A Stolen Life is a 1946 American drama film starring Bette Davis, who also produced it. The film, based on the 1935 novel A Stolen Life by Karel Josef Benes, and was directed by Curtis Bernhardt. Among the supporting cast are Glenn Ford, Dane Clark, Peggy Knudsen, Charlie Ruggles, and Bruce Bennett. The movie is a remake of a 1939 British film Stolen Life starring Elisabeth Bergner and Michael Redgrave.
Lux Radio Theatre, sometimes spelled Lux Radio Theater, a classic radio anthology series, was broadcast on the NBC Blue Network (1934-35) (owned by the National Broadcasting Company, later predecessor of American Broadcasting Company [ABC] in 1943-1945); CBS Radio network (Columbia Broadcasting System) (1935-54), and NBC Radio (1954-55). Initially, the series adapted Broadway plays during its first two seasons before it began adapting films. These hour-long radio programs were performed live before studio audiences. The series became the most popular dramatic anthology series on radio, broadcast for more than 20 years and continued on television as the Lux Video Theatre through most of the 1950s. The primary sponsor of the show was Unilever through its Lux Soap brand. (Wikipedia)

Real Better Davis? Wow!!! Never heard her do a radio play before, so excited I adore her. The most beautiful woman who ever lived.
Lying here on my sofa with eyes closed you can picture the whole story. I've seen the movie version. This was just as grand if not more. Thanks. I thought I'd doze off but no. Miss Davis kept me happily awake 😁
She sounded so young. Just goes to proove nobody makes it over night. Lots of hard work and giving back (Radio drama for soldiers on the frontline)....
Nice story. When the sisters were out on the boat, it reminded me of the movie with Claude Rains, Mr. Skeffington. I think I spelled that right.
Bette Davis in Whatever Happened to Baby Jane❤❤she is still my all time favourite.
Now Voyager is my fave BD film.
Bette Davis, only the greatest actress ever.
How much do I love Bette Davis 🥰
Thanks for posting this wonderful radio drama. Bette Davis was brilliant.
Another brilliant radio play! Bette was wonderful in this - had me glued to the story. Thanks!
.
What a melodrama!
Thank you Chesterton Radio for bringing us such a wonderful play. First rate acting giving us the feeling of really being there. An amazing line-up. Esp Bette Davis + Glenn Ford. Just so enjoyable. Hi from Oz. 👇💜🙃
I ❤️❤️❤️❤️Bettie Davis!!! New Englander Yankee like my Nana- Banana Mollie Laba!!💯🌟🌟🌟🌟🕊️☘️❤️💜🪻🪻💐💐
Bette Davis...just amazing as always in anything she did.Thanks, John Australia
We used to have this show on Springbok Radio in South Africa
Bette Davis great
love your stories!
Hey, it's Betty Davis and a real soap opera.
What a Gem 💎 Thank You 🙏
grazie
It was also a film with Bette Davis also playing both parts, I think Robert Ryan played the artist .
It was Glenn Ford as the light house keeper who was her co star.
Thankfully, no soap hustling at the end of this one --
it would've trivialized the ending and so the production.
Envy, manipulation, jealousy and greed ... some just want it all. 🥺
Ohh Betty Davis
Did they ever do a radio adaption of Baby Jane?
Chesterton=quality.
AAA
I apologise but having been brought up in a generation of women who understand the meaning of equal opportunity in its entirety it is impossible for me to applaud a play such as this. I cringed all the way through it. Having said this I appreciate that some of the actors were icons in their time who trail blazed the road to open up to cinema as well as using female actresses for their talent and to be taken seriously and for that I am thankful.
What a boring world where all entertainment is judged by your sociopolitical constructed restrictions.
@@solophiesoterica Agreed.
New England Women like Ms. Bettie Davis just did what they did,and got it done the old- fashioned Yankee Way. They always spoke their mind,yet still were Ladies!🌟🌟🌟🌟💯
Glenn Ford is good, B.D. seems off = as if she's "walking thru" it for the $$$ = unusual for her, I must say.
Awful over-acting.
Some of it, I agree
IT WAS THE ERA OF OVERACTING........ PULLS YOU INTO THE DRAMA
I prefer over-acting to no-acting. You must be a zombified millennial.
The FX person did well with the sound effects .
Better sounds much younger intis than her movies .
