I assume you mean Bacall.  Interesting that she got her big break at age 19. For a nice Jewish girl from New York, she cultivated quite an air of sophistication and mystery.  Certainly she was one of the class acts of Hollywood.  R.I.P.

I had hoped that I would not need to explain ...

She's with her first husband now.  Bogey got a nice quote from her too: "Except for my first husband, all others were mistakes in hindsight ...".

"And you swear to never tell no one that you're taller than me?!!!"

You didn't really.

A lovely lady who aged well and had a remarkable presence.

i disagree she was stuck in her husband's shadow. she did great on her own.

I also think she did great on her own.  She was one of the most important actresses of all time.
