"Peter Bogdanovich: "[Cher] doesn't like men. That's why she's named Cher: She dropped her father's name ... She can't act. She won Best Actress at Cannes because I shot her very well. And she can't sustain a scene ... So I shot a lot of close-ups of her because she's very good in close-ups. Her eyes have the sadness of the world. You get to know her, you find out it's self-pity, but still, it translates well in movies. I shot more close-ups of her than I think in any picture I ever made ... Cher doesn't like me ... because I didn't like her. She was always looking like someone was cheating her ... But finally, after about seven weeks of this, we started getting to like each other ... and then when I sued the studio, she sided with the studio, of course. That was that.""
