Personal Quote:

[on Tuesday Weld] She's a complicated lady and a gifted one; she finally does emerge in Play It As It Lays. She's really so good in this, so super, and as far as her behavior is concerned, her comportment, she was just flawless -- I mean just a perfect child. She was there every day, on time, and worked like a tremendous professional. All that talk about her being a terror -- not a trace. See more »

Directed 2 actresses to Oscar nominations: Catherine Burns (Best Supporting Actress, Last Summer), and Carrie Snodgress (Best Actress, Diary of a Mad Housewife). See more »
