- Ruth Elizabeth "Bette" Davis (5th April 1908 - 6th October 1989) was an American actress of film, television, and theatre. Regarded as one of the greatest actresses in Hollywood history, she was noted for her willingness to play unsympathetic, sardonic characters and was reputed for her performances in a range of film genres, from contemporary crime melodramas to historical and period films and occasional comedies, although her greatest successes were her roles in romantic dramas.
Happy Happy Birthday Bette Davis! You were one of greatest actresses of the 20th Century! Your films still live! Thank you for all those films and performances you left behind.
You've said it girl it's 👍👍👍👍up all the way from me,rest in peace, Bettie,god bless you amen ⭐💙🐦,
My number one best actress in the history of film, she was so fascinating she was a true star.
The way she handle the interview , you can tell that she is one of the brightest actor at that time in Hollywood.
Wow. Still someone to look up to. Intimidating presence filled with wits, charm , straight forwardness , Good for you Bette . One of a kind woman .
I love the fact that she was so natural. An amazing talent !!! who we don't see very often. Just fantastic.
Has anyone noticed how well mannered and well spoken her 11 year old daughter at the time was? A far cry from today’s children/teens
Yes but then she grew up to write a horrible book about her mother, while she was still alive! Hard to believe, seeing her here.
You are SO SO right!!
@@carollund8251 Wasn't that Joan Crawford?
@@susanb2015 No Christine Crawford wrote a book about her mother Joan after she died. Better Davis' s daughter wrote one while her mother was still alive. She is a religious nut too and hard to believe a lot of what she says.
@@carollund8251 I'd never heard of that book. Must not have been good.
I think Mrs Betty David was one of the greatest actress of the golden day of Hollywood It amazing that this great actress died 30 years ago and we still can see this interview that they gave her over 60 years ago. I really miss her a lot It’s not like the actress of today a lot of then they don’t have talent She was really was a movie star not like the actress today
BETTE DAVIS
Absolutely agree with the above.
Natural performance, voice and eyes... 👌
Great actress, one of my favourites.
Bettedavis isymagnificent wish l could purchase a book with a history of all of her films
Always loved her, she very unique.
I think she is very gracious and insightful in this interview. Her daughter wrote a scathing tell all book about her. I’ve learned to separate the person from their personal life. We have her performances to remember.
A Legend
Davis always gave sincere answers in her interviews, throughout her career. You can see it clearly in her initial reaction to the questions. Nothing phony. Sometimes, though, she did say things that weren't true but she thought were true.
This is the real meaning of star.
Absolutely
i guess I am pretty off topic but do anybody know a good website to watch new movies online?
@Vincent Adriel I use flixzone. Just google for it :)
@Vincent Adriel i watch on flixzone. Just google for it :)
Best of Bette - she's the REAL DEAL..How lucky are we to have her movies to watch - whenever...Good, honest & entertaining..
Interesting and 1st lovely interview!
Bette Davis’s voice was distinct, and unmistakable and for me excellent to listen to, which aside from her ‘ Bette Davis eyes’ powerful acting,was her main attraction to me as a young girl when I first saw her on BBC TV in the 1960’s when they were repeating her excellent movies. The Joan Bakewell interview brought out Miss Davis’s humour beautifully,! I was in the audience in Bournemouth in the 1970’’s when she invited questions and was asked when she lost her virginity! I was so embarrassed but her reply was priceless, ‘ the first night of my marriage, when did you loose yours?Fabulous response!! The audience response was a great round of applause 👏👍😊
A fascinating ORIGINAL genius = the likes of Bette will never be seen again.
Still, we are blessed with the words of the best actor before or after our time. This advice is timeless, and will always make sense. I love her, and miss her. Sooo Fun, thanks.
i loved bette davis such a good actress x
Love Bette! What a woman!
Very lovable off stage and on. COVID has me watching interviews and black & white movies.
Me too they are very good to watch ,not like movies today .
Still so elegant at age 89, wearing gloves, a diamond brooch and a suit with a matching beret on Terry Wogan in 1987.
As far as I can see there was not a role that B.Davis coild not play and superbly of course. She is one in millions and there will never be an actress with such grace, elegance, beauty and talent.

My mother had her first autobiography, I used to read it all the time when I was a kid.
She was one of a kind....
So refreshingly honest a fabulous actress. There will never be another like her. We are so fortunate to have Bette Davis in almost 100 films. A legacy she has left us for all time. Thank you for the wonderful memories.bob hope called her the 4th Warner brother.
