BEFORE THEY WERE OSCAR WINNERS....

Melissa Leo (The Fighter) was Cliff's trouble-making little sister, Linda Warner, on All My Children, happy to taunt Nina about her affairs (complete with spitting, punching, and a serious girl-fight)!



Fun fact: One of the other actresses to audition for the role of Linda was Julia Roberts.

According to EW.com: Joan D'Incecco, then AMC's casting director, says, ''People always ask me, 'You mean you could have hired Julia Roberts! Why didn't you?' All I can say is, I knew she had a special, exotic quality, but she wasn't right for the part. She was just a baby.''
