I was just commenting about "...Baby Jane"! Wasn't she unforgettable?! Wow, not a lot of actresses could have pulled that off! You'd have thought there was a hidden camera watching these lives play out in real time! The director, Robert Aldrich went on to direct her in "Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte" (which originally costarred Joan Crawford as well but who was replaced by Olivia de Havilland).
Bette Davis was an extremely good actress who had a great screen presence. Every movie and show was made that much better because of her no matter the role. A legend.
Wow! Betty Davis is an extraordinary actress! This short film was outstanding! The main character was very self absorbed. She had no human relationships other than employees providing services for her. It was sad to see her treating her dog as if she were a human! What happened to the employee was horrific.
Reminds me of some folks I see with their dogs. and animals today. Treat these animals like they are human, and some are treated better than some humans?
@@drumdad54sdl47but they will need people to take care of them when they get old, or sick it's really weird , calling themselves animal dads and animal fathers and animal siblings, too weird for me, and when they go to far with their stupidity,they take a chimpanzee as their family member and end up with a ripped face or body part.
Y’know, I thought the ending would be that Eddie would actually rob Miss Fox and she would identify him, but nobody would believe her because of last time, so he got his revenge. That would’ve been the perfect ending, I believe!
I thought she was done when she entered that alley. When the black cat jumps it made the cockroach run 9:00 mark, I watched it a few times at half the speed. 😂
Bette Davis was my favourite actress. I had a box set of her movies - lent it to a neighbour and when I asked for its return was told: "I haven't got it - I don't know anything about it". (Don't speak to her any more).
I found myself tearing up. Who doesn’t miss the late, great Bette Davis? She was so smart, saucy, sure of herself; a great role model for women. “I’d kiss ya but I just washed my hair!” (One of her funniest lines.) They interviewed a host of famous actresses, and several said she was their favorite actress, the one they emulated. I always thought she was uniquely gorgeous, too. They don’t call them “Bette Davis eyes” for nothing. Remember the song?
@@e.jenima7263 And he spent a year locked up for it. Do the crime and do the time. On top of that, his fiance died because he was a criminal, got caught, and wasn't there to take care of her. Except, he didn't do it.
Her greatest role was Baby Jane Hudson in Whatever Happened To Baby Jane which I first saw on t.v. in 1964 the first time it was on tv when I was 16 and I have seen at least 150 times since. It will be on tomorrow 3/2/21 on ME TV at 5 pm. eastern
@@geezermann7865: How could you ask such a question? Of course she was. They hated each other! How lucky you were to see it when it first came out! Amazing you haven't seen it since.
The guy she thought robbed her? Sure. Then when it came to be it wasn't him that robbed her, she (seemingly) went to the owner or whoever to get him his job back. Then she apologized, explained what happened and tried to help him by given him what at the time was a bit of a fortune. She did make a mistake and she owned up to that.
@@KimmyQueen that was no mistake, she purposefully framed him because he left her after she refused to lend him money for his sick girlfriend, miss fox was a horrible manipulative woman who got what she deserved in the end
@@AbrasiousProductions Agree to disagree. Yes she may have been jealous and that is what he thought happened, but it was him that manipulated her to get money from her...
@@poetcomic1: Thanks for letting me know. I’ll look for them! The only one I’ve seen her in was I think in the late 1950s or early 1960s on Perry Mason.
Loved those Betty Davis movies 🎥! Combined with Hitchcock suspense, it keeps the viewer on the edge of the seat. Having wealth doesn’t mean it’s ok to be stupid and assuming.

Don't complain about it being too long, or whatever... You do not need to read this. TY.] She did not deserve that end. Yes... She made a mistake. However, she tried to make amends. She shouldn't have said she saw him. She didn't see him. She was wondering why the dog didn't bark, and she had just experienced a guy demanding money from her for someone that had nothing to do with her and him being pissy about it. Yes she did not give him the money out of jealousy, but she was under no obligation to help him. She had already paid him for two weeks of services and he came and demanded yet another week's pay! He did not even ask her nicely for the money for his fiancee. He was a bum. I cannot blame her for thinking it was him that stole from her. She made an assumption that was based on real information about him. Yes he lost a year and yes his fiancee died and that is horrible, however, if her situation was really bad she was going to die regardless of him receiving the money or not. His fiancee's death, is not on Bette Davis' character. She apologized and she tried (if we believe her) to get him his job back and she gave him $500! He makes $70 a week. At the time, $500 would have allowed him to move on financially from this job into another town, but that is not what he wanted. Why even go back to work there? Clearly he just wanted revenge and didn't realize how much of his own attitude led to his problems. Once her body is discovered, guess what? He may run, but he cannot hide. No one is stupid, not even the detective that was grossed out by her behavior, he will know he did it. The media will assume there may be an alleged connection. If there is fingerprint testing at the time, he doomed himself to a life long imprisonment or death penalty because he was angry at her. He was angry at her because after giving him two weeks' worth of money, he came in, was upset about his fiancee, was rough and unpleasant to the person he was asking for money from, and couldn't understand why she would think it was him that robbed her. It was a good couple of episodes. Very enjoyable. I guess the lesson is to not make it obvious to men who work for you, especially if they are younger than you, that you are attracted to them. Don't encourage their flirting either. Also do not flash your money around. Don't walk in dark areas late at night. Be truthful about your account if you are a victim of a crime. It was appropriate to mention what had happened with the young man, that she found it odd that her dog didn't bark at a stranger, but she should have been truthful, that she did not see the assailant, she didn't hear his voice and couldn't determine if it was someone she knew.
Yeah but he better have taken Vanessa w/him and dropped her somewhere safe! Who knows how long she'd have been all alone w/a dead body and no one to feed her! Little Vanessa was a victim!💓🐕💓
She's what I call an actress , the so called actresses of today are nowhere close to miss Davis she was captivating even as a small boy I caught a glimpse of her on television she was like a magnet , I just simply had to sit down and watch her , I think the movie was called dark victory , and then me and my cousins where switching the only three channels we had back in the day no remote control and we stumbled upon what ever happened to baby Jane Hudson , even though the character of baby Jane was scary but also funny ,
With all that happened before, it made sense to her that it was him. He did not even ask her if she was ok. He showed no concern for her. His attitude was bad from beginning to end. The only mistake she did was say she saw him. She did not. She tried to make amends, she tried to help him and she actually apologized and explained what happened.
I don't know why there would be a need to make nasty comments regarding a pet and its owner, such as this character's. Just because you don't understand the bond and the love doesn't mean it's not real. The fact that some people find a pet to be a safer relationship certainly doesn't require your acknowledgement, and definitely doesn't deserve your scorn.

