Jamie Lee Curtis

She was hanging out in Pontiac, Illinois, while filming Grandview U.S.A. Her publicist filtered all my questions. I think she resented it as she also may have resented trying to pretend she was thrilled to be living in the middle of Illinois for a month or so. She bought a house while she was there. Most of the actors and cast did. We had coffee and pie at the diner. She was unenthused, even sleepy. I always liked her, her toughness, her frankness. But I almost felt sorry for her, being so sheltered from direct contact with her surroundings or from me. I think we were both glad when it was over. Her publicist was a jerk.
