Nordly Beaumont March 7, 2017 Share March 7, 2017 (edited) Quote Nordly Beaumont -I'm a huge BD fan too, what's some of your fave films? My very favorite is Dark Victory. In my small circle of friends if someone says they're sick - the first thing we ask is "can you still feel the sun on your hands?" I'm also always telling them "Darling, poor fool, can't you see I'm in love with you?" I also love "Old Acquaintance" - that scene where Bette calmly strolls across the room and shakes the crap out of Miriam Hopkins, strolls back to the door and snips "Sorry" is GOLD! And I do love Whatever Happened to Baby Jane. It was the first Bette Davis movie I ever saw. I was sort of young for it (I actually had to go to bed before it was over! But mom woke me up a bit early so she could describe the ending before I went to school - and MAN I could not wait to tell all my friends about it!) Jezebel is another I can watch over and over. So what are your faves, Valny? I wish I had box DVD sets! Then there would always be something to watch! Edited March 7, 2017 by Nordly Beaumont 1 Link to comment

Writing Wrongs March 7, 2017 Share March 7, 2017 All About Eve is my fave Bette Davis movie. It's just so bitchy and perfect. The dialogue is great. I was looking at a list of Joan Crawford movies and I have only seen Mildred Pierce and Whatever Happened To Baby Jane? I've seen a bunch of Bette's movies. 2 Link to comment
psychoticstate March 7, 2017 Share March 7, 2017 I love All About Eve and Now, Voyager. I'll admit that I love the campy awesomeness of A Stolen Life and Another Man's Poison (which I can watch over and over, despite Bette chewing the scenery.) If anyone hasn't watched many Crawford movies, I would suggest the obvious Mildred Pierce (she's phenomenal and I love her banter with Eve Arden), Sudden Fear, The Women (amazing ensemble cast and a movie I have watched many, many times), A Woman's Face, Possessed (the 1931 film with Gable is stunning and they are both beautiful together) and Possessed from 1947, where she plays a mentally ill woman. She didn't make a lot of straight up comedies but Susan and God and They All Kissed the Bride are both great fun and she looks gorgeous in both (before the 50s when her look hardened and almost became masculine.) 1 Link to comment
CraftyHazel March 8, 2017 Share March 8, 2017 I had to come in here as a huge fan of Bette Davis and a moderate fan of Joan Crawford. I have read probably every Bette Davis biography written, have been on a quest to see every movie of hers I can get my hands on...I'm definitely borderline obsessed. To me, her best movie was "All About Eve", followed by "Now, Voyager" and "Dark Victory". But I've liked her in most everything I have seen her in. She was such a huge talent. Now Joan, I love "Mild red Pierce" and "The Women", but I usually find her too obviously Joan Crawford. I have the same problem with John Wayne and Jack Nicholson...I never see the character they are supposed to be, I see them AS that character, and it takes me right out of the movie experience. I find Joan oddly, almost pathetically likeable (despite the "Mommies Dearest" stories), especially after having read several biographies on her, too. What a great topic...Bette Davis and Joan Crawford! I'm in seventh heaven! 3 Link to comment

Am I misremembering, I thought she slapped Hopkins in Old Acquaintence. I haven't seen it in a while so you probably know better. Quote So what are your faves, Valny? I could tell you my top three. My very fave is a lesser known film, All This and Heaven Too. I highly recommend if anyone hasn't seen. It's such a different role for BD, she acting is reserved and quiet... nothing like her more melodramatic roles where she's hand wringing,being a tough woman or wise cracking,etc. I'd love to get the poster for it but I think it's one of the most unattractive movie posters I've seen. Anyway, to round out my Top Three: The Old Maid and Now,Voyager. I love when she transformed from the frumpy painfully shy woman to the glamorous version in Now,Voyager. The shot getting off the boat of her shoes/legs then the camera movie up and seeing what she has become was classic. I enjoy a lot of others like Marked Woman, That Certain Woman,The Letter,Jezebel, In This Our Life and of course Baby Jane and also one of her comedies with co-star James Cagney, The Bride Came C.O.D. and the list goes on and on.

Actually one of her bios I had taken out of the library and when I went to return it, I dropped it in a puddle so the pages got wet. I went home and dried them out with my hair dryer but when I returned it, they said it was damaged,(it wasn't that bad!) so I would have to pay the cost, so I just said, let me just buy the book instead and so I have a hard cover library book called Dark Victory-The Life of Bette Davis added to my collection! :) I should be a walking encyclopedia on BD by now but my tiny brain is old and doesn't hold much info anymore, so the info goes in then out pretty fast. But I'll remember certain things, like I was shocked to find out that she had at least two abortions,(possibly three,but like I said, can't remember) But it was definitely more than one. I like Joan Crawford too,but not as much as BD of course. She was quite good in Mildred Pierce(I have the movie poster) and there are a few more that I liked but would have to look up to tell you. I have just one dvd box set of hers. Quote I wish I had box DVD sets! Then there would always be something to watch! I do love my box sets! I each Christmas I had asked for a different one, that's how you do it! :) Quote What a great topic...Bette Davis and Joan Crawford! I'm in seventh heaven. Me too!

