It's going to be very interesting to see somebody playing me.

I was at the end of the studio system so when I walked into movies, I had a magnificent suite in which I had a living room and a kitchen and a complete makeup room. I had everything just for me. With the independents, you're kind of roughing it, literally.

Because of 'The Birds' and 'Marnie' I was, as the expression goes, hot in Hollywood and producers and directors wanted to hire me.

Everything that I've done in my life was to lead me to my work with the animals.

There were so many people who wanted me for their films.

Hitchcock had a charm about him. He was very funny at times. He was incredibly brilliant in his field of suspense.

So I do have to work, you know, and I find as many movies and TV shows that I can, because otherwise I wouldn't have an income.
