00:00Did you learn any lessons from your relationship with Fosse?
00:02How do you feel like that interacted with your career?
00:04Well, Fosse, bless his heart, I think he, maybe two people,
00:10maybe Pauline Kael and Bob Fosse saw something in that performance
00:14that they thought was worthwhile.
00:18When he was writing all that jazz, he created that part specifically for me,
00:24and he fought for me to do it.
00:25It was kind of symbolic, that role, the angel of death.
00:30That began to turn things around for me, and I love Bob.
00:34I mean, we were great friends.
00:36I sometimes watch, when it's on TV or something,
00:39I'll watch part of all that jazz and realize what a fucking genius he was,
00:45what he was doing.
00:46It was extraordinary.
