“At first Newman had trouble with Taylor because their styles of acting were so different.  “He needed to rehearse and explore, she would just be doing nothing in rehearsals except saying the lines and walking along.  He’d go to Richard Brooks (director) and say, ‘What’s going to happen when we get to a shot?  She’s not doing anything.’ Brooks said, ‘Just a minute.’  He’d say ‘Action’ and Paul’s eyes fell out because she’d be there with a full performance, and he never knew where she found it.”
