- My favorite novelist is Jerzy Kosinski. I read his "Painted Bird" right after shooting "Misty Beethoven" [The Opening of Misty Beethoven (1976)]. It probably saved my life. I was so depressed after that movie. The book lifted me out of it.
- I didn't get paid for [The Opening of Misty Beethoven (1976)]. Nor did I sign a release. I didn't have a good attitude and I didn't like Henry Paris ["Misty" director Radley Metzger].
- "Misty" [The Opening of Misty Beethoven (1976)] is a good movie because it is real. The incidents in the film were happening to me at the time, especially my relationship with Jamie [Jamie Gillis]. Henry Paris [director Radley Metzger] made me that character. He told me I couldn't act, so I fit the part.
