Comedy is difficult, especially slapstick. The trick is to have fun while you are performing it.

As the 1960s began, a new breed of Hollywood leading lady was emerging. She was elegant, international, and wonderfully comedic.

When How Green Was My Valley finally wrapped, I thought John Ford was a walking god.

There's a terrible truth for many women in the picture business: Aging typically takes its toll and means fewer and less desirable roles.

I have never lost my faith in God.
