00:12Undismissable.
00:13Complicated.
00:14This is the worst seat in the world.
00:17She's difficult, but caring.
00:20Before you make judgments, you have to look deeper.
00:24You see a Faye Dunaway movie and you don't see Faye Dunaway.
00:29You see Bonnie Parker, Laura Mars, Joan Crawford.
00:32Faye is the persona and Dorothy Faye is that little girl from the South.
00:37The acting was a way to escape from my family experience, which was painful.
00:42My mom would keep her emotions inside and then let it out.
00:46I was very depressed, moody, and I'm still responsible for my actions.
00:51I came to understand the reason.
00:53Use those feelings.
00:54They're who you are.
00:55They make you strong.
00:56They don't make you weak.

01:21shot of all time.
01:22I remember the moment.
01:23It was an amazing night.
01:26She's a legend, a force of nature.
01:28Her story is tremendously relevant.
01:32Life is hills and valleys.
01:33I got an idea in my mind and I was going to try to achieve it.
01:37I'm Faye Dunaway.
01:38That's who I am.
