 Star Telegram 10/25/2002 'Misery' loves company
For Moore, who directed the original London production that starred Sharon Gless as Annie, looking more closely at the relationship between the writer and his fan became more important than exploiting the horror of it all, which is what happened in Rob Reiner's 1990 acclaimed movie version that earned Kathy Bates an Oscar.
Quite late in the process, I suddenly got enough confidence to be able to write from the point of view of Annie Wilkes and write original dialogue for her, which hopefully doesn't feel different from the wonderful stuff that was already there in the book."
Moreno seems to be in tune with British writer Simon Moore, whose 1992 stage adaptation of Misery Moreno is directing for its North Texas premiere at Circle Theatre.

 glbtq >> arts >> Leibovitz, Annie
One of the most famous and controversial of her photos is a picture of actress Demi Moore, nude and heavily pregnant, which ran on the cover of Vanity Fair in the summer of 1991.
The photograph of Moore is stark and direct in its composition, but many of Leibovitz's pictures are elaborately staged.
Leibovitz is able to get her subjects to use their entire bodies when they pose for her, a talent she exploited as an official photographer for the World Cup Games in Mexico in 1985.

Turner's career and her relationship with Annie Johnson (Juanita Moore) begin on the same day on the beach at Coney Island in 1947.

(Nevertheless, Lana Turner provides an indirect role model for Kohner just as Juanita Moore functions as a mother substitute to Dee.)
