Iv'e seen it a good few times before but it's a perfect choice for a lazy afternoon when it's too hot to do much else. Bette Davis is marvellous. Gladys Cooper had a fabulous line in loathsome tyrants. I see Dark Victory is or was also on this afternoon, so hoping to catch up with that one too tomorrow.

I am watching. It’s fab. Bette is her usual great self.

Coming up to the big scene at the end.

Smoking has never been so stylish and I hate smokers

Yes! One of my all time favourites. Did you see the show before it? Lots of interview clips of Bette Davis over the years? Think it might have been called Talking Pictures. She was a very good interviewee, very funny!

No, I must catch up with that too. I'm on catch up so I've got quite a bit still to see. I have the tissue box to hand ...

I happily sat through both and had never seen either before.
DH had a snooze then awoke to say Wow these old films are crap aren't they ? And whilst I had whiled away an afternoon quite merrily I have to agree that the melodrama was way OTT in both.

I am a big Bette Davis fan. I must have watched everything she is in. I do love the old movies from the 1940s. No cgi, no sex. Just a good story.

Jezebel? Bette turned up in a red dress and it was the most shocking thing ever.

Yes I watched it!! Bette is great isn't she.