Brilliant interview at the beginning. Very honest. Love the thunder too.
This is fabulous. .different interviews skillfully blended
One of the greatest actress ever 💜 no one like her 💜 I miss her.
A fabulous actress who didn’t settle for Hollywood OR A MAN! A true lady!
Very nice Interview.
There are 2 audiobooks on RUclips.
One is her biography..
And the other is called
The Devine Feud..
Both very good listens.
I never really liked Bette Davis but after watching several interviews with her, I do really like her. She is honest, humble, forthright and very intelligent. I wish I could have met her.
I always heard and read that Bette was a very difficult woman to work and be with. Watching this video proved otherwise. She is a charming, witty, and pretty much adorable and pleasant woman. She never dissed any of her peers nor say any negative about them. She was really one of the Hollywood's greatest dames ever... Sadly, her only biological daughter doesn't recognize that...
She did have that reputation but it was mostly the press - it seemed fair game to accuse her of being difficult but she said herself, and was often backed up by others, she fought for quality not for her own ego. A lot of stuff about her is forgotten, like her strong support for equality for black actors, for other actors who were getting a raw deal - Ann Margaret recalled Bette taking her aside and encouraging her to ensure she was properly lit, properly made up and able to shine - Geraldine Fitzgerald debunked her reputation when she worked with her on Dark Victory and did not, in fact, insist on being the centre of attention - there were many like minded ‘stars’ she worked with that became lifelong friends as a result. Bette didn’t seem to get along with vain or egotistical stars.
I no here I am again I've been looking at most if the interviews from when she was 40-50-60 -70+80 , looking at here here after having two strokes cancer and she's still going strong,she's not with us anymore but she's not forgotten,rest in peace Bettie your an inspiration to people of today especially me, god bless you Bettie amen 🌠🌈☀️🐦💙
Great attitude, honest
"It's the best fruit that birds pick at." Good observation, Ruthie.
Love her brains ... stupid thunder noise in the background in the beginning ... .and then bb..... I remain curious.. here's me at 52, she was before my era , yet I feel drawn to her. I love Betty's honesty and intellect.
Wish she was still here , such a beautiful honest woman .
I am so grateful to be able to watch these playback. X p.s from my bf profile ... that laugh she has is contagious, makes mine so much more acceptable lol .. r.i.p Bette x
Aries are like that very straight forward to the point .
Queen!
FANTASTIC POST!!!

BRAVO, VIVA LA DAVIS!!
Lovely complilation of clips.
my favorites actress from the golden era.of hollywood.myrna loy , barbara stanwyk, lana turner, jean author.
An impressive woman!!!
U never thought someday Betty's daughter would write a book about her life with her mother Bettie at the same time as Joan Crawford's daughter writer her book,i think it was cowardly writing those books when they died, rest in peace to Bettie and Joan to me I thought you were both great actresses rest in peace to both of you Amen,💙🐦☮️☯️⭐🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 god bless you both,🙏🌟
my all time favorite actress
Bette Davis was so extremely intelligent that she was beautuful because of it. So far no one can match her wyality acting, her enticing personna and of couse drop dead super acting. Ehst a pleasure.
She’s a terrific actress. I don’t blame for being pushy about plugging her book. The book was the reason she agreed to the interview. He’s a jerk. Terrible interviewer
Yes he was very rude about it.
The gentleman interviewing Ms Davis is a well known British actor Derick Bond who was in the great British film Nicolas Nickleby 1947
Love her wit and hearty laugh. Nothing pretentious about her.
Wow what a great lady love Bettie Davis
Loved her and still do.
She's probably my favorite actress of all time, although Joan Crawford and Barbara Stanwyck are also there. Bette was a spunky woman. I would have loved to have met her. Much more humble than she's given credit for.
I love her!! I LOVE her crazy laugh!!! 18:47
TRUE LEGEND
I ❤ Bette Davis, and I don’t believe a word her daughter has said about her, Bette was not an abusive to her, Bette was not that kind of women
I have watched countless interviews of Bette Davis, and watched interviews of BD her daughter she broke her mothers heart, she wrote My mothers Keeper 4 years before her mothers death and Bette was so ill, B.D Hyman should be ashamed of herself, you never ruined her name, she is still an Icon and Legend and loved and adored by many so your book was a waste of time
Nicely done...
