Anne Francine is a cabaret singer and actress. She played the role of Fran in Crocodile Dundee. In addition, she played the Evil Queen in the live TV version of Snow White! Even still, most knew her due to her villainous role as Flora, in Harper Valley PTA.
In 1954, she made her Broadway debut with Shirley Booth in By the Beautiful Sea. She stepped in for the legendary Bea Arthur as Vera Charles in the 1966 Broadway production of Mame, starring Angela Lansbury. Incredibly enough, she and Lansbury reprised their roles in the 1983 Broadway revival. In 1987, she made her last appearance on Broadway as Mrs. Harcourt, in the revival of Anything Goes, starring Patti LuPone. Unfortunately, Fran was her last role, as she passed away in 1999.

Christine Totos
Totos is quite a mystery. Not very much is known about her, and she does not have a lot of acting credits. Needless to say, she played Rosita in Crocodile Dundee, but aside from that, she has just had small roles.
The actress is mainly known for The Young Wife, The Custodian, and The Cut. Her most recent acting credit was in a short film called Ralph, where she played a teacher. Although she is now known as Khristina Totos, she was credited for her role in Crocodile Dundee as Christine Totos. Why the name spelling change? We are not sure. It is just as much of a mystery as her career.
