The Country Girl 1982 Faye Dunaway Dick Van Dyke Ken Howard
Dunaway writes in her autobio Looking for Gatsby:
"About that time, I was approached about starring in a remake of The Country Girl to be aired on the cable network Showtime, as part of its Broadway series. It was to be staged more like the original Clifford Odets play than a movie. I had loved the 1954 classic starring Grace Kelly and Bing Crosby. It was exactly the kind of part I was looking for, substance without glamour, a woman with strength and softness.
Dick Van Dyke was cast as the alcoholic actor desperate for a comeback, and I would play the long-suffering wife, a part which had won Kelly an Oscar. Ken Howard, big and blond, played the director, the man who holds Van Dyke's comeback in his hands. It was the role Bill Holden had played in the original. I had long wanted to do The Country Girl. I had read the play many, many times. It was one of the books and plays that I would turn to when I would get up in dead of night not able to sleep. I would read sections into my tape recorder, listen to the playback, and do it until I thought it sounded right, sounded true. I was anxious to get those words to work with, to finally try them out for real.
I came to adore Dick Van Dyke, who is without question one of the sweetest and funniest men in the world. Though it was a valiant effort on all our parts, and there were moments that I thought were good and true, the remake fell short of our hopes and certainly of the original. Bu doing it helped remind me that I do love this business of acting, something the Crawford movie had come close to making me forget."

Faye Dunaway 1988 Burning Secret Good Morning America
Very interesting interview where Faye discusses raising her 8-year-old son, and mentions several other actresses working in the business in the late 80s - Melanie Griffith, Michelle Pfeiffer, Jessica Lange, Cher, Meryl Streep and Shirley MacLaine. She also discusses her role as the loving mother of a 12-year-old son in Burning Secret, her first maternal role since playing the "monster Mother of all time" 7 years earlier in Mommie Dearest.

Welcome back!! Love to see some Burning Secret promo. Her hair looks beautiful. Did she do much American press for that one? I know she attended the premiere (in NYC maybe?) which is more than most of the movies she made around that time.

Todd, I'm so devastated to see that your Youtube channel is gone. Sick to my stomach, honestly. Your channel was an absolute treasure and resource for so many Faye projects I'd never get the chance to see otherwise, and that I would revisit from time to time. I hope it's not gone forever. Were there too many copyright strikes? Without you, I'd never have gotten to see the Disappearance of Aimee, Evita Peron, The Country Girl, Ellis Island, Christopher Columbus, Raspberry Ripple, Casanova, On a Moonlit Night, Wait Until Spring Bandini, Cold Sassy Tree, A Family Divided... and on and on... think about that for a minute? Imagine never getting to experience those Faye performances, except in your imagination. That's what I was experiencing without your channel. Not to mention your archive of Faye interviews. I just wanted to thank you again for sharing and say I'm so sorry if this is YouTube removing your channel because of copyrights. Sorry for all the trouble.
