[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 308591, member: 5079"] TCM did a [URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsQK22iv4fw']biographical documentar[/URL]y on Bette in the early 90s, hosted by Jodie Foster. [URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lril4RLOCIw']STARDUST[/URL], narrated by Susan Sarandon, is supposed to be good, but I haven't seen it. I wish Davis had lived long enough to be interviewed on INSIDE THE ACTORS STUDIO or something similar; I'd have liked to hear about her approach to her craft. (Although actors of that generation often weren't very good at explaining [I]how [/I]they acted, since their techniques tended to be more outward than inward.) Bette's final years were unusually sad, being hit with so many health issues in a close time period. She honestly doesn't even look that bad in that screenshot, but the way she dressed and was made up in her last years kind of made her look like the Madame puppet. I suspect it was to distract from how frail she was, but it really made her look [I]more [/I]frail.
