It’s not an old movie if you haven’t seen it.
I fairly often have thought how lucky I was. I knew everybody because I was married to Bogie, and that 25-year difference was the most fantastic thing for me to have in my life.
No, I’m afraid they might slip and hit a nerve and I’d end up with one side of my face hanging down or something. I’ll just stick with this one for a while and take my chances. I’ll be brave.

I think I’m damn lucky. I’m lucky that my kids are all straight, that they haven’t ended up in jail, that they’re all worthwhile human beings, thank God. Their lives are happy; they have happy partners, wives, husbands.
