Her eyes,she is acting by her eyes ,sometimes she even didn’t have to say a word,such great actress
All time favorite.
A Bette Davis film has never let me down. This was a very heartfelt movie, with all of the realistic disagreements that families have.
Bull. You have never met a person in your life that acts anything like her. She is artificial, pompous, knowitall. Who the hell cares about who married who and the twins and etc etc. She thinks her poops dont stink.
I too love 💘 this film. It may be old fashioned however I am found of it !!!!! My 👵 grandmother was a school teacher, my mother a librarian, & my god-mother a school teacher as well!!!!
I cannot seem to wrap my head around a lot of her earlier films, however - this film is quite good !!!
Thankyou for posting it !!!
Yes, but who the heck drops in unannounced on relatives you haven't seen in ages?
@@jackjules7552 another family member was supposed to phone and let them know she was coming, however they must have gotten sidetracked and forgot or just didn't call. Of course it wouldn't be logical in todays times with Cellular Devices so handy, but pop ups wasn't frowned upon in those days, it actually was quite the norm!! I dislike them a great deal today i must say! Why couldn't you just shoot me a simple text saying "hey i will be in your neighborhood within the next hour or so, are you around, free, or mind some company!! That Easy😀💯😘!
One of the best Davis films yet! Wow loved it!
Wow this movie is fantastic
Betty Davis you were the Best!!!
They don’t make them like this anymore!!!

The older Bettie Davis acted in movies, the more I love her. She acted her movie roles according to her years perfectly and enlivened all her movies. I prefer her matured roles than her early ones because she enlivened her dramatic roles that viewers must watch till the end. Thank you, madam, you're the best🙏❤️
Thank you for this great movie. Bette Davis was one of a kind. They just don't make them like this anymore. Wonderful!
And no, there is no such thing as progress by destroying the environment
Wonderful acting!She puts her stamp on any character she plays!Her movies always have a message not just empty movies!
You have to give Bette Davis credit . . . she know how to speak her lines in a way that was natural (with the right inflections and tones) to make it seem real. She was a good actress and she did this part justice.
Yes she is a legend one of a kind ❤
Being the ol' movie bluff I am, I'm surprised that this was a Bette Davis movie I didn't know existed. Didn't disappoint. Bravo to Miss Davis & to Grover! Godspeed to you Miss Davis. 🙏💞🙏
I didn't know this excited Michelle uk
@@michellecowell4104......⭐Always the Star; Bette Davis!⭐

Me too! Must have been on the tele. I had never seen or heard of this movie. Cheers.
@@BOLLOCKS1968 ........I kinda thought that also, it being on t.v.
These old movies are so great now giving us a snapshot, a look back for older ones of how schools used to be. Those were the years everyone was proud of family, school and country. 🇺🇸
BetteDavis. such a great actor
Charlotte Vale Great story lines
Yes it was better America.
Pttpptt not really it’s the 80s not the 1950s ffs
Patrick3183 everywhere was better before internet & other tech ruined everything
I have a lifetime of respect and admiration for the great Bette Davis. Shes in a class all by herself. Awesome movie and cast. I will also add that i love the hair style from back in those days. Its called "finger waving" im sure it will never come back in style but its still unique and fits her perfectly.
I own this and watch it several times a year. I love that her grandson, who played Richard, got to share the screen with her at least once.
Thanks so much 4 sharing that. You must be a tried and true fan of hers. I love all her work too. Did u see her in 'The nanny'? Utterly amazing.
This movie made a whole lot of sense. No uncomfortable scenes. Family is everything. No one should sacrifice family relationships on the altar of wealth. Many thanks!
Amen
Best movie ever to watch on my first day of emergency lock down. Family means everything especially during the seriousness of the times in which we are living.

