Quotes
[on Stanley Kubrick]: He invited me to see him and I had at least four or five interviews. He gave me the MI5 treatment - "What kind of hours do you work? What time do you go to bed? Are you married? Do you go on holidays?" He wanted somebody who was going to be there seven days a week, twenty-two hours a day, and, indeed, I did work very long hours for him. But, my God, what a great experience! He's a fascinating, funny, brilliant, eccentric fellow. I wouldn't have missed working with him for the world.
