Noting happened. This was an era where only the best of the best got noticed outside their home town. The entertainment industry (and indeed, basically everything you saw in media at all) was absolutely minuscule by comparison to today, if you *weren't* incredible, you simply wouldn't be known more than an hour from where you lived, and certainly wouldn't be remembered. The media infrastructure just didn't exist then that does today. The Internet simply showed that most Americans (like literally any group of people) are incredibly average, and will happily watch other people being equally average.

Vincent even mentions that time they worked together. So her saying they never worked together is in itself sort of a roast.

That's got to be one of the best damn roasts I've ever seen. Though I have to say that Dean Martin's snide comment at the end killed me. "Vincent almost didn't make it here tonight. His hearse broke down on the freeway." Love it.

The stars of yesteryear had distinctive voices. They gave many impressionists lucrative livelihoods. Nowadays there are no impressionists because all "stars" sound the same.

Hard not to be sad that this caliber and honorable class of celebrity is no longer available to us. Instead we get rude crude and self imposed gods of all things social.

There's a nice little story about BD. While she was working on a film a British actor who admired her fiestyness heard that she liked to do puzzles. He presented her with a round puzzle. She looked at it and barked "Round puzzle huh? What are you trying to do to me? I prefer straight edges! ( adding sweetly) " But Thank You Kindly just the same" She was a great Dame!

I'm usually reluctant to read the comments when watching a video with actors or musicians from previous generations. Too many people going on about how much better everything was and how superior the older artists were to anything from today. It's kind of sad and pathetic, really, to be unable to see, hear and acknowledge the great talents of today. These older artists were great in their own right, and certainly don't need to be elevated by slagging what's out there today.

Anyone here remember that Bette was also known by the moniker: Mother Goddam. She didn't take crap from you. She also screen tested for the role of Scarlett O'Hara. Then again, so did every female in the business.
