When the movies first started, audiences were dumbstruck to see actresses walking around in evening gowns. They'd never seen anything like that. They wanted to be like those actors and actresses, so the movies informed their behavior. A lot of people started drinking martinis and smoking cigarettes because they felt it was cool.
Bette Midler
Here I am, one of the most colorful women of my time - if not of my block - being made to sound positively legumelike in printed interviews.
