Farewel, phenomenal Bacall!!! I was 16 when I saw "The Fan" at a nearly empty theater, and I have loved it ever since then!!!

Michael Biehn is really young here and Miss Bacall is gorgeous! The song is beautiful!

One of the most hilarious, wrong, wrong, wrong musicals-made-for-a-movie of all time. I so wanted Biehn to walk out rolling his eyes. "Hmmm I've been obsessed with that?!?"

Rest In Peace Lauren Bacall. Condolences to her family, friends and fans. ♥ ♥ ♥

I love you now and forever in my heart Mrs Bacall.

2:11 - Maureen Stapleton's face DROPS when she hears Lauren's bum note. Priceless. Love it.

I can't believe the negative comments about this, true it's not a great film but the star is Lauren Bacall, a legend, show some respect. She just finished a Broadway show called Woman of the Year and for that she won her second Tony award

Bacall wasn't in Casablanca, but her husband Bogart starred in it. His leading lady was Ingrid Bergman. This movie would have worked had Bacall and Beihn switched roles.

+Tom Clark You've wasted a lo of your time here. writing negative comments. Since you have so much time on your hands, why don't you donate some of it to those less fortunate than you (who would include, in your opinion, EVERYONE). If you don't want to do that, why don't you just fuck off?

Actually my husband collects autographs from celebrities for our HRC gala every year, Ms Bacall sent an autograph every year praising our efforts in the community. Just another side of this lady.

I loved this movie, but this was the best part.

This is a great suspense/thriller both Balcall and Michael Biehn are great and most important I believe them both. A killer movie and a killer ending.

R.I.P. one of the last classic legendary lady of the screen, Lauren Bacall.

Michael Biehn is a handsome man. A talented actor with devils in his gaze.

RIP Betty

Although Miss Bacall disowned The Fan, I actually loved the movie.

That is awesome.

I'm sorry but if Michael Biehn were stalking me....I'd give him diamonds every single day!

Her outfit is a freakin Halston!!!!!!!!

MICHAEL BIEHN GRANDE ATOR - O MELHOR DESTE ELENCO

Just discovered this song today, and LOVE it!! I wonder if she got any fan letters about it?

Given all the talent, this could have been a much better film. Unfortunately it was a rush job, rushed, in order to cash in on the 80's "slasher" film craze. Bacall, who had recently wrapped up her stage show signed onto the film, thought of it as a straight up thriller, however, she herself later would disown the film due to it's cruelty and over the top violence.

Lauren is the last Hollywood greats

A much better movie than its given credit for ,Lauren Bacall A real Star ...I for one am glad they changed the ending from the book and Sally is strong at the end....

post the all filme. thaks

Forget hearts and diamonds, what she really needs is Autotune. This would make a great mash-up with the 'big number' from the stage musical in 'The Valley of the Dolls'-kzread.info/dash/bejne/daCYsZVuoaS4dpM.html

SPOILER ALERT! I read the book this film is based on- the book was great, the movie not so much. Unlike the film, in the book, the fan actually kills Sally Ross.

+David Horn I read the book, years ago. Instead of a linear narrative, it's a series of written communications, which makes it far more interesting than if it had been a straightforward, Patterson-like thriller. Shame on you for giving away the climax.

@@edwardjames50 Well, he DID warn us, but of course nobody can resist a spoiler alert. I saw the movie when it came out and read the book after, and I've mentally 'filmed' its ending in my mind. You'd think the burned body was his and it's all over, then as she's on stage you'd hear that last letter in voice over as the camera pans to him in the audience, standing with the audience to applaud and slowly...pulling out the gun, pointing it at Sally as she takes her bows, then cut to black as the gunshot blasts out. The End. Can I write movies or WHAT?

Sad news. Lauren Bacall died today at age 89, August 12, 2014

The song is good, the voice NO

After watching this, now I want the fan to cut her up.

Ms. Bacall wasn't a singer...and in the movie neither was her character...she mentioned being scared to do a musical.

Bacall was enough of a singer to do two long-running musicals on Broadway. But this was not her finest hour.

k8nairne ~ I have a big scoop for you. What you're referring to is a reverse shot, or "insert," and in all likelihood, Bacall wasn't even performing when that shot was made. For all we know, she could have been in her dressing room at the time, so your assumption is WAY off base.

@@edwardjames50 I've heard Dietrich recordings and that's a good point. Smoky, low voice with almost no range, but very expressive. I think the difference is Dietrich stayed within that limited range, whereas Bacall seems to be straining to do Broadway belting and can't. But I remember this sequence from when the movie was released in theaters and I loved it (although my friend winced and said "Oh, Lauren!" out loud at a particularly bum note)

What this chick really needs is talent and to stop smoking. This guy IS crazy if he wants this chick. She can't sing, she smokes (which ruins your singing voice), and she looks like a hag. He needs to set his standards higher.

This is really awful. It goes over as well as a fart in church. I can't believe the producers of this film thought it would fly. Smoking on stage....so tacky.
