She regarded Rare Breed as a total flop and only praised Brian Keith who also starred in the movie.
I also wasn't enthused about that movie. It wasn't one of Jimmy's best, for sure.
What you guys are saying, and apparently what Maureen thought, was that Jimmy was narcissistic and selfish. Which is certainly at odds with his image in America. According to everything I've ever read or heard, he was just about as popular as the Duke with American film goers. Speaking for myself, I really did like him.
