I didn't think any amount of money was worth something that would take away what you believed in or what you stood for. I didn't want to do something my parents and daughter couldn't be proud of.
I kinda go for the Jane Eyre type of film. I am fascinated by classics.
I'm a loner.
I've always had a fascination for animals. I loved watching them, and even then I thought of them as beings rather than pets. I call it a birth affect!
It quickly became obvious to us that not only the animals in the wild had a problem, but so did the animals in captivity.
My light shines when things get really tough.
The female characters that Hitch would choose-he would take these women and try to tear them down, with basically the man's control. She would not want to give in, and he would insist upon it.
A friend in need is a pest.
Are there any swamps in Oklahoma? Yes, there is. It's called Tulsa.
Have you ever been to Glens Falls? The city limits signs are on the same post.
Hawaii's the 50th state? I thought it was a suburb of Guam.
I know all about cheating. I've had six very successful marriages.
I'd love to be popular in Barcelona. That sounds like a fun job.
I'm a legend in this sport. If you don't believe me, ask me.
If you're poor and you do something stupid, you're nuts. If you're rich and do something stupid, you're eccentric.
It's a dog eat dog world, and Mr. Perfect is a Milk Bone.
North Dakota State. What do you have to do there to graduate? Milk a cow with your left hand?
The money's the same, whether you earn it or scam it.
There's nothing better than a good, blind referee.
There's only two kinds of music I don't like... .Country and Western.
There's the downtown area of Tupelo. Did you see the skyscrapers? Two stories.
You can win, it'll just cost you some money.
You'd have a good voice, if it ever came out of your throat.
Women do not have to sacrifice personhood if they are mothers. They do not have to sacrifice motherhood in order to be persons. Liberation was meant to expand women's opportunities, not to limit them. The self-esteem that has been found in new pursuits can also be found in mothering.
During the production of Roar, both Hedren and her husband at the time, Noel Marshall, were attacked by lions.
She met with Hitchcock and his wife Alma for the final time in London, England in 1966 while she was filming Charlie Chaplin's last film, A Countess from Hong Kong. They took her to tea at Claridge's. The atmosphere was tense, because she knew Hitchcock was upset that she had been cast in what was expected to be a big film, and he was unable to hide his bitterness.
Alfred Hitchcock spotted her in a diet drink commercial on the Today show, and cast her in The Birds. While filming, she was actually cut in the face by a bird in one of the shots.
She participated in a panel at the University of Illinois on "Hitchcock, Women and Terror" in October 2001.
Alfred Hitchcock unsuccessfully pursued a relationship with her during the filming of The Birds.
She is 5' 5" (1.65 m) in height.
During the filming of the last attack scene in The Birds, she became exhausted to the point of sitting down on the middle of the set and crying. A week's rest was ordered by a doctor at that time of completing the film.
She has been married four times. She was married to Peter Griffith (1952-1961), Noel Marshall (1964-1982), Luis Barrenecha (1985-1995), and Martin Dinnes (2002 - present).
Her performance as Melanie Daniels in The Birds is ranked #86 on Premiere Magazine's 100 Greatest Movie Characters of All Time.
She is good friends with Linda Blair.
She operates an exotic animal sanctuary which prompted her testimony in February 2005 in Riverside Superior Court. She made a complaint regarding animal cruelty by a tiger rescuer and was told by U.S. Department of Agriculture that there were not enough inspectors to respond to her complaint. She eventually made room for a lion rather than have it go to the rescuer. She stated she felt like she was walking through a trash dump.
She is the grandmother of Alexander Bauer, Dakota Johnson, and Stella Banderas.
She is a vegetarian.
She is the mother of actress Melanie Griffith.
