More quotes by Debbie Reynolds
Singin' in the Rain (1952) and childbirth were the two hardest things I ever had to do in my life.
Debbie Reynolds
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.
Debbie Reynolds
I'm not a big shoot-em-up, bang-bang. I like romantic films.
Debbie Reynolds
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
I always avoid not working.
Debbie Reynolds
If you're a dancer, study singing. You have to do everything and do it well. You have to study acting. You have to study all of it. You have to find workshops, get out on the stage...and fail.
Debbie Reynolds
I've always had life threats, and they've always been for real.
Debbie Reynolds
I have over five thousand costumes and props and cars, and I have a twenty-five thousand square foot warehouse full of memorabilia.
Debbie Reynolds
That's what a writer does they make things up and that makes for good reading.
Debbie Reynolds
I wanted to be as comfortable in that environment as she was. I moved around those areas in character.
Debbie Reynolds
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
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.
Debbie Reynolds
I never thought about doing men. Never.
Debbie Reynolds
[Las Vegas in the early 1960] was thrilling, exciting... I would describe it as very Parisian.
Debbie Reynolds
[Bob Fosse] was a temperamental fellow - it was his way or the highway.
Debbie Reynolds
I loved Frank [O'Connor], he was wonderful...just don't get on his bad side. I don't think I would have wanted to marry him, but I probably should have since I married idiots anyway.
Debbie Reynolds
I tour all year, 42 weeks a year, so it's hard for me to remember every place I play.
Debbie Reynolds
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.
Debbie Reynolds
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
I'm very strict with myself. I'm an Aries and sort of a challenge to myself.
