Michale was brought up by both his parents .I think Gary merrill I'll treated BD and vette never stood for her .maybe one of the reasons why she resented her mother
" THE CATERED AFFAIR ", is a brilliant movie tour de force by Davis and a movie never mentioned, co stars: Ernest Borgnine and a BRILLIANT Debbie REYNOLDS playing their daughter.
I just read your comment and I agree. However great her other films, she most certainly deserved an Academy Award for The Letter. It was, in my opinion, the best performance ever put on film. Incredible.
Have to agree she should have had that Oscar hands-down...best performance ever put on film, however...I don't know...you might have to watch many many more films...
Davey74Boy which goes to show you how corrupt the Oscars are. She was robbed of those awards on several occasions because people were jealous or they were trying to prove a point or whatever. Joan Crawford literally campaigned against her on Baby Jane and blocked it. And the year of all about Eve was an obvious scandal. Although admittedly Gloria Swanson in Hollywood boulevard was a very strong and serious rival. I suppose it was just one of those tough years but if ever there should've been a tie, it would've been that year. Swanson and Davis should've both received the Oscar that year, if the awards were managed and governed fairly.
Beyond the forest was fantastic, she owned that part: All about eve, while fantastic, was not the comeback, but an end to her larger than life roles- shed reached a summit and would seldom reach it again sadly, Baby jane being the exception....she became a "guest" in future films, with The Nanny and The Anniversary the only roles offered that gave full performances....she still shinned, but had such bad films to shine in, miss her
All About Eve was a phenomenal role for Bette Davis and what should have been her 3rd Oscar was stolen from her. Baby Jane should have been her fourth!
It is so weird to hear how Bette Davis was like the Margo in “All About Eve,” because Bette said she and Gary split because he “married Margo” and not Bette.
In the early 1970s i was living in los Angeles i used to work for sears and my only hobbies were learning languages and buying movie stars paper back biographies i was told by this clerk in a book store in hollywood that Bette Davis was going to be at the bookstore during the weekend, i could not make it to the book store during that particular weekend so my only chance to meet one of my idols could not become a reality that particular saturday i asked my boss if i could take the day off and they say no that was one of most frustrating events in my (younger years) back then....
Yeah and this is exactly what`s wrong with casting Bette Davis in the role. Sure we CAN see alot of `your mother` in the role. I met Davis. Twice. I was a Plain Jane reporter AND a feminist too so Davis wasn`t alarmed and the claws didn`t come out. But to use Davis, who verged on the psychotic, as a role model for this part is insane. They`re turning the film into a play earmarked for the London stage and once again they`re nailing The Careerist by casting Gillian Anderson an actress similar in type (not however to say psychotic) in the lead role. Claudette Colbert was originally cast and if she had played it the part would have taken a different turn. True. Colbert was involved at the time in a hot affair with Dietrich but her brand of gayness was not the disfiguring kind. Davis`s was the disfiguring kind and she herself was disfigured by the men who couldn`t bear her genius and/or her success. The whole scenario of Divs (conceived and misrepresented by men) should be reevaluated and reconceived instead of repeating the Bi+ch narrative. I myself would like to have got the chance to direct the play. I certainly would break down the character and the scenario to show exactly how the Conspiracy Theory operates. Sick really because it`s an undeclared war against women. It`s been going on for centuries. It`s claimed many victims. And yet it continues unexpressed and unacknowledged. Why? Because there`s always the `Eve` character ready willing and able to nail the `Margo` character..to take her place, her man, her script, her role..everything!

Her son is a wonderful man and a champion for his mother,unlike his sister.
Lovely to hear from her son, who seems stable and unlike BD Hyman, believable.
Michael is a prince
bojack40 Love her son

I believe B.D.
@@EYE_GOTCHA I don't. All the lies that she's telling. Saying that her mother was into witchcraft.

Just found part 4 of 6.
What a wonderful and interesting story Bette Davis had.
Thank you so much for sharing!
I know I would be proud of my mom if she was this fantastic movie star.my mom looks like Bette too!big hair and eyes!!

Oh yes! Love that movie
Yikes! Margo should probably have been her fourth or fifth Oscar...The Letter 1941?Absolutely!
Personally, I think Davis should have won her third for Now Voyager, fourth for All About Eve and possibly a Fifth for Baby Jane.
I could definitely agree with that, and add The Letter (1941) as well...

:D Thanks for this! Bette was something, wasn't she?
I loved Bette Davis in Jezebel.
Gary and Bette? Like a more theatrical Lucy and Desi! loved each other but couldn't live with each other in the end
Kirk Barkley - Desi was a Pisces & Lucy was a Leo - Bette was an Aries & Gary a Leo
Yes: interesting to note those facts.
All About Eve was a phenomenal role for Bette Davis and what should have been her 3rd Oscar was stolen from her. Baby Jane should have been her fourth!
David - Bette Davis said she was nothing like her character Margo Channing in real life.
John...That may well be but she still played the part so well. I think it was one of her finest performances.
Bette would agree with you!
They dont give Oscars to the BEST actress and actor !!!

Betty Davies must’ve been a very hard woman to live with

The whole world loves her in that role.
Sandra Shevey. How does one "verge on the psychotic?" And how did Davis?
...You sound crazy.
