  • All-time Hollywood icons BETTE DAVIS and JIMMY STEWART united for the one and only time in what would be the last film before Miss Daviss debilitating stroke and quite possibly the last great film to star either of these two timelessly beloved and brilliantly talented actors. The story of a woman her parents decision to take their lives together, Right of Way was deemed too controversial for its intended network television broadcast and instead became a successful original HBO movie, earning Cable ACE Award nominations for both leads in the Best Actress and Best Actor categories.
    Despite the age and wear of the source VHS, I hope that fans of the immortal Miss Davis will appreciate this last breath of cinematic greatness from an actor without equal. Broadcast exactly fifty years after her first starring Warner Bros. star vehicle, the less esteemed Ex-Lady, Right of Way was also a treat for fans of the equally immortal James Stewart , and their pairing is afforded a worthy film thanks to writer Richard Lees, director George Schaefer, and co-star Melinda Dillon.
    In honor of Miss Daviss birthday, as well as a current legislative debate over death with dignity in Miss Daviss home state of Massachusetts, I hope that fans will be thoroughly affected by this exquisitely beautiful and legitimately comforting film experience.
    VIVA LA BETTE!!!

      John Hoy....I remember an interview later when Bette was talking about Jimmy Stewart and stated that she wished she knew him when he was young as she certainly would have “set her cap” for that wonderful man. You could actually see she just adored him after finally meeting him .

    Excellent film! Never saw this before. I was watching an old episode of Carson in which; Ms. Davis was a guest. She brought up two film titles; I never saw. Thursday's Child and Right of Way. I wanted to see them both. This one is better than good; with these two. Eager to see Thursday's Child now!

    What about their cats? Who'll take care of them now? its obvious from the end scene that the cats were just left to fend for themselves. As a cat lover myself, no true cat lover would do this without worrying about how their cats would be looked after once they're gone.

      Me 2, I would let them get mad @ me all they want, and would tell them that committing suicide is very selfish, un4given and suicide leads to Hell. Just call the suicide prevention hotline. In the Bible Jesus spoke alot about the Horrors of Hell. More preachers are talking Horrors of Hell,

    great movie, the only thing i have a problem with, is the lack of thought of what would happen to their cats, i've known many older people. and they would never do this without knowing who would take care of the cats,in fact most older people are kepted alive by the caring of their animals. in this film there isn't even a mention of what would happen to them.

      Maybe they put them in a kennel, or gave them away. Or ... it’s a plot hole.

      Agreed. No true cat lover would do this without making arrangements first about how their cats would be cared for once they're gone.

      They could've @ least given their cats to a friend, neighbor, or family members. Or taken to a animal shelter 2 🐝 vaccinated, fixed, and sent to a 4ever home. I would've taken in one or 2 cats, agree 2 have them vaccinated, spayed and neutered and I would give them a 4ever home.

    Steven Spielberg considered Bette Davis for the role of ET when he saw this but ultimately decided to go down the animatronic route despite the uncanny resemblance.
