Having children with someone is the real bond.

I am pretty self-indulgent.

Roman's wife Sharon Tate had been murdered by Charles Manson the year before, but Roman had been through so much leaving the Warsaw ghetto that he was very strong and private.

Too often, older women are seen as victims, but I know lots of formidable women who have marvellous jobs as well as a full erotic life, and children and friends and family.

Judi Dench and Ian McKellen taught me how to work hard and respect the theatre.

I have yet to see a drama that puts forward women who are successful and have a family. Women are nearly always seen as victims.

I never pursued being 'famous.'
