Don't believe all you read in the Guardian (My paper of choice incidentally). Remember their retraction of the Pugwash names myth?

I'll stand corrected on Parker when you find the review, I'd like to know myself...

Yes, can't disagree with that!

However, I think David Benedict probably knows the original source! (if he got it wrong, there would immediately have been lots of letters!).

Significantly, Dorothy Parker Wiki quote doesn't mention it as being MIS-ATTRIBUTED, which as it's such a famous quote, you might reasonably expect.

(added) hmmm ..... a few quotation sites do attribute to Kerr, and - more important! - mention the actual article! In which case, when did it get switched to Dorothy, and why do lots of knowledgable people - including theatre critics - still attribute it to her?

(could it be they BOTH said it?).
