I did things like Shampoo and Heaven Can Wait. I don't know what those films were about. The women I played in them were not very empowered.

I had not starred in an independent film and it's about a woman who owned a hair salon.

I feel that film is inevitably the medium of the future. It has been for years, decades, but more so now than ever.

It's too bad about 'Dark of the Sun.' It was really about Tshombe. When I read the script, I thought it was going to be a political movie, and I thought we might even have a hassle. But the director simplified it to brutality and bad taste.

It just seemed to me to be a great story, set back in its time but something that seemed to have relevance for our time. Now that the film is coming out, it looks like we're back in another time where repression of expression is all the rage.

I dyed my hair blonde in that movie, so my head doesn't match my grill.

The film I think was a good film for what it was designed for. It was for kids. Unfortunately the critics slashed it before it even started but that is just the way the cookie crumbles.

That's why I had to leave Hair on Broadway, because I did it for about a year, and one night I was doing the show, and I realized, well, this is not real. I told the director. He says, man, it was a killer show tonight.

Film remains completely mystical and mysterious to me.
