Lauren Bacall, her husband Humphrey Bogart, Frank Sinatra, Judy Garland, Liberace, Sophie Tucker, and studio chief Jack Warner at the after-party held following the Hollywood premiere of the Warner Bros./George Cukor musical drama A Star Is Born, photos by Earl Leaf, September 29th, 1954. Fun Fact: Following the passing of Bogart in 1957, Bacall and Sinatra were an "item" and briefly engaged. Splitting acrimoniously before they were wed, they didn't speak to each other for almost twenty years with Lauren writing in her 1978 autobiography By Myself that Frank "didn't have to be such a shit about it" regarding the way he handled their sudden and unexpected break-up, which had caught her totally off-guard.

Warner Brothers Suits dont give a damn about their animated legacy ,and they never have

Ya know its popular to point to David Zaslav as the boogeyman of Looney Tunes for Warner Brothers treatment of the property recently ,putting Coyote vs Acme on the shelf as a tax write off ,getting rid of all the Looney Tunes on streaming to focus on a "New direction" and the fact Day the Earth Blew Up had to be saved by a no WB distributer ,so the popular thing I see now is Zaslav is a money hungry villain who cares not for these characters who are crucial to Warner Brothers Legacy .......And while I agree Zaslav sucks and the Looney Tunes deserve more reverence .....Fact is WARNER BROTHERS HAS NEVER GIVEN A DAMN ABOUT BUGS AND THE GANG ,ONLY THE MONEY THEY CAN MAKE OFF OF THEM

See the thing about the Looney Tunes is they were intiailly kind of seperate from the rest of WB ,they were run by a bunch of producers(Initially Leon Schlesenger, then Edward Selzer ,and then David H Depattie ).....All of whom were hands off ,they were middle men between the cartoon studio and the animators ...And the studio at large didnt give a FUCK about the Looney Tunes .Like they were popular ,they won oscars ,and even Bugs Bunny eneded up in a few movies.....But to the Warners ,the cartoons were filler,seelling off several to other distributors,let a few slip into public domain ,JAck Warner didnt even know where on the lot the cartoon studio was ....And Harry Warner didnt eve know what kind of cartoons they made ,thinking they made MICKEY MOUSE .Hell,JAck Warner once SHUT THEM DOWN cause he got obssessed with 3D ,he reopened them but that my point ,to the Warners never gave a damn about the Looney Tunes .....And thets never really changed

Yes to the audiences I think a big thing we associate with the brand of Warner Brothers is their cartoons ,we think Bugs ,Daffy ,Porky and the rest .....But the studio does not.They dont see legacy ,they doint see art ....They see profit

The reverence for the Looney Tunes is seen by the creatives ,and the audiences,and why not these characters have stood the test of time for nearly a century but,those who hold the keys dont see that ,and they never have
