This interview with Lauren Bacall has a rather bracing take on the idea of a nostalgic visit to the golden days of Hollywood. (Just don’t take too long to open her chocolates…..)
Vanity Fair interview with Lauren Bacall
“Bacall continues, “I don’t think anybody that has a brain can really be happy. What is there really to be happy about? You tell me. If you’re a thinking human being, there’s no way to divorce yourself from the world.””
The interview has some interesting insights into the sting of nostalgia – and what was or wasn’t said in the past.
