Joyce Carol Oates Zitate

I wrote a novel called 'Blonde,' which is about Norma Jean Baker, who becomes Marilyn Monroe, which I called a fictitious biography. That uses the material as if it were myth - that Marilyn Monroe is like this mythical figure in our culture.

Ich schrieb einen Roman namens 'Blonde', in dem es um Norma Jean Baker geht, die zu Marilyn Monroe wird, die ich als fiktive Biographie bezeichnete. Das verwendet das Material als wäre es ein Mythos - dass Marilyn Monroe wie diese mythische Figur in unserer Kultur ist.

I wouldn't say no to becoming a Bond girl. Making it in Hollywood has been my dream ever since I was little, watching Marilyn Monroe movies. To star in a Bond movie would be bliss on a stick.

My all-time favourite political promise - more a boast than a promise, really - came from former Montreal mayor Jean Drapeau, who said in the lead-up to the 1976 Olympics, 'The Olympics can no more lose money than a man can have a baby.'

When the script was written, it was sent to me with asterisks marking where he felt a song would be appropriate. Before the film was shot, the score was written. I made a demo of it, so they lived with the music as they were making the film.
