1. – Cybill Shepherd, Taxi Driver, 1976. The veteran San Francisco actress – 70 roles in 30 years, including Katharine Heigl’s mother in Knocked Up, 2007 – was interviewed for the role of Betsy. Martin Scorsese picked Cybill, said producer Julia Phillips, “for her big ass, a retro Italian gesture… shot her ass at it widest point, not flattering from a Vogue point of view.” Phillips begged him to cut it. But no… “I’m Italian and I love it.”
