Psycho (1960) gave me very wrinkled skin. I was in that shower for seven days - 70 setups. At least, he [Alfred Hitchcock] made sure the water was warm.

For years, directors and producers came up to me and said they`d wanted me for a role, but [Alfred Hitchcock] wouldn`t allow it. The worst was when I found out that Francois Truffaut had wanted to cast me. I`d never heard a word about it. That one hurt.
