Cactus Flower was Bergman’s first time on a Hollywood soundstage since the 1940s and she was just as taken with Rick, who was much younger than her. Her co-star told us: “Even though she was twenty years older than I was, I had a crush on her—I knew it was silly. She was a beautiful movie star, already a legend. I was lucky to have my role.
“I played the same intimate scene with her that I had with Bacall on stage. We danced in the scene. My character, Igor, says something about her being a sexy lady. She says, ‘An old sexy lady.’ I say, ‘Good, let’s run away and live on your Social Security.’
“Lauren Bacall had liked me in the role, but Ingrid liked me personally. You can tell these things. Sometimes. We talked for hours during the times Walter Matthau and Goldie Hawn were doing their scenes and while we were learning our dance number for the final nightclub sequence. I guess I thought it was probably kind of a mother thing she felt toward me, but I was extremely flattered that she was interested in me.”
