Having the critics praise you is like having the hangman say you've got a pretty neck.

Critics is 4 letter word: nasty, jealous, jaded and bitter. Critics admire is like a hangman say - you've got a charming neck honey.

My wife says that stage acting is like being on a tightrope with no net, and being in the movies, there is a net - because you stop and go over it again. It's very technical and mechanical. On stage you're on your own.

I've worked with wonderful actors like Marlon Brando and Henry Fonda.

The trouble with that movie is that you had to see Chinatown the day before you saw The Two Jakes.
