Part of the fun of the Late, Late Show is watching the likes of Edward G. Robinson, Humphrey Bogart and James Cagney come on like double-barreled punks in their double-breasted suits. Even in as recent a film as The Yellow Rolls-Royce, one of the breakup scenes was the appearance of George C. Scott as a 1930s hood, all decked out in a rakish, broad-brimmed white Panama and a Raft-shouldered, double-breasted suit. But laugh softly and take a long second look.

"She's my wife, and nurse," Bogie said shortly before his death. "So she stays home. Maybe that's the way you tell the ladies from the broads in this town...
...released within the last year. "The paperback ones are written by hungry guys trying to get in on the madness and make a buck," she complains. "And the hard-covers aren't a hell of a lot better." The one she has hopes for was written by Old Bogart Buddy Joe Hyams. Due for publication in mid-'66, it will sport an introduction by Bacall herself...
