Here's my question. An actress who moved to London from her homeland in the 1960s, she starred in a cult film and later married a well known American pop singer/songwriter. Her role in the film caused an uproar in her home country that kept her from returning there.

I'll tell you a little more. There's a famous Canadian born actor who starred in the film as well. His son is now also a well known actor. Help any?

Can only think of two films that could be called 'cult' films with Sutherland

Klute   Jane Fonda

Don't Look Now      Julie Christie

But cannot make the connection with an american pop singer

You're doing good, Dave. It is Sutherland who starred in the movie with this actress. She made only a few films after this one including a bit part in Myra Breckinridge although she had been considered for the lead role in the movie. She married the singer/songwriter in the later 60s, early 70s and they had some drug problems for a while. He was not a solo artist, but a member of a very popular group at the time made up of two men and two women. He had a daughter with one of the members of the group who is also an actress in the US although drug problems have always stymied her career.

James, You're absolutely right. Good one. I was afraid it was a little obscure, but you seem good at getting those. I loved the music in the movie Joanna and also Rod McKuen's work. Your turn if you have time before your trip!
