What..the endless parade of reality tv isn't oscar worthy?? LOL Those poor Real Housewives and useless, vacuous Kartrashians are crying right now! American tv has turned to shit because the people there have turned to shit. Simple as that.
I had a Bette Davis box set (my favourite actress) which I lent to a friend -- when I asked if she'd finished watching them she said: "Oh I gave it to Pat as I thought she would see you before I did" When I asked Pat about it she denied all knowledge of it. SO -- one of these ladies has my box set but nobody is owning up to it. I AM SOOOO PISSED OFF. I don't speak to either of these people any more !!!!!
Bette is one of my all time favorites! She used a cigarette as a prop better than anyone else. (Not that I smoke or want anyone else to smoke.) To your good health!
She is my absolute favorite actress ever.As a person she was honest and fantastic not to mention very wise though she would deny it out of modesty.If rhere is someone like her we could be best friends!Simply put i adore her
@@chaz4471 I dont know if i can believe that B.D is telling the truth.Granted it is not for me to judge Bette and her daughters relationship.we will never know the truth of the matter.
@@alegnalowe3679 I hear you, I didn't want to believe BDs account, but her children have also said that Bette acted wildly crazy many a time and I've also heard many, many interviews of those who knew her well, many who knew her intimately, and from what they have said, I now believe that what BD has said in her book and in interviews is correct. I often wonder if Bette had some kind of mental disorder . . . or, it could be that the high amount of alcohol she drank had a huge effect upon her personality. She still remains my all-time favorite actress. I so love the old movies when she was younger. So beautiful, just captivating.
I love Bette Davis she is infact my favorite actress I continue to watch her movies over and over.She may be gone but certainly not forgotten. She will remain alive on film for eternity !!
The great Bette Davis who was a joy to watch. Also starring the ubane and talented actor John Williams, playing her husband. Both prior to Hollywood, were also great theatre actors.
YES....once a fine actress always one..i admire she kept working....lots of fine actors & actresses worked no matter.....like Van Johnson. Mom always talking bout Him at dinner clubs!! I was little girl but remember....wish Police would always be this polite more.......tfp!!!
I've seen an early video of Humphrey bogart and betty Davis in it They BOTH didn't act like they did later. She had a part of bogart's girlfriend, and he was more like Jimmy Stewart
"Irene, is this true? " How would he or any of us know? I chuckled when the husband asked his wife that . She is, after all, a serial liar! This was a rather strange story......John Williams is an underrated actor. Bette Davis is , of course, grand...loved it when upset and crying she grabs his handkerchief from the front suit pocket! Such a natural. The best there is.
I met Bette Davis , she was my pt , I told her I always wanted to an actor , and she told with her peculiar accent " is never to late" she was quite charming!!
@@willg4802 , of course she new I was kitting , and went pretty well along with the joke , the fact that I was her physician she didn't want to take a chance LOL!
@@julietteyork3721 ,this kind of women live in another dimension they're bigger than life and they can be to a certain point intimidating and that was Miss Davis !!
The Tara home from "Gone With the Wind" is used in the opening sequence of this TV Show. It was sold and the remaining parts shipped to Georgia where they remain to this day stored in an old barn. Hopefully one day it can be restored to how it looked when used in the David O. Selznick movie. The home was sold to Senator Herman Talmadge and moved to Georgia in 1959. This show was from 1957 and probably one of the last shows to use the set for a TV Show prior to its' move back to Georgia.
This is a tribute to Bette from her old film In This Our Life, when Bette was still pretty young. It's another hit and run story and Some of the dialogue is even the same. She's unforgettable in the film
Thanks sooo much for posting these great gems of tv...What a great " husband" he loved her so!!.wish i had a man like that....lol....great actor !John Williams..& awesome Bette Davis....thanks fr Texas
Bette Davis was one of the great actresses Of old Hollywood. It's a shame more producers didn't put her in more movies as she got older, and I don't mean movies like Baby Jane or Sweet Charlotte. But I wouldn't like the way Hollywood changed for the worse.
Beautiful.The great Bette Davis on TV WOW!!!!!.Loved it immensely. Thank You for posting this great drama.Mrs. Davis always superb in her movies. Mr. John Williams was great too.Loved him in "DIAL M FOR MURDER" with Grace Kelly.
Thank you for uploading these Bette Davis movies. I miss those old movies. I don't know why the stuff they have on T.V. now just does not make me want to get some popcorn and soda and sit back for a night of T.V..