Razzberry March 8, 2017 Share March 8, 2017 One of my earliest childhood memories is of seeing Bette Davis in a restaurant near Santa Rosa, CA. I was too young (4?) to know or be impressed by who she was, but still vividly recall her walking by our table and just being blown away by this force of nature. I don't recall her face, though she had to be pretty old, but was dressed to the nines in brilliant blue sequins. I'd never experienced anything like it, and was sure she was "a queen". My mother was more excited by the fat guy at the table she was with, Hitchcock. I still don't know why they were there together, but just thought I'd share my brief brush with greatness. 13 Link to comment

The topics ARE fascinating and Ms. Longworth addresses some Hollywood history and lore that's basically been forgotten by all but the most devout classic Hollywood fan. But, at least IMO, she does not have the voice for broadcasting and she certainly does not do the impressions well. I can only listen to so much at a time because her narration bothers me so badly. I'm not certain if the mistakes I've noticed have been her mistakes or if she has someone researching who has made an error. I did notice in listening to the segments on Charles Manson's Hollywood that she almost continuously mispronounced Leslie Van Houten's name (saying "Van Hooten") which made me crazy. She pronounced it correctly once and then went back to mispronouncing it. I guess I'm OCD about that stuff because I felt like she should have caught that; she was narrating after all. However, I am glad that she was sympathetic to Crawford and didn't jump on the Mommie Dearest train. JC has gotten a very bad rap in the last handful of years and it's mostly undeserved. She participated in some marvelous classic movies and that's what she should be remembered for. 15 minutes ago, Razzberry said: One of my earliest childhood memories is of seeing Bette Davis in a restaurant near Santa Rosa, CA.

I think Davis was a phenomenal actress, at least the majority of the time, but she was a huge star because she simply came alive on camera. You couldn't take your eyes off her when she was on screen. The same thing with Joan Crawford. Another way in which they were similar! 4 Link to comment

Razzberry March 10, 2017 Share March 10, 2017 I often wondered what it was about her that impressed me so. It wasn't just the clothes, because everyone was dressed up.

Whatever that is, she had it in spades even then. Hitchcock, not so much. ;) 2 Link to comment
MonicaM March 10, 2017 Share March 10, 2017 (edited) I hadn't seen "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane" since I watched it on the late show as a teenager. My husband had never seen it. We found it on Amazon Prime and watched it last night. When we compared notes later, we had both been thinking the entire time that it wasn't a great movie, due in no small part to almost ridiculous plot holes. However, when it was over, we both had stiff muscles and joints and had difficulty getting up from our respective sofas. We realized this was because we had watched so intently that I'm not sure either of us moved except to breathe and blink. Together these two were beyond star power. I can't even describe the magic they created. Edited March 10, 2017 by MonicaM Complete sentences are nice. 4 Link to comment

