Listed among them is a woman I think they just made movies around her great lines.
Him -"You know I'd like to take you away from all this."
Her -" All this? Ohh, I getcha. And for a long time I was ashamed at the way I live."
Him-" You mean to say you've been reformed?"
Her -"No. I got over being ashamed."
And you wanna talk real?
She lived the life behind the scenes much as she lived on screen, Had an.. appetite shall we say for body builder types and remained "active" in the most impure sense well into her senior years with men sometimes 30+ years her junior.
Any reading into her life is usually interesting an amusing at worst. She's known to have said that Marilyn Monroe was nothing more then a "cheap imitation of" her "the real thing".
Known for such comebacks and lines as
"Good women are no fun... The only good woman I can recall in history was Betsy Ross. And all she ever made was a flag."
"Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before."
"Good sex is like good bridge. If you don't have a good partner, you'd better have a good hand."
And the often used
"Is that a gun in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?"
She is the original celebrity diva. Everyone who has come since her has been a "cheap imitation of the real thing"
She Talked the talk and walked the walk. And in doing so she carried it off with a certain style and class that hasnt been seen since.
She is. The queen of innuendo. The original Diva the late great Mae West.
