There certainly is such a thing as screen chemistry, although I don't believe you find it frequently.

I was shocked and saddened to learn of the passing of my sister, Joan Fontaine ... and I appreciate the many kind expressions of sympathy that we have received.

One must take what comes, with laughter.

It's hard to keep on being civil when they ask you such annoying questions.

I don't need a fantasy life as once I did. That is the life of the imagination that I had a great need for. Films were the perfect means for satisfying that need.
