“One of the stories is that two girls from Texas [Miss Duvall and Miss Spacek] meet in Palm Springs and undergo a metamorphosis. She's a product of everything she watches and she reads, such as her favorite magazines—McCall's, Redbook and Apartment Life. It's really sort of a mundane existence until Pinky [Miss Spaeel() comes along and answers her ad for a roommate.”And the other levels? “I put so much of myself into Millie, especially the parts I don't care to see, all the vanities and the mundane things, such as Millie's fondness for tuna‐melt sandwiches, and Scrabble, and the color yellow. She lives in a fantasy, writing in her diary things that don't really happen to her, and totally ignoring the truth—that she really isn't popular.”
