there are a few mistakes on this video, she died in 1989, not 1999, she arrived in California in a train station, not at the airport, Louise Ryner was the first woman to win the oscar twice
I always liked Bette Davis more than Joan Crawford. P. S. I remember when the song "Bette Davis Eyes" was released. Davis laughed hysterically when asked about it & said, "of all the things about me one would put in a song, I guess my eyes are the best choice". If you haven't seen her movie, "Whales Of August" with Lillian Gish, please watch it.
Though this video sounded like a documentary I would have to say in my opinion that the video did clearly speak on witchcraft as she was known to have had adulterous affairs which that alone is considered witchcraft. If I recall correctly she was messing around with a married guy and had an (abortion) during the filming of “Jezebel.” Research the name Jezebel and you’ll find all kinds of crazy stuff! Abortions are used in witchcraft/Satanic rituals. She was NOT as good looking as some of the Hollywood gals from her era or today but yet managed to get the roles she wanted. She was seductive - also witchcraft. Her own family had stated that she was bad news from the beginning and not to mention that she supposedly had the ability to shape-shift?? As witnessed by her relatives? She was possessed big time! She was a creepy chick that made good movies 🎥..
@@alvarocorral1576 lmao, so, basically if you're a woman- it's "witchcraft"🙄... how tf is dating a married man, getting an abortion and being an "ugly actress" considered witchcraft to you?! You got some loose screws, pal. Get off YT.
@@Ninikyu95 I’m happy to answer your question since I’m assuming you have NO moral compass and I’m guessing you also don’t believe in Jesus Christ. To better understand the situation we have go to something called “the Bible” which consists of the Old Testament and New Testament that Christians read. Here is a verse to start out with: 1 Samuel 15:23 - For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king. I also recommend that you read (Proverbs 5-7) to give you a better idea of what I meant in my comment. I do want to add that in the Holy Bible there are many references to witchcraft to include many ancient stories. To make a long story short committing adultery is WRONG 6th and 9th in Catholic commandments, and abortion falls under our 5th commandment, thow shall not murder - I will say that this topic is very controversial even amongst Christians though we (don’t eat aborted fetuses) like I seen them do in a video in China! Both women and men can be evil - not just ugly actresses. Anytime you go against the Word of God/10 Commandments, it is called a sin/rebellion/witchcraft as stated in 1 Samuel. Feel free to (call me out) anytime!
I just watched an whole day of Betty Davis on TCM and it was fabulous and fun. I was so excited that was my plan for the day was to research more on her life and career. I even drew a picture of her and yes, she has Betty Davis eyes!!! 🖤🖤🖤
@@angelabalken6223 Angela , don't believe it ... there's no way I'm going to believe that James Stewart was into that stuff and I'll bet you most of them were not into that crazy stuff ... they may have been boozers they may have been drug addicts some of them and they may have been promiscuous some of them but no I doubt if most of those people were into witchcraft
An Icon in the Internacional Cinema. What a great actress. "Al About Eve", "The Letter", "Whatever Happen to Baby Jane", "Jezabel",my favorites. There will never be an actress with that force in interpreting in that high level, or very hardly. Unique talent.
You seemed to have mixed up Bette Davis with Joan Crawford. Bette Davis did not have a contract with MGM or appeared in the chorus of Innocent Eyes. Additionally, when she arrived in Hollywood, she took a train and not an airplane. I really think you need to check your facts before posting. Just saying…..
@Fred. I also hate it when people cannot be bothered to correctly research their subject, especially when posting online. BD was always my favourite actor. Stay blessed. 🇯🇲
I was really in to reading about Occultism as a kid. Crowley wrote of, and practiced Ceremonial Magic. Its very elaborate and ritualistic. Looks like its be easier to just go out and do whatever the Hell you were trying to accomplish, instead of using his system to manifest it! 😆 I'm not saying that there isn't Occultism and bizarre, awful things, going on in Hollywood! And probably even more so in political circles. But Better Davis sitting on her bed, burning papers that had the names of people that she didn't like on them, doesn't exactly sound like high ritual magic, to me. But! She's dead, and I guess we can all think whatever we will. Also, the statement about her being some sort of Witch, is from her daughter, who is.. Something else! As we say in The South! :)
She's always been one of my favorite actresses. She was very generous with her daughter whom she bought a horse farm. But her daughter wrote a horrible tell all book about Bette, criticizing her drinking, smoking and disciplining of Bette's grandchildren. Her daughter needed money at the time she published the book.
