Where's Patricia?


Whatever happened to Patricia Charbonneau? I know she's played small characters here and there over the years, but other than Cay, I don't know of any other major, mainstream role she's had. Does anyone know if she has another career going for her? I'd hate to think we'll never see her again.

I wish I knew! I saw her on that tv movie One Special Night and nearly fell out of my chair when I saw her. I thought she was a good actress, but Hollywood is cold when actresses get a certain age. I dont see her making appearances or having a website or anything. She seems to be very popular with some people! Maybe she will post on this thread!

I agree. It took a lot of guts to do a movie of this subject matter and I thought both she and Helen Shaver succeeded in portraying the characters they did. I do hope to see more of both actresses sometime soon!

I love you, Victor, but you are not mine.

This movie killed the careers of both Charbonneau and Shaver.

Neither had a significant career that nosedived after this movie.

Added: Keep in mind, when this movie was made (1986) playing a glbt character spelt disaster to one's career. I think it was very brave for Shaver and Charbonneau to play lesbians.

I know she starred in a thriller called Call Me, and a pilot called Dakota's Way--more recently in the movie, She's All That, she played Freddie Prinze's mother in a cameo. I've seen Helen Shaver pretty frequently in films and on TV shows--both lovely and talented actresses!
