Bacall has a Norma Desmond moment

"...GMTV's Jenni Falconer asked Bacall a seemingly innocuous question. "And now you've worked alongside another screen legend, Nicole Kidman ... " she began. Interrupting her in mid-sentence, Bacall snapped: "She's not a legend. She's a beginner. What is this 'legend?' She can't be a legend at whatever age she is. She can't be a legend - you have to be older."
Meow! Fancy-Feast anyone?

Posted: 9/9/04 at 1:39amI agree. Doesn't legendary status come with hindsight? Legends are stories passed on from one generation to the next, or things that are remarkable enough to be remembered past their own generations. You can't call Nicole Kidman a "legend" yet. You can call her talented, but not a legend.

Posted: 9/9/04 at 8:57amI love how this is being blown out of proportion now, as I am reading about Lauren Bacall has launched a blistering attack on Nicole Kidman. Um, no. She just pointed out a fact.
re: Bacall has a Norma Desmond moment#6
Posted: 9/9/04 at 9:12amIt's the way she says things. She has a very condescending, nasty way about her. I agree with her, but the reason things she says are blown out of proportion is because she states them with disproportionate negativity.

Poor Norma. I just saw her new commercial for "Tuesday Mornings" and thehy just SCREAM screen legend.
If only the Great Kate would have just hung in there a little while longer to be the spokeswoman for Dollar General.

What becomes a legend most?
Cheap, tacky commercials for discount stores, of course. You tell 'em, Bacall!!
re: Bacall has a Norma Desmond moment#12
Posted: 9/9/04 at 9:33amI can't even imagine where to begin...Nicole Kidman a Legend? Not on your life....
re: Bacall has a Norma Desmond moment#13
Posted: 9/9/04 at 9:34amWell, maybe one day, eventually, if she plans her career right. But she won't be remembered for Days Of Thunder, that's for sure.

Posted: 9/9/04 at 9:36amWe are all in agreement there, Redhot. This thread has turned into a discussion of what a beyatch Bacall is.

re: Bacall has a Norma Desmond moment#18
Posted: 9/9/04 at 9:41amHas anybody seen her in the Tuesday Morning (a store) commercials with Jonathan Winters as her chauffeur? Apparantly the LEGAND has no problem doing schlocky commercials.
