Willa Ford ALREADY played Anna Nicole


Willa Ford did an amazing job playing her, why not recast her or even not make another movie? Why is another one needed?

reply

Especially since the first one wasn't needed

You betcha. And Hal Holbrook already played Lincoln, so what's up with Daniel Day-Lewis?

I just laughed out loud, Warped.

I personally haven't seen the Willa Ford version, but I've read reviews and don't plan on it...

reply

Thanks very much, Allison. Your aim is true!

I haven't seen either version, and I don't plan to seek either out (or rule them out, for that matter).

Willa Ford was horrible and that movie was cheap and tacky. This one looks good and much more realistic.

Dammit Carol Sue, where is the vodka?!

UM....did you even SEE the Willa Ford version? It was a JOKE. The entire thing felt like a MadTV sketch. Fat suit and all.

This woman had a lot of bad things happen to her.

Yeah, she had a lot of problems but so do many of the people who hold celebrities like her up on a pedestal then cast them aside as trash when they make a mistake.

I for one cant wait to see this new version. Hopefully Anna will finally be portrayed as a human being instead of a fat, drug joke. We've all heard them all before. Now lets see the PERSON behind the headlines. Trailer looks amazing.

The first movie was horrendous, and Lita Ford was even worse.


This isn't too bad so far, it has decent actors in it and a good budget for a TV movie.

"The first movie was horrendous, and Lita Ford was even worse."

LOL...Lita Ford was a rock singer.

I haven't thought of Lita Ford in years!

It's no one's fault other than Anna Nicole's herself for why she's seen as a joke, she carried herself as one and ALLOWED herself to be an object. When you lower yourself to the standards of only being seen as an object, you are easily disregarded and its sad when people like you try to play the sympathy card for woman like Anna because it often skids over the truth. Of course it's sad how her life turned out because it could of turned out way differently but you can't make her out to be the innocent victim.

Sorry, but that previous tv movie was horrible! It was an awful rush job that insulted everyone involved. I'm so glad they did this Anna nicole's story again, because it really is a great, larger than life hollywood fairytale-turned nightmare. Lifetime will never produce any masterpieces, but this new version was actually quite good. They really tried to cover all the main points of her life in the short time they had. Anna Nicole was a sweet, but damaged person, and she deserved a decent retelling of her story.
