Cindy talks “Caddyshack” and “Tron”
Cindy gives some great background on her experience:
Caddyshack was my first film and I’ll say that the end product was so completely different, it was originally about the caddies.
So at first, I had nothing to lose to audition. It was fun. All I did was focus on making the person sweat. Look ‘em in the eye, do that thing many woman know how to do….
They didn’t make it easy on me.
The real transformation came when producer John Peters sprung on me the night before that Playboy was coming to the set to shoot me and I said no. They came anyway and Peters said “You are f***ed in this business!” (for refusing to do the shoot) and my agent didn’t handle it.
From that moment on, Cindy Morgan was Lacey Underall.
