Shirley MacLaine
I'm very aware, but I'm very naïve. When you are really naïve and expecting safety and expecting the best, you don't feel you're taking risks. You can get smacked a little, but usually it works out pretty well. I would say that, as much as you can instill your open-minded naivety, if you're basically open minded, then you can do damn near anything.
Shirley MacLaine
You have to be talentedly insecure in order to be a good actress. And then it's the director's job to make you more miserable and get a good take.
Shirley MacLaine
I've gotten crankier in my old age.
