I missed working with her in a scene. But MGM was a wonderful studio. Now, though it is awful. I tried to get in the front gate and it was locked. Finally I had to go around to the backdoor. Things have gone down hill there.” Normally unless her pictures appear on television on the Late, Late, Show, Almira doenn’t watch them. She played the part of a hag in “Rosemary’s Baby” who carried a cat around. The scene was almost a disaster for her. “That cat bit me, and here I am taking care of 11 others plus two who show up for dinner every night.” She isn’t knocking herself out to see “Rosemary’s Baby” but she is very anxious to see “ .. . tick . . . tick . . . tick ...” “That is going to be a wonderful picture,” she predicted. But as always, the only movie that matters to Almira is the next one. I just can’t remember most of the pictures I have been in. I used to keep lists, but it got to be too numerous so I dropped it.” Fame may not have smiled on Almira Sessions in the form of stardom, but she isn’t worried. “See this ring?” She asked holding up an antique diamond ring. “I bought it for $900 once and it is worth plenty now. But my hands are wrinkled and don’t look good anymore. Still I’ve got the ring and someone else has the hands - without a ring it’s better that way I feel.” “When I take a job, I never know if it will be the last one or not, but who cares, I’m working not living on relief, and that’s the way I want it.” And what is more amazing in an era of nudity, she doesn’t have to take her clothes off to win a part.
