affair anybody black blonde bombshell changed chinese love man room tough
With a blonde bombshell (Francis) in the picture, there could be no love affair between her and anybody who was not Caucasian. It would (have been) tough enough to even have her in the same room with a black man or a Chinese guy. Those things are all changed today.
moving together
No, no, no, Mel is very much together as a director, always moving forward.
funny
It's a different ballgame, ... It'll be funny, interesting. As actors, we're doing our own writing.
arrested five including people somebody turn until
There were 15 people in the village, including five of us. If my father arrested somebody in the winter, he'd have to wait until the thaw to turn him in.

I wore that same shirt yesterday playing golf, ... There goes the Nike account.
call canadian-actor golf letter
The reason they call it 'golf' is that all the other 4 letter words were used up.
cutting
They've been cutting back on real actors for a long time,
baseball howe last league major steve talking
This is your last chance. And I'm not talking about one of those Major League Baseball Steve Howe kind of last chances.
human respond
You could respond to it on a very human basis.
strong mean guy
In episodic television you'll have a good guy who's on every week and that's his show! He's the regular on it, and you're not going to be "gooder" than he is; I mean, he's the guy who's got to solve your problem! So if you're playing a good guy, you have to have a problem, and he's going to solve it for you. And the only really strong dramatic part is the heavy, because the meaner and crueler and rottener you are, the better the good guy looks when he whips ya' at the end because he always is gonna whip ya! So, the best dramatic guest shot is the heavy.
drama comedy chaplin
When you see Charlie Chaplin, he stays funny. He doesn't become drama, and so what really seems to endure is comedy.
thinking people down-and
I don't think anybody can really sit down and decide that their mission in life is to make people think. I think their mission in life is to leave people alone!
running cheating jealous
I would love to see what's going to happen with science fiction with peoples' heads, because we still have people running around in the year 2050 or 2100 or 2200 and they have incredible technology and you see the effects: laser beams and rays and beaming down and beaming up. Incredible technical things happening, but everybody is still running around jealous, fighting, whacking, cheating. There's got to be something going on! Some kind of change. I'd like to see something starting to happen in that area, with the psychology of the human being and how that changed.
comedy
I love comedy and I hope I never stop doing it.
