Short, in Ms. Hepburn's distinctive voice. Very funny and revealing of what goes on in the creation of what you see on screen. The subtitle is overdramatic. She never seems close to losing her mind. Frustrated with Mr. Huston, the director, at first, but leaves on with the impression she really enjoyed the whole process and obviously became good friends with the director over the course of making the picture.
Enjoyable, with lots of wonderful pictures.
