Memories
316 Bowery Street, the former Astor Lounge, glimpsed out of a cab window at 2 a.m.
In the Window
37th Street, in between 7th and 8th.
“Mr. Churchill, I think you ought to know what you did for me.”
“This is a White Russian, not a Red Russian. This is a hustling semi-Armenian Russian.” Great anecdote about Orson Welles and Winston Churchill, one of Welles’s favorite stories to tell.
“He has a way of coming on as a great thinker. Which should be stopped.”
Part 2 of the same interview. I could watch these two guys go at it for days.
“Does Jerry Lewis ring a bell?” “A rather dim gong.”
Charming. Beautiful. Fun. Every second.
