Because Humphrey Bogart remains my favorite actor of his era it’s hard not to know of the great romance between Bogie and Bacall.
Her beauty was a breath of fresh air at the time of her debut as well as her commanding presence.
It’s also because of my love for all things Bogie that I kept tabs on her career as the years went by.
Another connection to the golden days of Hollywood and Bogart has been lost.
I love one of her great quotes in defending old films that went something like this…..”If you’ve never seen a movie before, than it’s new to you.”
I use this quote often when talking older films to people who normally wouldn’t give them a second look.

Great quote among many from a classy and cool lady.
She proved to be a tough survivor. Not just the wife of a revered icon.
