    I think the point is that it is better to age gracefully and naturally than it is to fight age and end up looking like a mannequin.

    no offense intended. Bad picture though.

    The one in the lower right made jokes about John Lennon right after he was shot. I know who the bitch is.

    you need an earlier picture of Joan Rivers. the one on the left, she’s already had work. Are they the same age in the “after” shots? I’ll take the Joan Rivers path.

    The eyes are not the same. Bacall’s are confident and wise, Rivers are indecisive and lack confidence. Bacall’s been there done that and honest.

    Just to be clear, when I said I know who the bitch is, I was talking about Rivers. Should have worded that differently.
    I’ve seen all of Lauren Bacall’s movies and Bogie’s too. Never watched Joan for more than two seconds.
    Did my homework long ago.

    Upholstering your face in Naugahyde doesn’t make you look younger. And Lauren Bacall’s nose is still better looking than Joan River’s.

    True, but as recently as a 2005 interview with Larry King she described herself as “anti-Republican… A liberal. The L-word.” She went on to say that “being a liberal is the best thing on earth you can be. You are welcoming to everyone when you’re a liberal. You do not have a small mind.”

    By the time she was 30, Bacall’s looks were pretty much gone. Too much booze and cigarettes. I can see why Bogie went apeshit over her when she was 18, though.

    Rivers is just tacky. Makes her living by being brassy, big mouthed and obnoxious, kinda like your Aunt Sadie at your Bar Mitzvah.

    Ok, so the point is – there is no point.

    I think this is how our usurper-in-chief got elected in 2008. People saw in him what they wanted to see, just as peole here are reading into these two contrasting actresses and coming to their own conclusions about what the point is.

    Based on the eyes,

    Bacall’s eyes are dead, cold, joyless and empty, probably from years of embracing leftist views.

    The eyes they say, are the windows to the soul. I see an empty soul in hers.

    Rivers, has life in hers.

    Those that submit to plastics all eventually end up looking like Rivers….. and join “The Sisterhood of the Duckface Pre-Cadavers”….not that there’s anything wrong with that if that’s what you’re going for. Bacall is pure aged class, comfortable in her own weathered skin. Kudos to her for not following the Hollyweird crowd to the surgeons office.

    Frankly, both of them have gone farther than necessary. If Bacall had stopped smoking and drinking and taken a little better care of herself, she probably wouldn’t look quite that bad. And the over applied makeup doesn’t help either.
    As for Joan, she just took it too far. But I think once you start on that realigning of the face, you have to keep on or it really makes you look horrible. Pity for both of them. It isn’t fun for women when they begin aging. Best to just stay away from the sun and cameras.

    Lots of good lines, here.

    I don’t find the botox route an attractive one, but people make choices. Sneer if you will…

    I like *both* Joan Rivers and Lauren Bacall.

    …Lady in Red

    PS: One of these decades, I might take up smoking again. Or, maybe, get one of those electronic cigs (sans nicotine), for the effect of the water vapor wafting across the room…. Like long leather gloves and seamed stockings, it’s a look. ….smile…. Bacall did it well.

    “Gulp.”

    Ms. B, i’d bet pretty heavily that Ms. Bacall gulped quite a few whiskeys and smoked out a few hundred pounds of cigarettes.
