Line 1: {{~~work~~creator}} [[File:bacall6_9502.jpg\|frame]] {{quote\|''You know how to whistle don't you, Steve? You just put your lips together... and blow.''\|'''"Slim"''' (Lauren Bacall) in ''To Have and Have Not''}} Lauren Bacall was one of the best, sexiest and sexiest-voiced actresses of 1940s and '50s Hollywood. Known for her range as an actress, she could do everything from serious, [[Film Noir]] dramatic roles like ''[[The Big Sleep (~~Film~~film)\|The Big Sleep]]'' to ridiculous comedies of errors like 1953's ''[[How to Marry Aa Millionaire]]'' (with [[Betty Grable]] and [[Marilyn Monroe]]). Born Betty Joan Perske in 1924, she had a career that is a real example of [[Follow Your Dreams]]: after her parents separated, her mother encouraged the young Betty to make it big in show business. After a [[Stage Names\|name change]] and [[Dye Hard\|hair coloring]] (the name "Perske" sounded too Jewish, apparently), she did. Bacall appeared in four movies with [[Humphrey Bogart]], whom she married [[May-December Romance\|despite being over 20 years younger than him]]. Line 12: She often got [[Tsundere]]-type roles, proof that the trope is older than anime. Incidentally, Bacall is a first cousin of Shimon Peres, [[~~Useful Notes/Israel\|~~Israel]]'s current president and former prime minister, who won the [[Nobel Prize\|Nobel Peace Prize]] with Rabin and Arafat for trying to fix the [[Arab -Israeli Conflict]]. Peres was born Szymon Perski. One wonders what their family reunions (if any) are like. ~~=== She fits these tropes: ===~~ {{creatortropes}} * [[Dye Hard]]: Naturally a brunette, she dyed her hair red as a career move, and stuck with it. * [[Green Eyes]]: ''Extremely'' bright ones.