I remember watching this several mos ago......ends GOOD.......i can relate 2 her character...not an actress...but poverty stricken right now& single...blessings but very lonesome....wish i could meet a man like THIS!!!.....Poor Irene " in this short.....but does end good
She looks good here! I love everything about Bette - including the fact she allowed herself to look plain or even unattractive, if that's what the role required.
I have been a fan of her's since I was a child.. I read her bio that I found on the campus of "Loyola University" in New Orleans,LA back in 2004. When her contracted expired from Warner Bros..pictures/studios .. She placed an ad in the LA Times in the 1950's and caught some slack for it.. Movie actor's from the 1930's-1960's never did t.v shows..due to a stigma..
I collect old TV guides and saw this in one (Sept 1958 Fall preview). It sounded interesting so I looked it up. Well worth watching. It was a re-broadcast. There is such a wonderful storehouse of films & TV shows out there. Thanks for posting this terrific bit of TV's early days.
That exterior of that house is famous for the 1960's t.v show .."The Big Valley" starring the late great Barbara Stanwyck ..Linda Evans,Lee Majors, .. John Williams I know his his work very well.. He co-starred in "Midnight Lace" with Doris Day,Rex Harrison .. he was the detective..
Ohhh! How I simply adored Bette Davis in this role! She was sooo fantastic in whatever she played in! She was greatly talented, and so believable! However, Shirley Temple was and will always be my favorite star, with dear Bette coming in at second for me! I LOVE these vintage shows you present!!! TY!!!💓
Probably without any doubt the most aspiring actress of her time don't know of any actress today that could hold a candle to bettie thanks for the memories

Hard to believe that there was a time when you could watch programs on TV that carried the same quality as an Oscar worthy film
😂
@lindaeasly5606 So true. This has the quality of a full feature film. TV once gave the viewer excellence.
What..the endless parade of reality tv isn't oscar worthy?? LOL Those poor Real Housewives and useless, vacuous Kartrashians are crying right now! American tv has turned to shit because the people there have turned to shit. Simple as that.
And they were free
Well & truly said!
I had a Bette Davis box set (my favourite actress) which I lent to a friend -- when I asked if she'd finished watching them she said: "Oh I gave it to Pat as I thought she would see you before I did" When I asked Pat about it she denied all knowledge of it. SO -- one of these ladies has my box set but nobody is owning up to it. I AM SOOOO PISSED OFF. I don't speak to either of these people any more !!!!!
Her desire to work brought her to tv which was considered a step down, especially then. Set her ego aside. Amazing
Something with Bette I’ve never seen before! Yippeeeeee!!!!
Her voice was so distinctive in this little play.l guess every one was lying. Accept who done it.
Bette is one of my all time favorites! She used a cigarette as a prop better than anyone else. (Not that I smoke or want anyone else to smoke.) To your good health!
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯💜
So what IF you did??🙄there are LOTS of other things "bad for your health"😳get real....
Love Bette she was a rare jewel, cant take my eyes off her when she's on screen.
Her daughter finally admitted that her mother was a witch. Very sad
She is my absolute favorite actress ever.As a person she was honest and fantastic not to mention very wise though she would deny it out of modesty.If rhere is someone like her we could be best friends!Simply put i adore her

What a treat that Bette and John Williams fit to work together.
There's no-one like Bette, that wonderful clipped diction, such charisma and a joy to watch. Wonderful stuff!
Bette raised the bar on anything that she lent her name to. Brilliant !
She is just simply MAGNIFICENT!
Amazing. What a timeless talent she was. Her performance so overrides the dated, corny material that she makes it all look good.
I love Bette Davis she is infact my favorite actress I continue to watch her movies over and over.She may be gone but certainly not forgotten. She will remain alive on film for eternity !!
This was lovely. When one thinks one has seen all the body of her work, these television shows are a real treat.
I just love her voice! Her pronunciation is perfect!
Certainly No Mumbling with Bette Davis or Joan Crawford ,,,,True Actresses,,,,,,,,compared to these days ,,Mumble Mumble,,,,,,
New England accent?
Bette Davis is Mannered, slightly psychotic but very able and entertaining...And...Love John Williams...love this actor.
Mrs Davis the oueen of cinema back then I loved her in All About Eve.
