Frances Conroy is perfection. ...Continue »
I became a Frances Conroy fan after I saw her work on Six Feet Under. I think the role of Ruth Fisher was made for her. She made every scene she was in a joy to watch. It is too bad she is not more reconised for her talent. She has a glow about her when she is on screen that just captivates the viewer. Some of the things she does in her work for example just a facial expression brings so much life to her characters. I really am looking foward to her upcoming projects. I will always be a fan of this brillant actress.
