Your favourite Bette Davis movie?
I love All About Eve and I thought she was stunning in Of Human Bondage. What are some other great films with her? :)


There are so many. So far, I’ve seen 79 of her films. Besides the two you mentioned, I also like the following:

"The Cabin in the Cotton" (1932) "I’d like to kiss you, but I just washed
my hair."

"Jezebel" (1938) Second Oscar winning performance.

"Dark Victory" (1939)

"The Old Maid" (1939)

"The Great Lie" (1941)

"Now, Voyager" (1942) My all-time favorite!

"Mr. Skeffington" (1944)

"What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?" (1962)