IMO, B.D. told the truth about her mother. Bette Davis was a fabulous actress but had narcissistic tendencies, as well as issues with alcoholism, control, etc. I can understand why B.D. wrote that book.
@@EYE_GOTCHA What really got Bette Davis upset about her daughter's book is that she released it while Davis was still alive. Her daughter said she did that to try & get her mother to be a better grandmother to her kids but it didn't work; it only infuriated Davis.
Her daughter was a hypocrite. Christian my ass. BD has a website. She is so hated you can't even leave comments on it. When Bette passed, her last husband Gary Merrill was interviewed and he even said that BDs book was 99% lies. She was payed $100,000 to write the book. At least Joan's daughter waited till her mother had passed before she released her book. Money changes people. Bette Davis is a great actress and will always be known for that. Her daughter will always be known as a total "B"!!!
She hated errol flynn and she wanted Laurence olivier instead of him. She was rude with him and in a scene she slapped him particularly hard. He told her that it hurt him and she said to him that he just had to deal with it. Years after his death, she admitted that he could act. I think that when she hated someone she has to work with in real life, she could be dangerous during a scene with that person. Perfect example : Joan Crawford. The best ennemies.
@@elizabethbrower640 I think she hated him being a player and she was looking for excellence and thought that Laurence Olivier would have been the big deal.
E. Arnot Roberston was the critic who proclaimed that Bette would probably have been burned as a witch IF she had lived 2 or 3 hundred years ago. It was included in his review for a break-through role for Davis in DANGEROUS
Would have loved to have seen her on Broadway in Tennessee Williams' The Night of the Iguana with Patrick O'Neal. I always heard that was a stellar production.
Bette Davis's daughter was a nut! :( Black Magic - pffffft! She was an amazing actress and a fascinating person and I'm so glad that I got to meet her!
She was an amazing actress and fascinating person but like all of us humans imperfect. She admitted as much to Barbara Walters in her 1985 interview. She delighted in her own complexity and difficult behaviors. She admitted to witchcraft and black magic whether you want to believe her or not.
I think you might want to check your facts about how Davis arrived in Hollywood. I've seen a picture of her, Ruthie, and a little dog alighting a train in Pasadena and expecting to be met by a studio rep. Correct me if I am wrong.
You missed the 1st Bette Davis movie I ever saw... "Whatever Happened To Baby Jane?". That was a stellar movie & Bette Davis was more than just phenomenal in the role. I also adored her in "The Petrified Forest".
That witchcraft nonsense is a fairly recent accusation by her daughter BD. Disrespects her mother, and is willing to trade on her mother's name for attention for her evangelical ministry.
@@catherinepositano8544 her daughter is B.D. Hyman. Her daughter wrote a scathing “mommy dearest” type tell all in the early 80’s. When that book didn’t gain the traction that Crawford’s book received she started adding new stories in interviews.
As she said she did it the hard way,I love that woman she didn't care what people thought of her,her film 🎥 were sometimes odd but most out of this world,rest in peace Bettie God bless you amen 🌠🌼💙🐦🌷🌟⭐✨💯
Two notes. A) That ungrateful daughter will never stop envying her mother's fame and thus she will never stop trying to destroy her fame. What a loser. B) It should be pointed out that MEN set up Hollyweird. They were following in the footsteps of William Shakespeare where only men played all the roles. Yes, both Romeo and Juliette were played by men with the play opened in England. So, whenever I hear of women like Davis whining about how they were FIGHTING so had for respect and better parts or whatever, all I can think is they got all the respect they deserved because the MEN were letting women play parts at all.
