1 | I look best from a great distance and in a bad light. I have a peculiar face, an odd walk and about as much sex appeal as a goat. I was the worst peril Betty Hutton encountered as Pauline [in The Perils of Pauline]. |
2 | Each picture has given me an inferiority complex. I've become face conscious. Projection rooms are torture chambers to me, at this point. When I saw the first day's rushes on To Each His Own (1946), I went home and started packing. I had thought I was smiling tenderly at Olivia de Havilland, but, on screen, I looked as though I were ready to bite her ear off, and I didn't have any eyes at all. After that, I refused to look at myself, but I began enjoying the work. |
