Personal Quote:
These girls I've played are naive and pure. They are looking for someone to really love. But they aren't very bright, and they haven't been brought up in a family situation that enables them to evaluate. As for the prostitutes, well they're 'loved' every 20 minutes, or what substitutes for love in about 90% of American homes-- I'm pretty cynical about that.

Trivia:
Never pulled the diva act and was not overly-possessive about her award-winning stage roles. In fact she gamely coached
Shirley MacLaine on the set of
Sweet Charity (1969), who was recreating Gwen's title character.
