Lauren Bacall

Philip Marlowe: How'd you happen to pick out this place?
Vivian Rutledge: Maybe I wanted to hold your hand.
Philip Marlowe: Oh, that can be arranged.
--The Big Sleep

Lauren Bacall passed away yesterday at age 89. Sultry and cool, Bacall made memorable moments on film--many of them with husband Humphrey Bogart.


Fortunately for us, those performances live on. RIP Betty.

I called my business manager in California and said, 'Sell all of my stock' - what little of it I had - and it's the only smart financial move I ever made.

I used to tremble from nerves so badly that the only way I could hold my head steady was to lower my chin practically to my chest and look up at Bogie. That was the beginning of The Look.