My grammy Gladys and I were very close and Betty Davis was both our favorite actress Betty Davis was born in the early 19th century just like my grammy they both in heaven now! Summer 2021
The stupid story of Bette being a witch was started by her greedy over weight daughter who Bette disowned and got tired of supporting along with a son in law who never worked (so she said)....
Excellent in Mr.Skeffington, The Little Foxes, All About Eve, The Star, The Catered Affair, Whatever Happened to Baby Jane, totally hammy in The Anniversary, wonderful in tv movies Strangers: Portrait of a Mother and Daughter and Right of Way and Burnt Offerings...
"Her own mother claimed she was evil from day 1..." Really?! Why is it that Bette paid for her own mother's lifestyle for years, including her sisters?! Also, Bette paid for B.D.'s ENTIRE "WEDDING," including the "HONEYMOON". Why did B.D. ALWAYS come to her mother to "BABYSIT" if she were so evil?! I'm NOT saying Bette was a PUSSYCAT, FAR FROM IT, but people can be such HYPOCRITES, especially children who write TELL ALL BOOKS about their mother, trying to CASH IN ON THE NOTERIETY!!!!
BETTE DAVIS AND TALLULAH BANKHEAD .WHENEVER I THINK ONE I THINK OF THEE OTHER..THEY BOTH HAD SAME PRESENCE..THEIRS YOU TUBE AUDIO CLIP OF MS DAVIS SPEAKING ABOUT AN ENCOUNTER WITH EACH OTHER...THE BRUJA HOCUS POCUS I DON'T BELIEVE ..DARLING S...THANK YOU.
I always appreciate the work that goes into such an undertaking as your channel. That said, I watch them in spite of, not due to, the prurient titles. I suspect that most old movie lovers do the same :) Bette Davis' daughter is profiting financially from her fantasies of an evil witch of a mother. Do we have to do assist her in this endeavour? Miss Davis was and is a great actress. The idea that in the 21st century we are still throwing Witch Trial stones at strong, independently minded women is revolting. Let the daughter profit with her particular religious and tabloid proclivities. Can't we celebrate someone's legacy in a positive way without bringing in unflattering comparisons to others, or, in this case suggesting that Miss Davis was somehow unusually gifted in the necromantic arts as well as dramatic? Also, "frenemy" Joan Crawford was not in "Dangerous" with then fiance Franchot Tone and Miss Davis. Baby Jane was their first and last appearance on the screen together, if memory serves. Thank you for your time and effort in keeping our beloved old Hollywood remembered.
She was a good actress and enjoyed all her films .the only film of her that i have yet to see is her first for universal in which she played twin sisters .That is the one I have yet to see . although I did see her small apart in the first film version of Waterloo bridge .
I ADORE Claudette Colbert in The Egg and I with Fred MacMurray and Ma and PA Kettle. Claudette was a lesbian, thus did not have to do the casting couch indignity. Probably the safest way to be a female actor in Hollywood.
I just loved her. I think her daughter should have appreciate d her. She was a very lucky girl to have Bette as a mom. She could have had Joan Crawford. BD is a very delusional person. She is no witch.
@@hellomontana2318 B.D. Only came up with that nonsense recently. She’s only looking for attention and to scare people into believing her BS brand of Evangelical “Christianity”. I saw a video of her proclaiming this about BD. You can see she’s lost her mind.
@@hellomontana2318 Uh if she was actually practicing “Black Magic”, don’t you think B.D. would have mentioned that in her book she wrote 40 plus years ago? Someone said, ‘Well, she wasn’t “saved” (barf) back then..’ I don’t care if B.D. was “saved” (barf). If Bette Davis was “putting curses” on her rivals etc; that would have absolutely been fodder for B.D.’s book. Only it would have been something like, ‘My mom was completely delusional and behaved as though she thought she was cursing her rivals and enemies’. Rather than 40 something years later claiming she was “practicing Black Magic”. I’m sure Bette Davis was a giant PITA as a mother and to live with. And most likely Bette Davis was a deeply selfish person because in order to have had the career she did; she would have to have been. She loved acting and she loved being Bette Davis. Her mom has been gone 32 years and she still can’t seem to stop talking about Bette Davis.
