Nastassia...
:06:07
I believe this was her
:06:11
third film in English.
:06:13
She had done Tess
and One From The Heart.

:06:19
She was the first choice for this.
:06:23
Not only because of her
extraordinary beauty

:06:27
but also
:06:30
there's an un-Americanness
about her features and her body,

:06:36
which gave it an exotic appeal.
:06:51
This is at the old New Orleans airport.
:07:11
I liked Malcolm for this role
:07:14
simply because it's a very arch-role,
it's sort of preposterous.

:07:21
Even though he doesn't have
that classic Shakespearean training,

:07:26
he had done a lot of stage work
in Britain,

:07:29
and those Brits are very good at
:07:33
giving those phoney-baloney speeches.
:07:36
The Alec Guinnesses
and Anthony Hopkins

:07:40
have made quite a good living
being hired to distinguish...

:07:44
to give distinguished readings
of strange exposition.

:07:49
This is Ruby Dee.
:07:51
We just cut from the Esplanade
in New Orleans

:07:56
to the stage in Universal.
