Personal Quote:

[on her character in Lolita] I feel sorry for her. She's neurotic and pathetic and only interested in herself. See more »

Trivia:

Was friends with Michelle Phillips at one time and the two of them rented a copy of the novel "Lolita" at the library, knowing it had been banned. Sue later stated that she couldn't finish the book because it was too complex for her, as she was only 12 at the time. See more »
