animal giving needs
I've had a love of animals from birth. I love getting to know other species. We should all be aware that there is not one thing we can give a wild animal in captivity that they need.
people childhood psychology
'Marnie' was ahead of its time. People didn't talk about childhood and its effects on adult life. It was taboo to discuss sexuality and psychology and to put all that into a film was shocking.
funny men serious-man
Working with Chaplin was very amusing and strange. His films are so funny, but working with him, I found him to be a very serious man. Whereas the films of Hitchcock are macabre, he could be a very funny man to work with, always telling jokes and holding court. Of course, when I worked with Charlie he was getting older.
daughter mother thinking
I didn't think any amount of money was worth something that would take away what you believed in or what you stood for. I didn't want to do something my parents and daughter couldn't be proud of.
feelings awful return
To be the object of somebody's obsession is a really awful feeling when you can't return it.
animal pet fascination
Ive always had a fascination for animals. I loved watching them, and even then I thought of them as beings rather than pets. I call it a birth affect!
interesting very-interesting
It's going to be very interesting to see somebody playing me.
cat insanity pet
It has become my mission to stop the insanity of wild cats as pets.
desire awful obsession
I don't know if you have ever been the object of someone's obsession - but if it's not of your desire, it is horrible. It is really awful.
cat men thinking
In fact, I think I have had a ghost in my house. Although not active lately, unexplainable things would happen and the kitties were particularly sensitive - especially, Marlon Brando... the cat not the man.
dream black wake-up
Honest to God, all my life I have had such a fear of spiders. In fact, I use to have a reoccurring dream about one. Very clearly, it was black with a red head. It would sit up in the corner of the bedroom and when it started getting closer, I would wake up in a panic.
expression bird hot
Because of 'The Birds' and 'Marnie' I was, as the expression goes, hot in Hollywood and producers and directors wanted to hire me.
careers ruins obsession
Being the object of Alfred Hitchcock's obsession was horrific, but while he ruined my career, he could never ruin my life.
film type fascinated
I kinda go for the Jane Eyre type of film. I am fascinated by classics.
