Was considered for the title role in
Lolita.

She was director
Roman Polanski's first choice for the title role in
Rosemary's Baby because he thought her pure, American looks would contrast well with the film's dark undertones. The studio preferred
Mia Farrow, however, who had become a star on the enormously popular night-time soap opera
Peyton Place. A few years later, Polanski wanted her to star in his film version of _"Macbeth" (1971)_. She lost the part when she refused to do a nude sleepwalking scene. The role was eventually played by
Francesca Annis.