YES👌🏻❗ "Buckle up it's gonna to be a bumpy ride". I've also seen "Fasten your seatbelt ...." ❓🤷🏻♀️, either works. But why❓
She’s only 49 in this movie! She looks beautiful! 🌹
The great Bette Davis who was a joy to watch. Also starring the ubane and talented actor John Williams, playing her husband. Both prior to Hollywood, were also great theatre actors.
First time seeing this. I thought that I had seen everything by Bette Davis. What a treat. I loved it
I always have Loved Bette Davis. My favorite movie of hers was The Letter. Superb!!!
Love The Letter!!
Love that she kept on working. Few films offered, so she was smart & took these TV roles. An ACTOR must ACT.
Michael Totzke The Whales of August was very good...
Imagine how excited tv viewers were to see Bette in an original work. She was probably criticized for it.
YES....once a fine actress always one..i admire she kept working....lots of fine actors & actresses worked no matter.....like Van Johnson. Mom always talking bout Him at dinner clubs!! I was little girl but remember....wish Police would always be this polite more.......tfp!!!
She did the lying eyes moves flawlessly.
John Williams and Bette Davis lift up television. Lovely.
Another Bette Davis gem. Please post any other of her appearances on TV dramas. This one was great.
She was involved in a hit and run in one of her classic movies.
Or was she...😉
The movie was “In this Our Life.”
@@julietteyork3721 I think they left the name out as not to ruin the movie for others who’ve yet to see it. 😉 “One of her classics” indeed!
There never was or never will be again A BETTE DAVIS. Fans wanted Bette Davis to be just like she is in this little TV film.
Surprise ending. Bette Davis was a treasure. Thank you!
Omg she's so crazy her eyes tell it all and I smile when she first comes on the scene right to the end.. only one of a kind
I've seen an early video of Humphrey bogart and betty Davis in it
They BOTH didn't act like they did later.
She had a part of bogart's girlfriend, and he was more like Jimmy Stewart
Intrigue, deception, guile and subterfuge. I LOVE IT!
Thanks for posting, I love any movie with Bette Davis
Did you ever see the nanny? Truly scary and my favorite of her roles
@@RainsWorldVegasSlots Oh yeah, that movie WAS scary! Scarier than Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte or Whatever Happened to Baby Jane, for sure.
Such a delight to watch that great actress.
"Irene, is this true? "
How would he or any of us know? I chuckled when the husband asked his wife that . She is, after all, a serial liar! This was a rather strange story......John Williams is an underrated actor. Bette Davis is , of course, grand...loved it when upset and crying she grabs his handkerchief from the front suit pocket! Such a natural. The best there is.
Guess we’ll never know who was lying to protect who?!
I met Bette Davis , she was my pt , I told her I always wanted to an actor , and she told with her peculiar accent " is never to late" she was quite charming!!
hector diaz “is never too late”...LOL! Sounds like a catty dig as much as it does encouragement
@@willg4802 , of course she new I was kitting , and went pretty well along with the joke , the fact that I was her physician she didn't want to take a chance LOL!
It must have been fascinating to know her.
@@julietteyork3721 ,this kind of women live in another dimension they're bigger than life and they can be to a certain point intimidating and that was Miss Davis !!
@@hectordiaz7493
I can imagine how that would be the case.
Wow, I wasn’t expecting that ending. Excellent acting
Love these little Bette Davis gems! Keep them coming!! Cheers!!!
I second that, these are wonderful!!!

Bette Davis was one of the great actresses
Of old Hollywood.
It's a shame more producers didn't put her in more movies as she got older,
and I don't mean movies like Baby Jane or Sweet Charlotte.
But I wouldn't like the way Hollywood changed for the worse.
Love these short little programs of Bette Davis. They are fantastic. Thanks for posting. Enjoying them very much.
Who else's Mother always said "when you tell a lie, you'll have to tell another one"?

What a clever, cheeky thing to do. She was such a force.
@@barbarajackson9022 My mom's fav actress. As a young lady, my mom even looked like her.
Yes, she was proud to be hideous in BABY JANE.
Thanks Alan for posting these Davis shows. During the fifties, Bette sometimes had better opportunities on TV than she did in films.
Anything with Bette Davis is worth watching.
One of the greatest actor that ever lived,I have not seen any female actor that's better than her yet.
i so agree , she is a 💎 ! and please keep them coming !
Short sharp and sweet... What a pro she was 👍
She was great and àlways watchable miss her
