All About Bette Davis



I recently flipped on TCM right as a movie called All About Eve was beginning. It sucked me in and I watched the whole thing, later to discover it was on my top 100 list. How convenient.


The voice-over annoyed me in parts but Bette Davis (above) blew me away. What a fabulous actress! She was so real. She wasn't the usual glamour leading lady of the era nor was she some other archetype. She had a lot of dimension. I highly recommend checking out this flick. It's about fame, and relationships, and most importantly keeps you wondering about people's true intentions right until the last 20 minutes.

I'm back (The Silence of the Lambs)

Sorry for the big gap in posts.








So I finally saw The Silence of the Lambs. Spoiler alert (it is 17 years old though)....







Hannibal totally cut off that guys face and used it as a mask! Holy crap, yes he did.





That was crazy.
