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.

I don't know if you have ever been the object of someone's obsession - but if it's not of your desire, it is horrible. It is really awful.

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

To be the object of someone's obsession is horrible.

Birds I am fine with - spiders are an entirely different matter.

It is up to the public to stop attending these theatrical, and aquatic shows, and circuses with wild animals. The rhetoric about how the animals are happy and well cared for are lies. Don't be swayed by them. The money behind these shows is huge; there is nothing good about them.

If people could be as honest as animals, what a different world it would be.
