I've been married to one Marxist and one Fascist, and neither one would take the garbage out.
I pretty much always stuck to the most interesting part I could play.
You don't need a love scene to show love.
I've made a five-minute video on 'The Battering of Hillary Clinton.'
It's a very good feeling to be around a man who thinks women are juicy.
I was 24 when I was blacklisted. I was 36 when I got off the blacklist. How much of a life does an actress have in L.A. past 25? ... I was really scared of having producers know that I was on my way to 40.
I am proud of Kirk. I think he drums to his own drummer in every way.
I don't think I fit the Marilyn Maxwell mode.
This is our lives. The way to give it dignity is to tell the truth.
I was such a Jewish princess. My whole life was leading up to marrying a rich man and living on 48th Street.
My instinct was that it was Sidney's childhood in the Bahamas that gave him the fearlessness to fight racism. So this documentary was a kind of rounding out of what had begun in that scene in In the Heat of the Night.
Since I'd developed this fear of not remembering my lines, I took 'Mulholland Drive' as a test for myself. It was a long monologue: no one else speaks.
Every actor in the room honored Sidney for being there so many years before. And everybody was so moved to be at a place where history was being made again. It was tangible.
I watch a lot of television. The stuff that they're putting on television, series like 'The Americans' and 'Game of Thrones,' it's so superior to most of the films that are coming out of Hollywood in terms of drama, certainly in terms of what we're interested in.
I find that the stuff on television is more exciting than the films, which are for teens almost.
I did my very first film with Kirk in Detective Story when he was the greatest, greatest star in the world. I fell in love with him, had a crush on him then.
The best actors just stay in the moment,and whatever happens in the scene is a genuine surprise. You really do not know what's going to happen next. But living that out in life is very dangerous because it throws you into a place where you don't know if you're going to survive.
When I was on stage in the '50s, it was a glory time, a golden time with Tennessee Williams and Arthur Miller. There was real talent. And now, the theater is a little Disney-fied.
I was such a New Yorker, I hardly knew what the Oscars were.
Kirk is a man, and he loves it. He loves women.
