This is how to interview someone. Allowing them to talk with a few questions thrown in to keep the interviewee relaxed.

Tony Curtis came to Baltimore's Lyric Theatre to appear in a musical version of Some Like it Hot as the Joey Brown character. After the play, Tony Curtis graciously came out of the theatre and took the time to take pictures with us. He even put his arm over my shoulder as my photo with him was taken. The warmth and humanity that he displayed was amazing. Thank you Mr. Curtis. You gave me an unforgettable experience. Your gesture meant alot. I am so sorry that he is gone. AL

Michael Smith He lied a lot. In all other interviews that involved the fabulous MM, all he does is bash the woman 24/7. Jack Lemmon was a gentleman he never uttered one bad word against MM, ever but this douche sure did. He and his first wife, Janet Leigh, even said he was like that. He had it all set up fooling around on this beauty. He divorced her to marry this young gal who at the young age of 17 had his baby, Christine something. He took the child away from her, claiming she was a unfit mother, which she was not. Now he does the nightly tour, again bashing MM and all the other women he has slept with. He could not have been great in be no-one of those women stayed with him. Nice wig Tony!

Sadly Curtis rewrote his will only 4 months before his death leaving everything to his last wife and leaving nothing to his children, who were originally in his will. Many including his kids (exception of Jamie Lee Curtis) believe his final wife, Jill Vandenberg Curtis pressured Curtis to rewrite his will in his final few months while sick at home suffering from Chronic obstructive lung disease (COLD).

I don't know why Curtis questioned his motives as to why he married at a young age. He knew exactly why he married young; he talked about it in his autobiography. He said Janet Leigh was an already established star. In an attempt to gain more publicity and exposure, he hooked up with Janet. He claimed they were Hollywood's first "power-couple." He said he thought their relationship was a mutually beneficial arrangement. I guess he was too ashamed to admit his duplicitous thought process during this interview.

Chloe wilson agreed on all counts. LOL but to be honest, i don't get how him saying "she was hard to work with" translates into him calling her slut. An actor being difficult to work with (or actress as the case may be) can mean them being picky, bitchy, aloof, etc. and not so much slutty. LOL
