Well, you know what they say in Hollywood - the most important thing is being sincere, even if you have to fake it.

George Raft may or may not have gone both ways, but he was very sensitive to what they said about him, and it was one factor why he decided to play all those gangsters in the movies.

But by the time I was 40, everything was winding down. It started after the war. On the plus side, there was more more products and technology. But for me the nightlife was winding down, the glamour, the fun.

I can't date women my own age any more - I hate going to cemeteries.

The make up took about an hour to put on, but the wig was a thing that bothered me more than anything else.

I was supposed to be a romancer, either wooing the leading lady or competing with the leading man for her.

I was out dancing with one actress or another. And that got press. Even when it didn't, the whole town knew I was a dancing fool, and since I couldn't very well dance with a man, they saw me dancing with a lady, and they assumed the rest.
