"I was probably 13 or so when James Dean got killed. I mean I didn't really know about him, just stuff we heard in England, but he's one guy I' picked up on. It's all publicity I suppose really, but with James Dean I really thought he was what he was, as well as being a film star.

It's all publicity I suppose really, but with James Dean I really thought he was what he was, as well as being a film star. I believe that what a person does: is the thing, not who they are or what they are. It's what they do and how they do it. He was incredible, James Dean. I mean he wiped the floor wifh everybody."
