I have emotional strings that tie me to Europe.
Jacqueline Bisset -
I was never any good in the school theatrical productions. I always got a role like the March Hare.

-
At the time, 1980, people regarded actresses involved with production with a certain amount of fear, resentment and anger.
Jacqueline Bisset -
What I realized on the 'Grasshopper' was that I wasn't sure that I liked being in every shot. It wasn't fun.
Jacqueline Bisset -
I want to keep my attractiveness as long as I can. It has to do with vitality and energy and interest.
Jacqueline Bisset -
This film business, perhaps more so in America than in Europe, has always been about young sexuality. It's not true of theatre, but in America, film audiences are young. It's not an intellectual cinema in America.
Jacqueline Bisset -
Some people have said that I haven't got the parts I should've got because of the way I look.
Jacqueline Bisset -
I think I am an adult.

-
Sometimes you like the personal adventure implicit in the making of a film, and sometimes you like your part in a film, and sometimes you like the final result.
Jacqueline Bisset -
I work very hard at relationships. I've done the thing of being home. I worked all day and came home and did all the stuff at home that a woman is supposed to do, the cooking and the entertaining. I'm a perfectionist, and, besides, I loved all those things.
Jacqueline Bisset -
I have an intense obsession with making films. I not only love to make films, I perhaps need to make films.
Jacqueline Bisset -
When I am working on a movie, all I want to talk about is the movie. All I want to be with are the movie people. It's like a clan. If I'm asked to people's houses for dinner, I hate to go, because they'll talk about other things.
Jacqueline Bisset -
When you share work, and you have the opportunity of seeing people you like doing what they do best, and you also interchange socially with them, it's very addictive.
Jacqueline Bisset -
At first I was always cast as the girlfriend. It was a long time before I got to play characters who were people.
Jacqueline Bisset
-
I always had cats and animals, so children were never really in my thoughts.
Jacqueline Bisset -
I had no aspirations to be part of American cinema... I was really a Europe-based person, and those were the films I was inspired by.
Jacqueline Bisset -
Not everyone likes watching rushes, but it makes me work harder, and I don't feel I am watching myself, but watching the progression of the character.
Jacqueline Bisset -
I'm a perfectionist. I need to be needed. I need to do things for a man. But I don't need to do them as much, these days.
Jacqueline Bisset -
I have watched people who have nothing to do with the film business, but who have become part of the circle for a short period of time. They can be truly devastated when the film wraps and people leave.
Jacqueline Bisset -
Your voice is your tool and represents you. It's very important to have a good voice where you can be understood.

-
A mode of conduct, a standard of courage, discipline, fortitude and integrity can do a great deal to make a woman beautiful.
Jacqueline Bisset -
I'm either offered window-dressing parts in large movies or little art films no one ever sees. People think the movies I end up doing are my real choices. I do the best things I'm offered.
Jacqueline Bisset -
I grew up in a small town about 40 miles outside London, but it was a fairly cosmopolitan household.
Jacqueline Bisset -
We all lose our looks eventually. Better develop your character and interest in life.