Her film's in 1930's we're fantastic. Also very good looking then
God I love this woman some stories on what she tells you about them wanting to call her vingena draws 😂😂😂😂👍,her stories do have me in stitches where she went to a neighbors party and then she invited them to her dinner party and when it was over she turned around to them and said I never want to see you again you are the most boring hosts I've ever met and said good night and slammed her door 🚪🚪🚪😂😂😂😂😂😂god I love that woman she was one true classy lady and if she didn't Like you she would let you no ,that's why I like her she wasn't false and didn't care what people thought of her,rest in peace Bettie, love you girl your my inspection to all women like you, meaning not caring what others think good on you, rest in peace Bettie God bless you amen 🌠🌈☀️🌼💙🐦😘🌟🌹💕🙏💏👍
Bette Davis was a brilliant actor, in a time when women were meant to be girly. Good on her.
Great actress.
AH! GREAT ACTRESS
During the interview, she doesn't have the body movements she uses when she's acting. So interesting.
BD: i'd like to be a secretary.
bette: why don't you run along, darling?
B.D. = *fascinating* ...
What fun!
Curious why u blocked comments on Bogart?
They have to TOUCH YOU !! SHE was & IS my FAVORITE !! JUS ASK MY HUSBAND !! LOL LOL 😊😉😉
in a pack of cards there are 4 queens bette katherine Meryl and you have to pick a silent actress because its history so mary pickford is the other queen
She did well to say that she smoked like a chimney 🙏
Why are they interviewing her outside - in a thunderstorm?
Hm! If only she had known how BD would turn out! She SHOULD have just become a secretary instead of an 'author' and 'religious (cult) leader'.
Absolutely, ungrateful little witch. Her mom did a lot of things good things for her just to turned around and published her rubbish book. She is far from an author, cult leader yes! Good comment, take care!
Her daughter was a viper
I think it's so rude to tell somebody to run along
I got betty Davis eyes
Bette was 5O here. (first section: 1958)
She’s funny.
Dame Joan Bakewell in her youthful beauty. Was this about when she was having an affair with the then-married playwright Harold Pinter?
I am so torn about Bette Davis. She is definitely one of my favorite actresses and nothing will change that. There are so many stories of her being a bitch (and a whore) but in this and some other interviews I've seen she seems like such a lovely person, not too full of herself ( all actors have to be to a certain extent) , gracious, polite, classy, intelligent. And she seems like a loving mother. Looks can be deceiving of course, but she really seems affectionate and there is not a hint in the daughter's demeanor to contradict that.
Fast forward to many years later when this same daughter wrote horrible things about her mother, while she was still alive! Now I don't want to call her a liar just because I like her mom, but from the multitude of people who knew them and contradict her accusations, it does seem like she was just trying to sell a book. I mean, I love Joan Crawford's acting as well but I have always tended to believe her daughter's book " "Mommy dearest" ,perhaps as I can relate because I went through some of the same stuff with my own mother and her story ( in my opinion) rings true.
But what I really can't get over is how she sent her youngest daughter to live in an institution all her life. I had thought, when it was said " we couldn't take care of her," that she had some severe physical handicap, which, at least in those days, one could at least partially understand how she felt she couldn't handle the situation. But now I have read that " at 8 years old she was like a four year old" and that she "can't read and write" ! That sounds like a mild to medium case of mental retardation, and ( as the mother of a daughter with a cognitive disability myself) there is no reason in this world that she couldn't be taken care of at home. It does sound like she was sent away because they were ashamed. Or didn't have the patience. I have tried to be charitable and understand that that was common practice in those days. Beverly Sills, the great NY City soprano did the same to her daughter. I suppose they thought it was " good for them". But I can't help finding it terribly sad and selfish. Certainly they had the resources to hire a specialized kind of nanny. I mean after all , one was found even many years before, for Hellen Keller, it is not like they couldn't have found other options. It is very hard for me to get past it, I must say.
Im related to her by marriage!
выглядеть как ван лок ..
I want to say I love Betty Davis but a person who smokes 4 to 5 packs of cigarettes a day what to do about her breasts you shared I would guess that you would have to brush her teeth on very much and read some mouse with some kind of mouth wash possible for persons smoke that many cigarettes and not have a breath problem even though as an actress I thought she was magnificent I was reading an article about Clark Gable where many actresses refuse to do a kissing scene with him because of his breath was horrible he suffered from some very serious gum problems besides he wore false teeth I guess somebody actresses they play with them must have been sinuses especially on the set of gone with the wind water problems because of his breath he really heavy smoker I mention this because these people were magnificent actors and actresses and I think it would've lived Wawona that they would not indulge the smoking
