Tabloid-style documentary on the great Hollywood film icon Bette Davis. The narrator is about as subtle as a brick, but I thought fans might like to see this.

    Bette Davis was no joke. She seemed like the type of woman who kept it 💯 at all times. I respect people like that.

    Bette Davis: "I was thought to be stuck up. I wasn't. I was just sure of myself. This is and always has been an unforgivable quality of the unsure." My favorite quotes of hers! Wise woman, strong, brilliant, resilient, courageous. All the things so many in the industry lack today. Can you imagine if Weinstein tried his antics on THIS woman? And she was a phenomenal actress! Could play any part! Hush Sweet Charlotte is one of my favorite movies of hers. None like her then or now, or ever probably.

    I always thought that host A.J. Benza demonstrated the hard edge that this series demanded. He was well-cast by the producers.

    This old show is really good. They put just about everything in a short time frame. Thanks for posting!

    My favorite movie of hers is Now Voyages. She was so beautiful in that movie.

    She was a pioneer for women's lib. Independent, intelligent, not a bird brain. A leader, not a follower. Smarter than many men. Didn't lean on her husbands. Go Betty! RIP! Blessings and prayers to her family and friends.

    The Watcher in the Woods and Return to Witch Mountain are and were really great and both are classic

    Bette Davis, to put it nicely, took no foolishness of anyone.
  • @moviemonster2083
    Not only was she a brilliant actress, Bette also, at the height of her career, was a President of the Screen Actors Guild AND co-founder and staffer (along with John Garfield) of the Hollywood Canteen during World War II that gave servicemen and women a place to gather and dance and eat for free when they came to Hollywood, as well as going on exhausting bond tours and other duties. Compare that to the selfish lives of current so-called stars.

    "The Nanny' (1965) was in no way 'a terrible movie'. Quite the contrary, it was a good psychological-horror film with a great plot twist, and Bette Davis' uncharacteristically restrained performance was excellent.
