But something happened then, I think, that diminished his life. And he started having heart trouble and he started having all kinds of things. And he was always ill. He did character acting in movies. He did a movie with Marilyn Monroe. And I remember wanting to see that when I was a kid. And he kind of made a living, but he was always ill.

I think it's your relationship to your parents that make you have relationships with other people or something like that. But it's been a confusing mess, believe me, that end of it. But I go on.
