  • I totally agree. Thanks for the comments. William Wyler's direction of this scene with the long take and the camera frozen on Bette/Regina's face is brilliant.

  • Bette was such an amazing actress. Just look at her at 1:56 when Herbert Marshall's character is having a heart attack. She kept both her eyes and her lips so tight; like a stone face! And as he goes up the stars she continues that thing with her mouth were no milk of human kindness can seep out! Great actress!

  • well said! i can see the last decency battling with her inherent mercenary nature. great moment of acting.

  • I don't know how to upload. I'm not too swift on this PC. I thank you for the classics which we will never see again, other on this uploads or possibley the library. Bette Davis was just one of the many excellent actors. So many. Can someone upload a movie starring Edward G. Robinson? I am 82 years old, and I cannot stand the crude, filthy language of today and the open sex. Who do the kids have as a role model? I can't think of one.

  • 1:56 -

    she was so great,she could really play a cruel role!

  • Her ability to show no compassion was perfection! then transform

    into a frantic and caring wife again was magnificent. This kind of acting

    is rare and timeless indeed. Long live the memory of Bette Davis.

  • Hey have you noticed that Dennis Haysbert appears in Little Foxes he is one of the Black extras, moving the furniture. He is th one nearest the wall but check this out he wasn't born until the 50's so say!. If you don't believe me take a look for yourself, could he be a vampire like you know who?

  • I think this is her greatest role...Thank you......

  • NO ONE was better than Bette Davis when she was up to no good!

  • the bitchiest bitch of all bitchiest bitches ever

  • No other actor can touch the brilliance in Betty Davis. I've seen a lot of Great Movies, she was always on TOP in every movie. I Love Betty Davis

  • My favorite scene!