This is not an autobiography, only a 16 minute video. Critic in every crowd, perhaps accept what information IS given, not what isn't, so prevalent on maon stream news as the new norm, to have viewers complain. Sheesh. You do a video.
@@cindydufala7646 Really Cindy? You gotta go there? Imagine a 16 min vid on Elvis & his career & no mention of Hound Dog or Blue Suede Shoes or Love Me Tender? Same diff. And I don’t really care what you think Cindy. The question remains. -__-
@ Michael Harrington It’s true that she never was a Hitchcock villain, but she did make an excellent film in 1965 called “The Nanny” which was similar to the Hitchcock style. Very tense.
Bette was a known witch, and used it to get parts with it but probably a lot of people know about that already. I don't know what color her candle was, but maybe it was black. I don't know, I never saw it. I did try to get her to repent and get Saved but I do not think she ever did. She lived in Laguna Beach, which was near where I grew up and where my dad worked, but I only spoke with her a few times. She was not very social, my dad said she liked her privacy. She was much older and my dad told me to leave he alone, even though I was only trying to help her. Other than that, I do not remember much else about her.
Anyone out there who really believes in black magic and witches needs to immediately call one of their former therapists, of which I am sure there are several, and make a new appointment!

An amazing film. (There's so many.) Bette at her best!
Definitely one of my top 10 favorite movies. Bette Davis and Joan Crawford were the best in it.
Like Burnt Offerings? 🤔 joking! She was amazing in this film 😁
I was in knots watching that movie she terrified me.
She was amazing in "Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte." No one else could have played that part.

I always appreciate the work that goes into such an undertaking as your channel. That said, I watch them in spite of, not due to, the prurient titles. I suspect that most old movie lovers do the same :) Bette Davis' daughter is profiting financially from her fantasies of an evil witch of a mother. Do we have to do assist her in this endeavour? Miss Davis was and is a great actress. The idea that in the 21st century we are still throwing Witch Trial stones at strong, independently minded women is revolting. Let the daughter profit with her particular religious and tabloid proclivities. Can't we celebrate someone's legacy in a positive way without bringing in unflattering comparisons to others, or, in this case suggesting that Miss Davis was somehow unusually gifted in the necromantic arts as well as dramatic? Also, "frenemy" Joan Crawford was not in "Dangerous" with then fiance Franchot Tone and Miss Davis. Baby Jane was their first and last appearance on the screen together, if memory serves. Thank you for your time and effort in keeping our beloved old Hollywood remembered.
She was the BEST!
I've been told I have Betty Davis' eyes even before the song was popular. I don't really see it though...
She was a good actress and enjoyed all her films .the only film of her that i have yet to see is her first for universal in which she played twin sisters .That is the one I have yet to see . although I did see her small apart in the first film version of Waterloo bridge .
Bad sister. It's good!
Where did this ridiculous notion come from. Davis was not only great at acting but was one of the more intelligent actresses in Hollywood at the time.
Her ingrateful brat of daughter. Who is also something of a nut.
I liked her in 'The Watcher in the Woods.'
I love Bette Davis.
What about Celeste holm ?
I second that!
I ADORE Claudette Colbert in The Egg and I with Fred MacMurray and Ma and PA Kettle. Claudette was a lesbian, thus did not have to do the casting couch indignity. Probably the safest way to be a female actor in Hollywood.
Ha!
That wouldn't have protected her at all.
Also, lesbian agents and directors exist, and did back then.
Her given names Ruth Elizabeth ( hence) Bette ,often a nickname for Elizabeth.
i thought she was born in lowell mass
The powers that be might have thought that Bette Davis was not a screen beauty but she was the best actress in her day and in my eye...
I just loved her. I think her daughter should have appreciate d her. She was a very lucky girl to have Bette as a mom. She could have had Joan Crawford. BD is a very delusional person. She is no witch.
