There’s a great Q&A with Teri Garr up over at The Onion, in which the well-known character actress doesn’t so much wax poetic…rather, she waxes snark. Here are a few of my favorite tidbits:
On Mr. Mom:
It seemed like the people that made that movie didn’t know anything about life. They hadn’t been in a supermarket in, like, 10 years. So it was amazing that we came out with anything at all. I shouldn’t say that, God!
On Sydney Pollack:
He just wanted the beautiful, blond, cute, shiksa girls to be nice and shut the fuck up! [Laughs.] God, I’m bad. But that’s what he wanted. And that’s what the world wants, I think. I’m bitter. Bitter!
On Cher:
She was sort of a tootsie. But she was funny and sort of logical and nice. I like Cher. I still see her once in a while. I see her. I don’t recognize her, but I see her.
