    In Designing Woman, Gregory Peck at one point describes Bacall's character as "That ugly girl."
    Bacall isn't really ugly, she was hot but she'd disappear if Ava Gardner was in the same room with her. I'm sure even Bacall herself would admit that. She's shown herself to be a frank woman and sometimes she could actually be frank about herself.

      Peck's good looking, and Bacall's not ugly at all.

        I think the poster meant Peck's character said that, not Peck himself. Am I right?

          My post wasn't referring to her now-she looks great for her age. I meant when she was in her prime.

            I really doubt Mr. Peck meant that. They were great friends outside of work and had much respect for one another. I believe it was his character in the movie that said that.

              An updateI just saw a clip on Lauren Bacall on TCM, which was narrated by Gregory Peck. He was reminiscing about the good ole days and his fond memories of Ms. Bacall. He starts the clip off with "They Had Faces Then . . . and Lauren Bacall had one of the best. She still does . . . " So, obviously, he thought she was a stunner, too.

                First of all to the person that said Peck makes them sick and can't act as well. PECK'S CHARACTER CALLED16d0 HER UGLY.
                Secondly he only called it because he was hung over and annoyed. The next line is "I'll even be nice to that ugly girl that was bothering me" (see's her) "Must have been another girl!"

                    but when he looks again, he says, "must have been a different girl!"
                    I don't think she would disappear in a room with Ava Gardner, though too much presence. She has an unusual, almost harsh look, but very sensual and commanding.
                    My brother once commented that she looks better older [as in, Dinner At Eight] idunno, I think the same thing of Sean Conneroy.

                      personally i think lauren bacall was & is stunning. plus she has aged so well & beautifully (like catherine deneuve has) but still i can't help but agree about ava gardner! but then she had a such a raw, natural sexiness - a real broad - that even marilyn monroe (whom i adore btw) would have found it hard (even in her full made up marilyn finery) to out shine ava in a room not just for her looks but for her whole way of being so confident & ballsy

                        YOUR
                        opinion because I don't find Ava Gardner to be more beautiful than Lauren Bacall, I don't even find Ava Gardner mesmerizingif you had said Rita Hayworth was standing by Lauren Bacall, I could see your point.

                            she isnt necesarily a great beauty..but she was pretty, she is still an attractive womanBut she was certainly NOT ugly, she was far from being that
                            Every parting from you is like a little eternity.

                                  Lauren Bacall is so sexy and beautiful, I wish there were more role models like her right now for our young girls that are growing up. Lauren was strong, sexy (legs that went on forever)and smart. She never (and hasn't) acted the big boobed dyed blonde air headed celeberity that are role models for our girls today.

                                    I've always thought her to be ugly. She was certainly not as beautiful as other women of that film era ( her younger years. But she is very confident that she is attractive so if she is comfortable with her looks, more power to her I guess.

                                      She was very beautiful; she just didn't age well at all.

                                        If Laren Bacall is and was very ugly then Monroe was ugly and Audrey Hepburn was just okay. That would make me a pimple on Sophia Loren's butt. Okay then.

                                          I'd say she looks damn good for 81.
