Krause.

I like her Twilight Zone episode with Uta Hagen.
