You bring out a lot of your own thoughts and attitudes when acting. I think a great deal of it has to do with the inner you.

Perhaps I am old-fashioned, but black and white films still hold an affectionate place in my heart; they have an incomparable mystique and mood.

I believe in dressing for the occasion. There's a time for sweater, sneakers and Levis and a time for the full-dress jazz.

My love for ice cream emerged at an early age - and has never left!

When two people love each other, they don't look at each other, they look in the same direction.

My mother told me I was dancing before I was born. She could feel my toes tapping wildly inside her for months.

I traveled with my mother, Lela, and there was never enough money. I always had to roll down my silk stockings and carry a doll when we bought train tickets so I could go half-fare. If we had $3, we always figured how to tip for the trunks and still eat.
