\"LAUREN<\/a>It’s hard to believe that\u00a0actress Lauren Bacall<\/a>, who passed away in her native New York on Tuesday at the age of 89,\u00a0received but a single Academy Award nomination. What’s even more inconceivable is that it didn’t come until after she had marked her 50th anniversary in the movies.\u00a0From the time she made her film bow as a teenager in 1944, her sultry. hard-edged sensuality, smoky tones, and trademark pose that was dubbed “The Look” \u00a0made the actress an always-welcome presence on screen, stage and TV over more than seven decades.<\/p>\n

Born in the Bronx in September of 1924 to a salesman and a secretary, Betty Joan Perske had her sights set on acting by high school and enrolled in the American Academy of Dramtic Arts, getting her first off-Broadway and modeling opportunities by her late teens. A cover appearance on Harper’s Bazaar brought her to the attention of director Howard Hawks’s wife, who convinced her husband\u00a0to bring Bacall\u00a0out west for a screen test. The result was a new name (Lauren at Hawks’s suggestion; the surname adapted from\u00a0her mother’s Romanian family) and the female\u00a0lead in\u00a0Warner Bros.’ 1944\u00a0adaptation of Ernest\u00a0Hemingway’s To Have and Have Not<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The neophyte actress was partnered with the studio’s top male star, Humphrey Bogart. In her 1980 autobiography Lauren Bacall: By Myself, she recalled how nervous she was during the film’s production, particularly in a scene where Bogart tossed a matchbox to her. \u201cMy hand was shaking, my head was shaking, the cigarette was shaking, I was mortified,\u201d she wrote. \u201cThe harder I tried to stop, the more I shook. … I realized that one way to hold my trembling head still was to keep it down, chin low, almost to my chest, and eyes up at Bogart. It worked and turned out to be the beginning of The Look.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"TO<\/a>Despite her nerves,\u00a0the\u00a0chemistry between the pair was palpable, especially in the oft-quoted\u00a0scene where lounge singer Marie “Slim” Browning\u00a0(Bacall) tells fishing boat captain Harry “Steve” Morgan (Bogart) \u201cYou know you don\u2019t have to act with me, Steve. You don\u2019t have to say anything, and you don\u2019t have to do anything, not a thing. Oh, maybe just whistle. You know how to whistle, don\u2019t you, Steve? You just put your lips together\u2026and blow.\u201d That on-screen attraction soon carried through behind the camera, despite the duo’s 25-year age difference and Bogart’s final attempts to save his crumbling third marriage, and he and Bacall wed in May of 1945.<\/p>\n

\"BIG<\/a>Her sophomore picture with Warners, the 1945 espionage tale Confidential Agent<\/a> with Charles Boyer, was not a success, but she returned to form when she and Bogie re-teamed for a trio of classic noir-flavored thrillers: The Big Sleep<\/a> (1946), Dark Passage<\/a> (1947) and Key Largo<\/a> (1948). The duo also worked together alongside like-minded Hollywood notables–John Huston, Danny Kaye, Gene Kelly and Jayne Wyatt, among others–to form the Committee for the First Amendment, which spoke out against the House Un-American Activities Committee’s investigation of the motion picture industry, although they would later call a 1947 Washington visit\u00a0“ill-advised.”<\/p>\n

When her husband began working for other studios, Bacall stayed at Warner Bros. to star alongside Kirk Douglas and Gary Cooper, respectively, for the 1950 dramas Young Man with a Horn<\/a> and Bright Leaf<\/a>. The actress went to 20th Century-Fox–and shifted from serious to lighthearted fare–when she joined Marilyn Monroe and Betty Grable as a trio of husband-seeking Manhattanites in 1953’s How to Marry a Millionaire<\/a> (where her character confesses \u201cI’ve always liked older men. Look at that old fellow, what’s-his-name, in The African Queen\u2026absolutely crazy about him.”).<\/p>\n

\"WRITTEN<\/a>Other key ’50s performances included the boardroom\/bedroom drama Woman’s World<\/a> (1954), co-starring June Allyson, Fred MacMurray and Clifton Webb; the medical soaper The Cobweb<\/a> (1955), with Boyer and Richard Widmark; alongside John Wayne for Blood Alley<\/a> (also ’55); Douglas Sirk’s Written on the Wind<\/a> (1956), with Rock Hudson; and opposite Gregory Peck for Designing Woman (1957). During this time Bacall also managed to work with Bogart in a 1951-52\u00a0radio drama, Bold Venture, and a 1955 TV staging of The Petrified Forest. Bogart’s health, however, was already in decline, and he passed away from cancer of the esophagus in early 1957.<\/p>\n

In the years after Bogart’s death, Bacall would begin spending more time in New York (moving into the famed Dakota apartment building, where she lived until her death)\u00a0and on Broadway. Among her stage work were roles in Goodbye Charlie, Cactus Flower, Applause (the musical based on All About Eve) and Woman of the Year, and she earned Tony Awards for her performances in the last two. Following a brief romance with longtime friend Frank Sinatra, she would marry actor Jason Robards in 1961, a union that lasted nearly nine years and produced one son, actor Sam Robards (she had a son and a\u00a0daughter during her marriage to Bogart).<\/p>\n

\"BACALL,<\/a>Bacall didn’t totally abandon Hollywood, however; she appeared with Paul Newman in Harper<\/a> (1966); was one of the murder suspects in the all-star Agatha Christie adaptation Murder on the Orient Express<\/a> (1974); reunited with Blood Alley co-star Wayne for the Duke’s final film, The Shootist<\/a>\u00a0(1976); and\u00a0played\u00a0an actress who becomes a stalker’s\u00a0obsession in the suspenser The Fan (1981). Supporting roles in such films as Misery<\/a> (1990), Robert Altman’s Pr\u00eat-\u00e0-Porter (1994) and My Fellow Americans<\/a> (1996)–plus frequent TV turns (including commercials using her unmistakable voice) and talk show appearances–kept her in the public eye. It was her\u00a0performance as college professor Barbara Streisand’s mother in 1996’s The Mirror Has Two Faces<\/a>, however, that would earn Bacall her one and only Academy Award nomination, for Best Supporting Actress (she would ultimately lose to The English Patient’s Juliette Binoche).<\/p>\n

Still working well into her 70s and 80s, Bacall’s 21st-century resum\u00e9 boasted such diverse work as roles in Danish director Lars Von\u00a0Trier’s Dogville <\/a>(2003) and Manderlay<\/a> (2005);\u00a0the romance dramas Birth<\/a>\u00a0(2004) and These Foolish Things<\/a> (2006);\u00a0\u00a0voice work in two animated features, Hayao Miyazaki’s Howl’s Moving Castle<\/a>\u00a0(2004) and Ernest & Celestine<\/a> (2012)\u00a0from France; and a cameo as herself, being mugged, in a 2006\u00a0episode of The Sporanos.\u00a0As she said in a 1996 interview, \u201cYou just learn to cope with whatever you have to cope with. I spent my childhood in New York, riding on subways and buses. And you know what you learn if you\u2019re a New Yorker? The world doesn\u2019t owe you a damn thing.\u201d Movie fans everywhere\u00a0would certainly disagree with the outspoken actress on that last statement; the world owes Lauren Bacall a great deal for bringing her distinctive beauty and style to the screen\u00a0in so many classic performances.<\/p>\n
