Oh my stars, you're right! She is amazing. This is nice, after all of the loss, thinking of who is still here. Thank you all very much.

One of them, absolutely. It is past my bed time but I hope to spend tomorrow in my library, thinking about who is still here from the Golden, magical days of Hollywood. It was wonderful to get to have Betty for such a long time. She was quite fabulous and a great sport. Just a hideous, shocking week for we who love film actors in the US.
No resting in peace - go enjoy seeing everyone again. Tell Kate hi from her namesakes.
Thank you for a much more thoughtful thread, I appreciate it, @There_Is_No_Sayid

If Debbie Reynolds (born 1932) and Julie Andrew (born 1935) make the list, then Sidney Poitier (born 1927) should also.

If we're counting leading ladies who weren't necessarily "stars," Joan Leslie, Lizabeth Scott, Rhonda Fleming, and Arlene Dahl 7ecare still around.

Liz was the last of the female mega ones, but Bacall was also a great, classic star.
Actors are mere products of a good writer's imagination

Don't forget Brigitte Bardot (born 1934), who is also still alive.
Larry Appleton: "I have"
Balki Bartokomous: "Oh, God!"
Larry Appleton: "a plan!"

No offense and I have nothing against Ms. Eden but she is not, by any stretch of the imagination, a "classic movie star".
Excuse me for talking while you're interrupting.

Although they didn't hit the same heights as Ms. Bacall, we still have Mary Carlisle, who was a leading lady at MGM in the early to mid 1930', and the still lovely Marsha Hunt, who made her film debut in 1935.
Also: Diana Serra Cary, who was a star in silent films under the name, "Baby Peggy." And speaking of Child Stars, Jane Withers, who rivaled Shirley Temple in the 1930's.
They are few and far between, and like Ms. Bacall, will never be replaced.