I was about to write this. Why are BD's jealous accusations being accepted as facts? So Bette did black magic...give me a break...
You were not raised in that home. You and I will never know the truth. If B.D says it happened- then you can either believe it or not.
@@hellomontana2318 B.D. Only came up with that nonsense recently. She’s only looking for attention and to scare people into believing her BS brand of Evangelical “Christianity”. I saw a video of her proclaiming this about BD. You can see she’s lost her mind.
@@hellomontana2318 Uh if she was actually practicing “Black Magic”, don’t you think B.D. would have mentioned that in her book she wrote 40 plus years ago? Someone said, ‘Well, she wasn’t “saved” (barf) back then..’ I don’t care if B.D. was “saved” (barf). If Bette Davis was “putting curses” on her rivals etc; that would have absolutely been fodder for B.D.’s book. Only it would have been something like, ‘My mom was completely delusional and behaved as though she thought she was cursing her rivals and enemies’. Rather than 40 something years later claiming she was “practicing Black Magic”. I’m sure Bette Davis was a giant PITA as a mother and to live with. And most likely Bette Davis was a deeply selfish person because in order to have had the career she did; she would have to have been. She loved acting and she loved being Bette Davis. Her mom has been gone 32 years and she still can’t seem to stop talking about Bette Davis.
@@katrinaolsen2444 I wish you love. Take care.
How could you go thru her whole career & not mention Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?
I was wondering the same thing? My favorite is The Whales of August, however.
This is not an autobiography, only a 16 minute video. Critic in every crowd, perhaps accept what information IS given, not what isn't, so prevalent on maon stream news as the new norm, to have viewers complain. Sheesh. You do a video.
@@cindydufala7646 Really Cindy? You gotta go there? Imagine a 16 min vid on Elvis & his career & no mention of Hound Dog or Blue Suede Shoes or Love Me Tender? Same diff. And I don’t really care what you think Cindy. The question remains. -__-
in 1924, Bette did NOT sign on with M-G-M for 75 bucks a week...what a crock.
The reality there is no need to use Black Magic because Karma rules the world
Smart Talented Woman only a few in Hollywwod side stepped the Casting Couch !!
I loved her..
One has to dismiss Miss Davis's daughter's fictious book. Anyone who knew Bette knew the book was night more than a knockoff of "Mommie Dearest".
I don't believe one thing BD says. She and her husband have done nothing but use her mother's star status for monetary gain.
Loved her
The Queen of the Golden Age💜✌️🎥👏💐 I.J.S.
Wait wait wait....she was a WITCH !?! Oh my Stars and Garters...that explains so much...
100 cigarettes a day?!?!
Bette arrived in Hollywood via train and was not going to "met" at a damn AIRPORT: do your research, please.
I’ve always been fascinated by Betty Davis
Yeah she was bigger than life.
@@lindseycarribean5113 she really was
A pity she didn't make a picture with Hitchcock---as the villain of course.
@ Michael Harrington It’s true that she never was a Hitchcock villain, but she did make an excellent film in 1965 called “The Nanny” which was similar to the Hitchcock style. Very tense.
Bette was a known witch, and used it to get parts with it but probably a lot of people know about that already. I don't know what color her candle was, but maybe it was black. I don't know, I never saw it. I did try to get her to repent and get Saved but I do not think she ever did. She lived in Laguna Beach, which was near where I grew up and where my dad worked, but I only spoke with her a few times. She was not very social, my dad said she liked her privacy. She was much older and my dad told me to leave he alone, even though I was only trying to help her. Other than that, I do not remember much else about her.
You want black magic? Check out Betty Davis, Miles Davis' one time wife..her singing is the sexiest raunchiest funkiest you've ever heard.
She hated Betty, she insisted it was Bett, I thought he would know that
Anyone out there who really believes in black magic and witches needs to immediately call one of their former therapists, of which I am sure there are several, and make a new appointment!
Witches exist. Black magick exists.