She was the most brilliant actress ever. She was amazing.
It's just a tv skit but she turned in a AAA performance. Excellent production, was on the edge of my seat.
I can watch and listen to her for hours. What a fascinating actress she was
Have you seen her in Dead Ringer? If not, you must see it.
maine living OH YES!! That is an addictive movie!!
Bette was also a completely captivating talk show guest, and so stylish!
Same here!
What a great movie !!
Watched it recently.
She’s definitely my favourite actress, I’m glad someone else loves her too !
One of my all time favorite actresses, she had this certain something about her.
Yes she did
Yes GUTS! And talent of course.loved her since I was a child and that was a long time ago😳
It’s the eyes. Even a song was written about them…😊
She certainly did
She had a bitchy attitude!
Great episode, great actress, my personal favorite. Very distinctive voice and mannerisms, they will never be another actress like her.
She had that “ Walk “ already which came to perfection in Baby Jane !

Can't see her without thinking, "Fasten your seatbelts. It's going to be a bumpy night."
That excellent British North American accent of hers is always a pleasure to hear.
It's called a Mid-Atlantic accent. Lots of actors then had it, including Katherine Hepburn.Also FDR and JFK. Marianne Williamson has a similar accent.
My great aunts had the mid-Atlantic accent, and they were from San Antonio, Texas lol. That’s how all old money families in the US used to talk.
“Come on Vanessa let’s not tempt fate” ..wailing scream 🤣😅🤣😅
James Congdon who played Eddie is age 95. Still alive. Born in 1929.
Won't be long before he ta takes that eternal walk down ( Hollywood Boulevard ) walk of fame-???🤔
The way she says, "I thought you were an applicant, to walk Vanessa." Brilliant. How she enunciated her words. Perfection. 4:18

Sounds like they believed what they were taught. Evolution.
Hitch presented very well in this episode
Bette Davis. The Greatest character actress that ever was. If she is in it, the movie, a tv show or anything then it is a good one!
Hitchcock directing Bette. Couldn't be better. Classic Hollywood the real deal.
Her friend and ex-co-star, Paul Henried directed this episode. Sorry to be pedantic!
She sure is in control
Strong woman . The one and ony Betty.... Davis.!!!!

I saw episode with Bette Davis two months ago. One of my favorite shows. The Door Man acted well too.
Love Bette
Bette Davis - the greatest actress of Hollywood! I just love her work!
She can definitely play an old biddy well. He voice is unmistakable, but I liked her best in Sweet Baby Jane w Joan Crawford 😳😣😰😈
Yes. Me too!
Ask my mom since a kid, Ms Bette Davis is the Queen of Hollywood!!!🙏👏🤗
Calm down.
I like Joan better.
As usual she domanates every scene. My favorite forever.
I would recognize Bette Davis just by her beautiful laugh. RIP Bette Davis🌹❤🏆🎬🌺
Such a satisfying ending

Great episode!! Goes to show never jump to conclusions
Absolutely love this show
You lied on someone put him in jail, took his freedom then turn around gave him $500. Smh.
Did she lie? I thought she had a false memory of seeing him take the ring.
$500 in 1959 is $5,028.45 in todays money.

How come you don't play the show from the beginning
The policeman is the same actor who played the obnoxious real estate client in “Psycho” who Janet Leigh stole the $40,000 in cash from.
YOU'RE RIGHT ! I thought he looked familiar.
You may have just won a million dollars Eddie McMahon
I don't understand why she was trying to make him be guilty. I feel she know he didn't do it. That is what I didn't like about it.
With all that happened before, it made sense to her that it was him. He did not even ask her if she was ok. He showed no concern for her. His attitude was bad from beginning to end. The only mistake she did was say she saw him. She did not. She tried to make amends, she tried to help him and she actually apologized and explained what happened.
I think she liked him. In Part I, her demeanour changed once he mentioned that he had a fiancée.
I wish I could watch the whole film
Any idea where to find it on RUclips thank you 🙏
This an Alfred Hitchcock episode. Check RUclips, HULU, or Prime.
She was right about Eddie all along.
Classic perfection ❤
