Jacqueline Bisset
I wanted to go to acting school, and I did a few modeling jobs to pay for acting school. I never aspired to be a model. I met lots of photographers, and I learned a lot about light - as a source of love and illumination, light as a gift of love. On film, that's a massive contribution.
Jacqueline Bisset
I have never given up on men easily.
Jacqueline Bisset
You can sometimes learn more working with less talented people, because you learn to survive.
