WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE?

Holiday for Freudians, as the screen’s greatest sadist teams up with its greatest masochist: grotesque ex-child star Bette Davis fills those empty hours by tormenting wheelchair-bound ex-screen idol sibling Joan Crawford. A poison-pen letter to Tinseltown that makes SUNSET BOULEVARD look like a love note, WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? locks viewers into the decrepit Hancock Park mansion with the Hudson sisters, former child actress Jane and her handicapped sister, Blanche, whose own stardom was cut short by a freak “accident.” Pungent Gothic atmospherics and the duet performances of two divas who violently detested one another make for a queer camp cult classic whose venom remains deliciously poisonous.

"The best time I ever had with Joan Crawford was when I pushed her down the stairs in WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE?" — Bette Davis
