I want a woman like Lauren Bacall
Old and wrinkled but knows it all
Got all the little tricks that'll make me cream
That's the girl o' my dreams

RIP!

New York Times

A very beautiful, talented, and classy lady. She had it all along with the love of her life Humphrey Bogart. RIP.

My all time favorite actress....I have adored her since I was a little girl. Next to my mother I thought she was the most beautiful lady in the whole world.




I always admired her unique style, exquisite beauty and her ability to be a lady and a broad at the same time. Most women cannot pull that off.

RIP, Slim....

Yep.

I'll check around for the PBS Charlie Rose Show. Mr. Rose's interviewed Ms. Bacall half a dozen times during the course of her life. Mr. Rose is pretty good at reairing interviews of people he's had on his show, after people they've passed.

For those who don't know, she "discovered" Kirk Douglas and gave him his break in films.

These are my favorite Lauren Becall movies.

Designing Woman

Written In The Wind (classic melo-drama)

To Have And Have Not

Sex And the Single Girl

Harper

To Have And Have Not is my favorite with Key Largo being a close second.

Aww, wow. Two of my all-time favorite people...gone in just two days. My heart is so heavy right now.

The first movie I saw Lauren Bacall in was "How To Marry A Millionaire" with Marilyn Monroe and Betty Grable and I was instantly hooked and wanted more. Her presence was quite regal and very streetwise, which I adored about her but always elegant and classy...something that is sorely missing in today's Hollywood and with her passing, it can certainly be said, it's an end of an era.

Rest Well and In Love Ms. Bacall, I'm sure Bogey's very happy to see you again.

jesus, what a couple of days...

if I'm not mistaken, she was the very last legend still alive of the Old Hollywood ('30s-'50s)

good actress, bigger star and above all a gorgeous woman with exotic features

---

and I swear I was thinking about her a couple of days ago, same happened with Robin Williams; this stuff happens to me continuosly...it's so common that I've grown to accept it as somewthing normal, and I'm sure millions of people out there have this very same experience as well...

Nope, Kirk Douglas is still with us at age 97.

Kirk Douglas will reach age 100, just like the late George Burns.

Just wait.

so be it; Spartacus will be the last one to leave us

Bold, Straight To The Point & Classy. RIP

So sad, may her soul rest in peace. So sultry!

And then there were two (from Hollywood's golden age): Olivia de Havilland (98) and Maureen O'Hara (94).

^didn't know those two dames are still alive, God bless them

I started to post Madonna's vogue video because Lauren Bacall is the last to pass of the stars mentioned in the 1990 video. Only 7 of the 16 (?) had passed at the time.
