Quiz

  • Steve McQueen named her as the best actress he ever worked with.
  • Despite her clashes with Roman Polanski, she referred to Chinatown (1974) as "possibly the best film I ever made".
  • Her performance as Bonnie Parker in Gangster Story (1967) is ranked #34 on Premiere magazine's 100 Greatest Movie Characters of All Time.
  • Bette Davis described Dunaway as the worst person she had ever worked with in an interview with Johnny Carson in 1988, calling her "totally impossible", "uncooperative", and "very unprofessional". Dunaway denied Davis' claims in her autobiography, writing "Watching her, all I could think of was that she seemed like someone caught in a death throe, a final scream against a fate over which no one has control. I was just the target of her blind rage at the one sin Hollywood never forgives in its leading ladies: growing old.".
  • Her first husband, Peter Wolf, was the lead singer of the rock band J. Geils.

Citazioni

  • I really hate talking about Mammina cara (1981)! It is like an obsession with people! Why do people need to focus so much on one film I made over 20 years ago? It was not a great time in my life and the film was not an experience I want to think about. Period!
  • The rhythms of being an actress are by definition intensity and then letting out. It's like a heartbeat.
  • [on signing a six-picture deal with Otto Preminger that she later got out of] As much as it cost me to get out of the deal with Otto, if I'd had to do those movies with him, then I wouldn't have done Gangster Story (1967), or Il caso Thomas Crown (1968), or any of the movies I was suddenly in a position to choose to do. Beyond the movies I might have missed, it would have been a kind of Chinese water torture to have been stuck in five more terrible movies. It's impossible to assess the damage that might have done to me that early on in my career.
  • [on playing an alcoholic in Barfly - Moscone da bar (1987)] This character, who has given over her days and nights to a bottle, is my way back to the light. This is a role that I care deeply about. I haven't felt this passion for a character since Quinto potere (1976). I saw the promise of a comeback for me in the deglamorized face of Wanda, a woman of sweet vulnerability.
  • [on Supergirl - La ragazza d'acciaio (1984)] The film was really just a send-up, a spoof, and I had a lot of fun with Selena. But every time I tried to do something funny, [director Jeannot Szwarc] wouldn't let me. He said, "you have to be the straight person". I always wanted to do comedy but it's daunting when you've not done it before.
