What is your favorite Bette Davis movie or movies? Mine is either Baby Jane or Jezebel. I also love the man who came to dinner and all about eve. Watcher in the Woods is good too, and I like a lot of others.

Unfortunately, Harvest Home hasn't been shown on T V in several years. I have the video.

TNT used to show it now and then but not in a long time!

If you ever get a chance to see it, tape it, or you may never see it again!

I like to watch "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane" and I honestly can't stand her or i believe the other lady in the movie was Joan Crawford?Most past actresses don't accomidate my likings,though I'll admit classic movies are sometimes the best!

Whatever Happened To Baby Jane. Bette Davis & Joan Crawford, such great
actresses.

No one's mentioned Now Voyager yet?

I love that movie. I bought the whole Bette Davis collection just for that one. I still can't decide if Paul Henried's the hero or Claude Rains. I think there's an argument both ways. Great, great, great movie.

"Don't let's ask for the moon, Jerry. We have the stars."

I actually think her best performance was in Of Human Bondage. She almost won the Oscar that year - by a write-in! It's a crime that she didn't win for that.

Woah - 5,000th post!
