The Vices of Tallulah Bankhead

Tallulah Bankhead (1902-1968), supposedly the inspiration for Disney's Cruella de Vil, addresses her vices in her 1952 autobiography Tallulah. Admitting her own personal code for drinking, Tallulah also dives into her experiences with cocaine, heroin, marijuana and opium. She also recalls her potential romance with John "Jack" Barrymore after spotting him at the Algonquin Hotel one night in 1919/1920.
