Description
Actress Jacqueline Bisset is interviewed about her film, Class Struggle in Beverly Hills. She discusses the outrageous sensibilities of director Paul Bartel, and the sometimes shocking, hilarious off-the-wall flavour of the film, comparing it to some moments from the film, Eating Raoul. Although her agent discouraged her from taking the role, she had been longing to do some comedy and likes the film more, the more she sees it. She also discusses American familiarity while shooting in the USA. Interview by Gill Pyrah for Art Beat.
