I know Raft did have some genuine affairs with actresses.

I'm 86 and my doctor used to tell me to slow down - at least he did until he dropped dead.

Now I don't know half of the young people in the industry. It's too spread out, too diffuse.

I should remember more, and I have a pretty good memory.

That is perceptive of you, because in this country men dancers have always been viewed with suspicion. If you were an actor, a star, and a dancer, you had to be, or have a name like someone 'mainstream.'

I was wearing corn plasters above and below my toes and taping my ankles twice.
