I've Never Met An Animal

Some Of The Downbeat Pictures, In My Opinion, Should Never Be Made At All. Most Of Them Are Made For Personal Satisfaction, To Impress Other Actors Who Say "oh, God! What A Shot, What Camera Work!"

The Succession Of Cheerful, Period Musicals I Made, Plus Oscar Levant's Widely Publicized Remark About My Virginity, Contributed To What Has Been Called My "image", Which Is A Word That Baffles Me.

In The Press, My Sex Life Was Something Else Again. I Was Lady Bountiful Of The Sheets. Some Of The Best Fiction Of The Sixties Was Written About My Amorous Adventures With An Assortment Of Lovers Who Could Have Only Been Chosen By A Berserk Random Sampler.

It Is Heartbreaking To See So Many Animals In Distress Through The Gulf Coast Region. Many Of Them Are Frightened, Confused, Hungry, Dehydrated And Lost.
