As you train and as you develop your talents, you do get better, hopefully, or you get out of the business.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
I think the press does, too it's just the few crazies and paparazzi that give them a bad name. Real writers write good things. My daughter's a writer, and she's a quality writer.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
I stopped making movies because I don't like taking my clothes off. Maybe it's realism, but in my opinion, it's utter filth.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
Do I run around deploring the world? No. I'm just not into it. I was brought up that way.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
I'll be like Irving Berlin: There's no business like show business.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
I've always put my own money into my own shows because today, if you want to stay in the business, you have to produce your own product because there is not enough production and enough people that create today so if you wanna work you produce it or you stay home.

I started to earn money because we didn't have money.

My belief also is that Marilyn Monroe passed away long before she should have left us.

When I was doing theater in the 1950's, 60's and 70's we weren't allowed to film any of the shows that I did, it was against union rules. It was a stupid law, because so much is lost. We now have no record of these famous stage plays, so it turned out to be very narrow-minded thinking.

No one has ever put anything into my suitcase.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
Anything worthwhile is hard, and dancing is very hard, and if you've ever studied dancing of any kind you'd know that to be in precision, three people dancing together.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
[Marilyn Monroe] was a bit temperamental, a little diva-like, but she didn't deserve what she got.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
Marilyn Monroe was a very sweet girl, she was a very innocent girl.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
You probably only know what you've read [about Marilyn Monroe].You didn't know her. The people who talk about her didn't know her either.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
The young people today are really so creative and talented - I mean, the ones who are really are and they get together and produce and create. They're an entirely different breed from what I was when I was their age.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
I wanted to be as comfortable in that environment as she was. I moved around those areas in character.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
Near the end, she [Marilyn Monroe] was badly treated by Fox Studios, during the 'Let's Make Love' film shoot in 1960, they threw her off the set because she had a cold.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
[Las Vegas in the early 1960] was thrilling, exciting... I would describe it as very Parisian.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
I think one of my favourite films is 'Dark Victory' with Bette Davis. Why? She was so wonderful in that film. And maybe I just want a good cry once in a while without having to go through a divorce.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
A lot of people don't feel like doing very much. Or one project is really all they can do at one time. I can have five or six things going at the same time. It doesn't bother me or tire me, but sometimes it does rattle me.
