Three girls about town and their pal [if not gay best friend] out having cocktails, in January 1959. I love this photo of Vivien Leigh, Kay Kendall, Lauren Bacall and Noel Coward - 4 quintessential showpeople - stepping out in '59. Kay died later that year, Bacall [the woman who knew everyone] is still with us, 50 years later, in her 80s. More on Kay later ... (photo from 'The Brief Madcap Life of Kay Kendall' by Eve Golden and Kay's sister Kim Kendall, Kentucky Press.] 2,000 POSTS DONE!, so I am posting less frequently, but will still be adding news, comments and photos.. As archived, its a ramble through my movie watching, music and old magazine store and discussing People We Like [Loren, Monroe, Vitti, Romy Schneider, Lee Remick, Kay Kendall, Anouk & Dirk Bogarde, Delon, Belmondo, Jean Sorel, Belinda Lee; + Antonioni, Hitchcock, Wilder, Minnelli, Cukor, Joni Mitchell, David Hockney etc].
