[on Brandon De Wilde, with whom she worked in Shane (1953)] Brandon was a brat! So precocious. He didn't like girls, and he would pull my pigtails and chase me around the set. Hide

[her memories of working on Shane (1953)] The movie was shot on location in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Alan Ladd and I both went up the chair lift to the top of a mountain. I went down the lift by myself, but Ladd was too scared to come down! Finally, they sent a helicopter to rescue him; he was too chicken to go down. The cast and crew never let him hear the end of it!

[on how she was cast in Spider Baby or, The Maddest Story Ever Told (1967)] How I got that role is a story in itself. One day I was shopping at a grocery store in Los Angeles, where I lived, and I noticed that every time I looked up, there was a guy in the same aisle staring at me. He seemed to be following me and finally he approached me and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, and I don't mean to be staring, but aren't you an actress? You look very familiar." He then said he was involved in the making of a horror movie and would like me to come in and audition. I wasn't sure if he was for real because the auditions that I always went on were set up through my agent. He then said the name of the movie was "Cannibal Orgy". Although he was very nice, it seemed a little odd to me, but then he said the film was starring legendary horror icon Lon Chaney Jr. I still wasn't sure if he was for real, but he didn't ask for my home phone number, he just gave me the audition info and told me to have my agent get in touch with them. That made it seem legitimate, so I had my agent call the next day and set it up. Hide
