I'd much rather she was here in person, but there is still a positive force to come out of her death and that is having the gift of music that she gave. "
67 " It's the contemporary woman that movies don't know what to do with, other than bathe her in a bridal glow in romantic comedies where both the romance and the comedy are artificial sweeteners. "
