In 1957 Anne tried for a church annulment and failed; Martin then got a divorce on the ground of mental cruelty. Anne no longer enjoyed the life of a Hollywood bachelor girl. "One can always be popular with the boys," she says, "but the rules are different in Hollywood than The Bronx. Out there you play for keeps...
