Compared to dancing, films seemed to me to be the work of lay bums. There was no physical pain; it was enough to say and imagine what was in the script. It was very easy for me.

I like men with some belly who are a little over the hill.

For most of my career, I've played roles that were written for other actresses.

I really wanted to work and become independent.

My first vocation was dance.

On my fifth film, it was then that I stopped dancing.

I chose the most explosive dress I could find. I put a ton of makeup on and some great round earrings. I looked like Jennifer Jones in Duel in the Sun.
