I was watching Parky tonight (Michael Parkinson, the worlds best interviewer) and he had Lauren Bacall on, she made him blush when she flirted with him, she is what i would call a true STAR and even a legend of hollywood, she mentioned all these names, names to conjure with, names like Bogart, and Katherine Hepburn, Bette Davis, Fred Astaire, REAL stars, proper stars.
The word STAR is bandied around FAR to often these days, I would go so far as to say there are very few REAL stars in hollywood these days, it seems that you only have to make one movie that does reasonably well and all of a sudden you're a star, thats bullshit, theres a lot more to being a star than acting in a few movies, real stars have a presence that extends beyond their movies...
And there is not many of those anymore.
