Marian Seldes

I have had a career in which, almost without exception, every single person I've worked with has helped me.

I always think of myself as an 18-year-old beginning my career, all the time.

I know I'm funny, because I'm eccentric, I'm odd. I'm not what you expect.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.

Being down in Orlando, Florida, where we filmed the movie, I learned how to bass fish. Jerry Reed, who plays the villain in the movie, taught me how to bass fish.

You have to be forward-moving and able to balance a lot of things at the same time. I attribute a lot of that to the Marine Corps and Juilliard both.
