BETTE DAVIS "DARK VICTORY" TRIBUTE

Spoiler Alert: You might not want to watch this video without first seeing the AMAZING movie....and my regrets that the YouTube upload cut off the last 10 seconds....:(

My tribute to one of the greatest motion pictures of the 20th century, Edmund Goulding's 1939 Warner Bros. film "Dark Victory", which The First Lady of the American Screen, Bette Davis, considered her best performance and favorite of her films.

The mini-movie presentation is set to one of the greatest songs of the 80s, "If You Leave" by Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark ("O.M.D."), from the 1986 film "Pretty in Pink".

Both the film and the song are available for INSTANT download on video and MP3 , respectively, at both iTunes and Amazon.com. Please support the entertainment industry by considering a digital purchase!

In honor of loved ones past, I hope that this short video clip captures the magic of "Dark Victory".....

VIVA LA BETTE!!!

I adore this tribute to "Dark Victory"! I like the clips you used and I would have never have thought of using an 80s Pop score with this either; it's really a good combination. Keep uploading, I love your work!

Aw, All about Eve brought me to Ms. Davis but she caught me right in Dark Victory!

Ms Davis was wonderful - they don't make up like that anymore (sorry but not sure if this music goes with the clips) but thanks for the clips
