No, its not news, but we can bear with you, mgh, until you come up with a badder clue than that. for sure it isn't Ryan's daughter. Although she pitched up for the role.

Wow, I didn't know Walter Matthau was in Ryan's Daughter.
She got paid a pant-load of money to do this movie, since she just won an Oscar.
She got $350,000 and eight percent of net profits.
Matthau’s contract entitled him to 15 percent of gross receipts over $13 million. In theaters, the film grossed $42,349,782. That means that Matthau's cut was $1,943,648.
But Matthau was also entitled to his cut of the gross receipts of the film's sale to television. In 1979, Paramount packaged the film together with its two sequels for sale to television for $18.5 million. That provoked a lawsuit from Matthau, who believed that the group sale of his film, along with its less-well-performing sequels, reduced the value that his film might have received on its own -- thus lowering Matthau's income. Reportedly, in 1981, a satisfactory settlement was reached out of court.
