Being the object of Alfred Hitchcock's obsession was horrific, but while he ruined my career, he could never ruin my life.

I was studying my 'Bold and Beautiful' script the other day, lying in a hammock, when one of my Siberian tigers walked up and grabbed it out of my hand - she wanted to play. See - teeth marks!

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

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.

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

I really like birds. Everyone always wants me to say that I can't stand to go near them, just like they want Janet Leigh to confess that she can't bear to take a shower. Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you.

Marnie was ahead of its time. People didn't talk about childhood and its effects on adult life. It was taboo to discuss sexuality and psychology and to put all that into a film was shocking.
