love, love, love Bette Davis - none like her ever - not then, and not now.
-
I agree! She's one of a kind and I love her.
-
@thewomaninthemoon Agreed. She is my favourite, along with Barbara Stanwyck. And she stands alone as the greatest star ever.
-
@GretaGarbo She had a very distinctive voice.
-
That's impossible: how can they guess Bette Davis so fast?
-
@weightfeather1 And I'm planning to re-read daughter B.D.'s "tell-all." I won't buy it 'new,' out of respect for Davis. But the "Daughter Dearest" tome actually just reinforces some of the things we Davis fans love about her anyway. One realizes it's about B.D.'s perspective, but still many amusing anecdotal episodes that must be accurate, as no lawsuit ever filed..
Ruth Elizabeth Davis was a real pistol. in fact, her own life perhaps her greatest role.

@gymnastix You must be a true Bette Davis fan, to have known such a relatively obscure fact of her history. I'm betting you have read at least one very good biography and/or one her two ("The Lonely Life," "This 'N That') autobiographies.
I especially like the few Davis books by Whitney Stine--"Mother Goddam" and "I'd Love To Kiss You."

@gymnastix So I urge all in similar straits, reading this, to follow suit--get your teeth examined. Even without insurance, there are public entities who will at least treat basics. Even dentures are better than an infection spread.

@gymnastix I know dentistry has progressed a great deal since then, am planning to go very soon and worry about payment later. Now physicians are noticing other diseases (including heart) may derive from dental infections gone unchecked. I've even seen public service television commercials addressing this very issue.
-
@weightfeather1 You are so correct about becoming neglectful of dental work. I have let my own dental issues go way too long, having lost my dental benefits, but also from a life-long phobia of dentists stemming from my very rough (and sometimes rude) childhood dentist--he should have been a Teamster instead of a dentist.
I bow down to the greatest actress that ever lived.Love you Bette!
