George Washington said: "Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for it is better to be alone than in bad company." Charlotte Walker was the nurse in "Sloth." It is all a matter of taste. You happen to think that brunettes photograph better than blondes. Harry Hilliard opposite Theda Bara in "Romeo and Juliet."
