Marked Women (1936) - This gets three stars--because what would otherwise be a mediocre gangster crime drama is made very watchable by the presence of Bette Davis as the “marked woman” of the title and Humphrey Bogart as a New York City District Attorney reportedly modeled on the gang-busting exploits of Thomas Dewey--particularly his take down of Lucky Luciano. Three Stars
Jezebel (1938) - This is one of Bette Davis’ most famous roles--an academy-award winning performance as a Southern belle during the Civil War. Supposedly it was a consolation prize for not getting the part of Scarlett O’Hara. She was spectacular--as was Harry Fonda, the male lead. The film is famous for this scene with a red dress--in a black and white film--and the amazing thing is that so well is that scene played, I could swear I could see that the dress was red. Five Stars
The Man Who Came to Dinner (1942) - This is a rather broad comedy centered on an eccentric overbearing character. Davis has a secondary role here as a secretary and straight woman--but is wonderful to watch whenever she appears--and the rest of the cast is strong. Not a favorite, but watchable and amusing, even if it starts slow. Three Stars and a Half Stars
Old Acquaintance (1943) - The two “old acquaintances” are Kit (Bette Davis) and Millie (Miriam Hopkins). Childhood friends, Kit is sensible, kind--and a literary light, while the narcissistic Millie following Kit’s success, becomes a writer of romantic trash. The film follows them through twenty years of friendship, is often funny and sometimes rather touching. (My favorite moment being when Kit finally gives Millie a good shaking.) Very enjoyable. Three Stars and a Half Stars
Whatever Happened to Baby Jane (1962) - I’m a fan of Bette Davis--really am. I usually find her compulsively watchable. But god, I hated this thing and couldn’t make myself finish it. Mind you, Davis was nominated for an Academy Award for her role in this--although personally watching her in this role made me cringe. The whole film was just too repellant and campy and weird for me. One Star
Stardust (2006) - This is a documentary about Bette Davis’ life and career, backed up by her archive footage and new interviews and narrated by Susan Sarandon. For me the interviews with Dick Cavett among others with Davis telling her own story are the standouts. A review in Variety called it “a crash course in Bette Davis 101” and a stark, clear portrait of a star who merited that designation in every sense, for good and ill. Engaging viewing. Four Stars… (plus d'informations)
