  • Quotes
    It isn't so easy to live with an actress. I married [Geneviève Bujold--not Isabel or St. Joan or Anne Boleyn---but I live with them all . . . There is a curious internal process going on in her that begins the moment she signs to do a picture. At the first "Action!" she has become the character, and it never leaves her until long after the last "Cut!"
