I’ll always be grateful for the things Natalie taught me.  I could talk to her about the nonsense and distortion about what it means to be a movie star.  She said, ‘No matter how silly it may seem, fans do have this feeling about you that you have to respect; but never let it overwhelm you.'  So when we would go out in public, we would be mobbed, an aspect of the business I had little patience for, and Natalie would tell me to smile, keep moving and don’t ever stop.
