Throwing a Purse Out the Window
Joe Franklin and Tallulah Bankhead were together in a taxi stopped at a red light when a beggar came up to the window and asked Ms. Bankhead for a dime. She opened her purse, the red light changed to green, the taxi driver said he couldn’t wait and took off, and so Ms. Bankhead threw her purse and all its contents out of the window for the beggar to pick up.
Mr. Franklin was impressed: “She was an amazing lady. She didn’t go back for it. Just spontaneous.” Mr. Franklin did his own good deeds. He used to visit an old comedian who had made movies for Hal Roach and Mack Sennett. The old comedian was always drunk, and his room was always filthy, but Mr. Franklin would bring him coffee and leave him money on the table. During these visits, Mr. Franklin would think, “How sad the [movie] industry neglected the ones who built up the business.”
