...dabbled in dada in interbellum Paris by drawing a delicate mustache and goatee on a Mona Lisa reproduction. As a surrealist masquerading under the pseudonym of Rrose Selavy (c'est la vie), he exhibited his portrait on a perfume bottle, submitted a urinal titled Fountain to a 1917 salon, where it was hidden behind a screen...

...Newsman Chet Huntley and Actress Joan Crawford. Hedda Hopper was even more personal about it all, sent cards bearing her own portrait. Mother Jolie Gabor sent photographs of herself and her daughters, included a lengthy message: "Come and have a glass of champagne with me at my fabulous pearl salon . . . my charming girls will be more than happy to give you ideas on how to get or give a glamorous Christmas present from...

...escaped to London just before World War I, and, with the help of her gifted brothers, Osbert and Sacheverell, soon established a salon in her attic apartment.

While Tony skitters about, fighting the impulse to take his best friend in his arms and kiss him, Charlie wards off the advances of Pat Boone (sacred love) and Walter Matthau (profane).

...invariably ignited by Actress Bancroft, who could probably strike dramatic lightning from a recitation of tide tables. Having tea at the zoo, she quietly distills despair while a prurient cuckold (James Mason) spews ugly revelations about her husband and his wife. Cornered under a hair dryer at a beauty salon, she blanches, feeling her own anguish cruelly parodied in a chance conversation with a venomous, cast-off drudge. And her spectacular scenes with Finch, pitched against the din of a more or less anonymous army of progeny, are a litany of love, hate, lies, jealousy and excruciating domestic boredom...
