Tribute Lauren Bacall

DESIGNING WOMAN

WARUM HAB ICH JA GESAGT?
Vincente Minnelli
USA 1957

Vincente Minnelli directed this sophisticated comedy, which owes a debt to Spencer Tracy/Katherine Hepburn vehicles. Sportswriter Mike Hagen and fashion designer Marilla are New Yorkers who meet while both are vacationing in California. Its love at first sight, and the two decide on the spur of the moment to get married. However, once they return to the Big Apple, it starts to occur to them just how different they are after Mike moves out of his sloppy bachelor lair in the Village and joins Marilla in her luxury flat on the Upper East Side. Bacalls sparkling comic performance was a remarkable display of personal strength; as the movie was being filmed, her husband Humphrey Bogart was suffering from the last stages of the cancer that would soon claim his life.
