- [on his uncredited contributions to Major Barbara (1940), officially directed by Gabriel Pascal] I co-directed quite a lot of that with David Lean. Pascal knew nothing at all about directing and in the end he paid me quite a lot of money not to have my name [listed] as a director of it. Gabby hadn't the slightest idea--I mean, sometimes he would look through a view-finder the wrong way around! But he had the money, and he had the ear of George Bernard Shaw, which he got for £1! I think Shaw was amused--and bemused--by Pascal.
