NEWS Lauren Bacall dies

Lauren Bacall dies

13th of August 2014, 07:55

One day after the death of icon Robin Williams, more sad news from the stars arrive with the death of Lauren Bacall.

Bacall suffered a massive stroke at her New York home on Tuesday morning 12th August, a family member said.

"With deep sorrow, yet with great gratitude for her amazing life, we confirm the passing of Lauren Bacall," the Bogart Estate said on Twitter.

They appeared together in several films, including The Big Sleep (1946) and Key Largo (1948).

She was born Betty Joan Perske on September 16, 1924, in New York City, the only child of immigrant parents.

After her parents' divorce, she adopted a variation of her mother's maiden name, Bacal.

The public knew her as Lauren, the screen name hung on her by director Howard Hawks, while friends called her Betty.

Bogart simply called her "Baby", in a love story that ended prematurely with his death from throat cancer at the age of 57.

Bacall had set out to be a Broadway star. She played small roles on stage and modelled for Harper's Bazaar magazine, which published a photograph of her that was spotted by Hawks' wife.

Bacall was only 19 when Hawks cast her in her first movie, 1944's To Have and Have Not, as an American girl who shows up at a seedy hotel in Martinique.

She won a place in Hollywood history when she purred to Bogart, "You know how to whistle, don't you? You just put your lips together - and blow."

They wed the next year after he ended his turbulent third marriage to actress Mayo Methot.

Bacall and Bogart went on to star together in The Big Sleep (1946), Dark Passage (1947) and Key Largo (1948).

Bacall starred in more than 30 other films including How to Marry a Millionaire (1953) with Marilyn Monroe and Designing Woman (1957) with Gregory Peck.

Prepare for the Final Season of HBO's 'Boardwalk Empire' with a Sexy New Trailer

12th of August 2014, 18:27

This is the trailer for the final season of "Boardwalk Empire," and a look into what Terence Winter has in store for Nucky Thompson.

It's 1931 and we are deep into the Great Depression. The country is chomping at the bit to bring Prohibition to an end. The smart ones like Nucky Thompson (Steve Buscemi) are squeezing every crooked cent out of their operations before having to hang 'em. Terence Winter and his writing team on "Boardwalk Empire" are doing the same thing, fitting in as much action and drama as they can into the final eight episode frame of the series

In this trailer, threats are uttered, shots are fired and confrontations are held. Season 5 of "Boardwalk Empire" knows time is running out, so it jumps forward and backward in its antihero's crime career. The trailer provides brief looks at what appear to be flashbacks, tracing Nucky's childhood for key events that made him into the man he is today (stop me when this starts to sound like "The Sopranos" or "Mad Men"). 

Set to air the first of its eight-episode final season September 7 on HBO, "Boardwalk Empire" will find its final conclusion on October 26th
