Personal Quote:

[on Burt Lancaster] The Prince in "The Leopard" was a very complex character -- at times autocratic, rude, strong -- at times romantic, good, understanding -- and sometimes even stupid, and above all, mysterious. Burt is all these things too. Sometimes I think Burt is the most perfectly mysterious man I have ever met in my life. See more »

Suffered a stroke during the filming of Ludwig - Le crépuscule des Dieux (1972). See more »
