 God comes to us in theater in the way we communicate with each other, whether it be a symphony orchestra, or a wonderful ballet, or a beautiful painting, or a play. It's a way of expressing our humanity. |
| I really have a generation gap about modern clothes. |
| I have to go back to my younger days, when I just adored Hollywood musicals. |
| I liked The Slipper and the Rose, as I have already mentioned, because it was such a lovely film to do. |
| I would loathe to work on modern films. |
| A lot of it, as it is in any job in life, is being in the right place at the right time. |
| With the black and white films, one was concerned with tone. |
| On the speech day, the production designer, who has a lot of say in things, and sometimes I didn't agree with him but I had to do what I was told, wanted the speech day to be all in neutral colours for the women, which was a good thing. |
| John Schlesinger had one of his friends designing it and he had never done a film before. Ten days before it started, they didn't have any costumes. I was rung up and joined up. |
| You are lucky that I can't sing tonight because I might get carried away. |
| I don't understand what modern clothes are about at all. |
| That's another thing about today's stars that makes me glad that I'm not doing it any more. The stars come with ten people all around them. I don't know how you ever make any personal contact with them. |
| I wish we did have responsibility for the hair. I have been screwed up by the hair on many occasions. |
| I did a film called Dracula and it was very nice because I had lots of trips to New York on Concorde. |
| Richard Chamberlain on The Slipper and the Rose was lovely to work with. He wore the clothes so beautifully and sang his songs so well. |
| I find shoestrings very hard work. I like big budgets. |
| But with period clothes, people know less so they accept the pretty drawing that I give them. |
| The actors nowadays, both young men and young ladies, don't always wear their period clothes as well as they might. They tend to stomp around a bit in them. |
| When you look at Darling and the Oscars, it has to be luck. It was a black and white film and it was the last time that there was a black and white Oscar. |
| I don't know much about football but everyone seems to say that it is all about possession. |
