I Was Always Opinionated.

I Loved Acting, Which Was Never About Money, The Fame. It Was About A Search For Meaning. It Was Painful.

My Security Comes From My Senses, My Sensing The Direction I Should Go And Suddenly I Felt Out Of Tune, Out Of Step With What Other People Wanted Or What Other People Expected Of Me.

I Live Way Out In The Country, So There's Not A Lot Of People Around To Remind Me. And My Friends Don't Think Of Me As 'kim Novak' Anymore Anyway. It's Like They Forgot, Too. And So It's Nice.

So, Hitchcock Wouldn't Say Anything About My Work In The Movie But, On The Other Hand, He Wouldn't Complain, Either.

I Used Jimmy To Give Me What I Needed To Keep Going And To Know That I Was On The Right Path With It. I Thought I Saw Jimmy's Soul All The Time We Worked. He Never Covered His Soul And I Never Covered Mine. We Saw Into Each Other's Souls, Very Definitely.