voiceover March 11, 2017 Share March 11, 2017 Quote from Pilot ep thread: Personally I don't consider the silent film era as "Hollywood". Ouch. I can't wrap by head around that opinion. The silent era was the birth of Hollywood -- that makes it, ipso facto, Hollywood. All manner of the visuals in modern-day movie shorthand sprang from it. Valentino was the first international sex symbol (watch Son of the Sheik) because of it. Garbo: the ultimate tragic heroine. Fairbanks was Han Solo before George Lucas was born. And Crawford was actually much more attractive in her silent pics. Except for Chaplin, so much of current remembered Hollywood is voices, so the recall of the silent stars: obviously not on par. But the silent era not "Hollywood"?? Just, no. *clambers down from soapbox* For the All About Eve fans here, I hope you were able to catch it this past week, there on the big screen, as part of the TCM/Fandango partnership. It was AWESOME. I bored on at length about it in the TCM thread on Thursday. I can't remember who'd said of Davis: "That gal has as much sex appeal as Slim Summerville." Might have been Warner. Pfft to that -- as anyone who's watched her literally blow smoke at Paul Henried in Now, Voyager begs to fuckin' differ. 5 Link to comment
Arynm March 11, 2017 Share March 11, 2017 I have to agree with the above. Silent movies were the beginning of Hollywood. That's when the studios started moving to California and all the great film companies were formed. Remember that United Artists studio was started by Mary Pickford, Charlie Chaplin and Douglas Fairbanks, all of whom were huge silent movie stars. I understand that some people don't like the silent films, but I think that is doing them a great disservice. We wouldn't have had Clara Bow, Lillian Gish, Rudolph Valentino and Buster Keaton. Hell, even Greta Garbo got her start in the silent pictures. I had a very low opinion of Joan Crawford, probably because all I knew of her was Mommie Dearest, but her early work is flat out amazing. She is gorgeous! Someone upthread said she glows and it is so true! Bette Davis was also quite a looker in her early days, part of that might be attributed to her incredible acting skills, but she wasn't a dog. I think that many people that would have be considered beautiful in their time just aren't considered as pretty with standards changing. For instance, Jean Harlow does nothing for me, she comes off as harsh and boring looks-wise to me, but in her day she was a bombshell. Maybe the tide is turning the other way for women such as Bette Davis. 5 Link to comment
psychoticstate March 13, 2017 Share March 13, 2017 I love, love, love old Hollywood and I include the silent era in that as well. Now my personal preference is for the 1930s films, which I simply adore, but to not include the silents and those actors, actresses, writers and directors is really giving them short shrift. I think it's sad that so many are forgotten today, except by the most ardent film lovers. Chaplin wouldn't have been Chaplin if he had not gotten his start in silents. Could you imagine The Tramp speaking? It wouldn't have been the same. Lon Chaney Sr. was spectacular, in part because his movies were silents. Joan Crawford began in silents and if you ever watch "Our Dancing Daughters," which I think is her best silent film, you will understand why she became a star. She is mesmerizing. "Sunrise" is probably my favorite silent film; one of the best ever made. That was indeed the era when Hollywood was truly born; the early silent films were shot in New York and New Jersey but winters made filming tough and that's why the filmmakers began moving to California. These people produced massive amounts of films. Director Thomas Ince alone was responsible for making more than 800 films and he died at only 44! He is truly the father of Hollywood as he created the first major Hollywood studio facility and helped to develop the role of a producer in films. Ramon Navarro was our first Latin American movie star. Rudolph Valentino, as pointed out above, our first international star. Douglas Fairbanks Sr. and Mary Pickford was Hollywood's first power/"it" couple. The lovely Olive Thomas was the first actress to die in a questionable way and locale (and led to Hollywood's first true scandal.) These early players were also filthy rich - - Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle was earning a million dollars a year TAX FREE. (These were the days before income tax.) Today, that would be nearly $13 million. They were really and truly living the dream. So many of these actors, actresses, writers, directors gave us wonderful art and cinematic capsules of the time period. I'm sad that many films of that period were lost. 3 Link to comment

voiceover March 14, 2017 Share March 14, 2017 (edited) Thinking back to "Joan Blondell"'s line last night, about how women devour women and "pick their teeth with the bones"... Pauline Kael was a fine example of that. Ageism & sexism weren't JUST visited upon actresses by the men. I thought Kael had some great moments as a critic, but she shit all over performances by Bette Davis and Katharine Hepburn in much of their post-1960 work. ETA: From Kael's review of On Golden Pond: "[Hepburn] horribly overdoes Ethel's devotion to Norman, so that it calls attention to Ethel's own wonderfulness." Earlier in the review she declares that, "...the only way to show respect for elderly performers is to hold them to the same standards that they were held to when they were younger..." -- guess that's what she chanted in her head as she was typing up all those "God help those old dears, whyaretheystilldoingthis?" paragraphs. Notably, this kind of treatment was visited upon Kael in the end -- she was squeezed out in favor of New Blood, too. Edited March 14, 2017 by voiceover 2 Link to comment
AuntiePam March 14, 2017 Share March 14, 2017 I liked Crawford in Mildred Pierce and thought she was wonderful and sexy in Woman on the Beach. Other than that (and Baby Jane), I've avoided all her movies. That might be because of the Mommie Dearest stuff, or maybe because she comes off as cold. Watching Feud has given me some sympathy for her, so maybe I'll watch TCM for more of her movies. Or not. Bette Davis is my favorite actress, period. I've probably seen 95% of her movies. The Little Foxes is my favorite. She just seems so real and honest, and I appreciate that she was willing to be "old", that she didn't hide from the camera when she was no longer a pretty young thing. (Loved her in A Catered Affair too.) 1 Link to comment

enoughcats April 4, 2017 Share April 4, 2017 Decades ago, when I was a child, it was the 40s and 50s. We lived in a smallish county seat in Virginia. I have many, many vivid memories of people, of houses, even of friends pets. One somewhat hazy memory is of one of my parents well educated friends, who seemed bigger that life for whatever that means to a child. She was tall (hell, to a child every adult is tall) and she was expressive, and she had a huge smile. And big gestures. Trying to remember who she was has been a bother to me ever since I watched the first Ep. of Feud and went back and watched the pre 50s movies of both Crawford and Davis. This woman 'took after' Joan Crawford. Analytical me now realizes that the blackened eyebrows weren't her real color, and her mannerisms were somewhat taken from Joan Crawford of the 30s. It's only with watching this epoch series and watching the movies of the real stars that I'm able to put into its place a part of my childhood that is both a vivid memory and a bit of a wonder at how someone could be just a little bit more than her comtemporaries. Thank you for reading my memories, which I'm having some trouble expressing. 1 Link to comment
