When’s the last time you got into a fight?
The last time you took it outside, socked the sonofabitch, readjusted your tie and went about your business – where was it? In a bar? How about in a ballroom?
Today in 1931, two film big-shots exchanged blows at the Hollywood Biltmore, in the middle of a dance. The fight was between prolific writer Herman J. Mankiewicz, famous for writing the screenplay for Citizen Kane and rewriting The Wizard of Oz, and executive David O. Selznick, later producer of Gone with the Wind.
What spawned it? Who knows… Maybe Selznick insulted the cowardly lion.

I thought the same thing and wondered if it was a woman's arm. The title of the image is Mike Getting Socked.
