[on her film debut in The Last Picture Show (1971) and her romance with its director. Peter Bogdanovich] When a film wraps, the actors often like to keep some of their props or wardrobe as mementos. I wanted the heart-shaped locket and brown and white saddle shoes that Jacy wore, but his wife Polly [Polly Platt] was in charge of costumes and wouldn’t give them to me. I guess she figured I had enough of a souvenir: her husband.

I had the serendipity of modeling during a temporary interlude between Twiggy and Kate Moss, when it was actually okay for women to look as if we ate and enjoyed life.

I never wanted to be Jane. I always wanted to be Tarzan. I didn’t want to vacuum the tree house. I wanted to swing from the vines.
