...Dirt, an upcoming FX show, you play a tabloid editor. Is this revenge against the gossip industry? It was inspired by an actual incident. When I was pregnant, I was driving, and paparazzi were tailgating me. I foolishly tried to outrun them. I was hormonal. [It made me think] there has got to be something we can do on the paparazzi...

...quite fat. When I was little, he told me he envied women. He said that if he could be pregnant, there would be a reason for the big belly, instead of just being fat. I wanted to make him godlike in the film--a symbol rather than a person. It was comical, but I thought it was also an appropriate way to depict...

...unspoken message of these films was that a woman, especially a good woman, has to settle. Compromise was the minor key in a movie's final fanfare. Allyson lost out on a few good roles: Royal Wedding with her idol Astaire (because she was pregnant with her and Powell's child Ricky), Johnny Belinda and All About Eve (because MGM wouldn't loan her out to other studios...
