As Robert Altman once told me, “If you never gave me a bad review, what would a good review mean?” He was a great man. He thought over what he had said, and added: “But all your bad reviews of my films have been wrong.”
Lee Marvin: “What?”
Michelle Triola: “I said Jean Seberg has good insides,” Michelle said.
Lee Marvin: “Jesus Christ, I’m living with a dyke!” Marvin said. Whistle! Pop! “My ex-wife had something about Playboy when I read it”
Michelle Triola: “Playboy exploits women,” Michelle said. “Women’s liberation is against Playboy.”
Lee Marvin: “Against Playboy?” Marvin said. “Whyever more?”
Michelle Triola: “It exploits women,” Michelle said. “It presents women as sex objects.”
Lee Marvin: “Why not?” Marvin said. “Take a snatch away from a broad and what’s she got left?” Marvin spread his legs and breathed deeply.” Oh me oh my, why must I be a sex symbol? Why won’t they let me act?”
Low self-esteem involves imagining the worst that other people can think about you.
That means they’re living upstairs in the rent-free room.
