I finally saw Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? and really enjoyed it. But mostly fell in love with Bette Davis. Growing up my mother forbade us to watch really anything with her in it, because she hated Bette Davis saying she was an evil woman. After doing some research (and watching some of Mommy Dearest) I think Joan Crawford was much worse. I really liked Ms. Davis's humor. She could laugh at herself, and gosh I think she was a beautiful woman.



I don't want anyone to think my mother was, well, "dearest" hehe, but it was tough as a child. But now as an adult I fully understand and recognize that I have the ability to realize she was doing it the best she knew how and I have chosen to let the hurt go and get to know my mother as an adult, and we have a much better relationship. It still is hard at times, but well worth it. She's my mom afterall.