What a wonderful movie, years ago this was the way life used to be like. The years have taken there toll on all of us, Family life isn’t valued & material & progress have taken over our lives. Values have changed. Watching this movie I really long for the days of the closeness & importance of Family life. You realize what is important in life & yearn for those days once again !!!!!!
yes - those were the days - nowadays everyone's eyeballs are stuck to their phones or computers (gives new meaning to social distancing)
You all stay safe - watching good old movies like this :)
@@estellej1829 tks I do pray
And there was no Covid19....a admire those years....
Not sure what you mean. This family was not close. Everyone was arguing…..and alienated…
Cassie, your comment on this movie was nearly everything I too was feeling. I'm commenting 11 months after you did in the midst of the ever mutation of a pandemic. This movie touched so many relevant topics,including racism, or rather the lack of it. Mixed marriages and fighting corruption by those whom wish to take from us with trickery and deceit. thank you again for your comment. It was heartwarming for me to read.
Bette Davis was , always will be...one of a kind.... great movie.....its been said in here several times....there's nothing like an old movie....with characters and a story line....
Bette Davis my all-time favorite actress!
WOW! I FELL INLOVE WITH THIS MOVIE! Hoping every one watches the 2 parts off this movie.. You wont regret it. I love Ms Bette Davis. Then and now for her amazing talent..
Hello Diana,
How are you doing ?
Bette Davis was and still is one of my favourite actresses I've enjoyed everyone of her films she was one of a kind beautiful always wanted to meet her but never did her films were on every Saturday afternoons I'd swap shifts when was a nurse so I'd be able to watch her films RIP Bette 💖🙏💖 sweet happy days simple pleasures ahhhhhhhh 🌹
I was in tears seeing the end of the film - top performing cast and Bette Davis was the best as always 🍾🥂
What a joy to see a film that embraces your mind and heart with superb dialogue and acting! Great Movie! Bette Davis was one of the greats, very few can compare today!
How this teacher spoke and felt about books is me, all the way. Onto my third and final library building and no my stories and authors never do get dusty. 3 new movies from books: Disney took: Earagon: Inheritance Series a five book series. Christopher Paolini's heart felt work. Dragons. Also Justin Cronin trilogy the passage, the twelve & city of mirrors. Can't remember full name of trilogy but those are the names of the three books. also but never last is: brain fart can't remember but my mind does fade in & out. Getting it checked on 10/20 no worries.
Love 💕 Betty Davis movies!!! Great actress!!
*Bette
What a fantastic movie ,star cast and Bette Davis...it doesn't get any better than this!!! I can't believe I've never seen this before💖
Me either was a tv movie that may be why we missed it, wasnt in the theatre
rember the called( what Happened to baby Jane
Happened to Baby Jane outstanding Movie
Although this is ultimately a feel good movie, it doesn’t shy away from exploring the difficulties of family rivalry, resentment, hurt, misunderstanding, mismatch and loneliness as well as the rewards of kinship. The older Bette Davis lost none of her tremendous powers as a star player as she matured, and she gives a commanding performance, dominating every scene with her famous screen presence, her huge expressive eyes and her authoritative delivery in that memorably enunciated perfect diction. The ensemble cast of many recognisable faces also delivers. A real treat and a real lesson in ethics and the old fashioned family values that we yearn for today.
Thank you. You've said it for me!
Wonderful Bette Davis.
This film has it all to its best!
How I wish I could have met my great grandmothers sister. She was a dressmaker to Queen Victoria’s daughters. I have no photos and Buckingham Palace say they no records. I don’t believe that but am enjoying this movie. Thank you . I wonder if the film of Miss Dove was copied from this. Thank you for posting. Who thinks I should peruse my history from the Palace ?
Very outstanding movie she was very amazing Actor
Sure you should. I’m sure you’ll get help if you come across a nice person
@@gulson9105 Thanks that gives me confidence. Some years ago when I emailed I got a quick reply that their records don’t go back that far. After watching utube on various issues I think they have everything from day dot. It was nice of you to reply. 😊
Exciting, as well as, mysterious journey to found this family history...
If you so desire to pursue this journey, please keep us posted...
God bless..

I like the way she speaks, good oral English, music to my ears. So pure and authentic, not so much slur like American accent.
Yes i like the way she speaks too
There is a great old movie with her as anew Yorker and the way they speak called a Catered Wedding on you tube
Bette Davis is an execellent actress. She epitomizes the commitment of execellence and perfection amongst her peers in the industry. Family Reunion is a very nice movie to watch for the whole family. Kudos to all the cast. Marvelous!Love it!
bette davis was a fighter for sure she played the best characters. this has been the best movie, my parents went through something like this, where the city where i live took their place
This movie is the best movie I've ever seen every emotion came out of me watching this I thank so much for this beautiful Bette Davis movie great job 😀😀❤️❤️❤️
True family. Stubbornness, forgiveness and square dancing!!! Aunt Elizabeth was a mentor😀.
Bette Davis and her character(Miss.WINFIELD) in this movie reminds me so much of my mother!! Miss u
'my books dont gather dust' i wish more children will be able to say that these days
Another great Bette Davis movie. Fantastic story, she was a fantastic Actor
Smashing start to this movie. have just tuned in and I'm hooked Miss Davis you are the heart and soul of this.
I have seen various TV movies starring Bette Davis-I have to say that this is my favorite: she is as usual, she leads with noble regality. The boy who helped her in the movie was in fact, her own grandson. It was very sad when Davis’s daughter wrote her scathing memoir and her grandson[s] never saw Davis after that, due to the estrangement that followed. I had heard that Davis was very helpful supportive of her grandson’s acting. I admired Davis’s acting and her fortitude in movies and in life.
EXCELLENT movie!! I almost didn't watch because of the length. However, as the end drew near, I was wishing for more! Wonderful storyline, full of love, compassion, forgiveness,and even more. Awesome acting by so many talented people.Thanks SO much for posting this. It's a movie that I'll bookmark to come back and watch again and again! 🌈🌈🌈
I watched 2 times in a row!!!
Typical, the idiot generation with no attention span
I Always admired Betty Davis, She is a Legend. I've seen her movies from the Sixties to the Present, and look forward to the rest of this movie.
*Bette
If you've only seen Bette's movies from the 60's to present, you've cheated yourself of some of her finest work. I recommend: All About Eve,
Now, Voyager, All This and Heaven Too, Dark Victory. You'll love them.
Check out her 30's movies fabulous all of them
You should watch her 30s-50s movies, you’ll admire her even more 💖 I became a fan recently and tried to watch everything she had appeared in. Sadly I couldn’t find her two earlier films from the 30’s. She’s the best ❤️
Yes she's a legend one of a kind bless ❤
I absolutely enjoyed this movie. Bette Davis role was my favorite.
Fantastic movie with great heart. Ms. Davis was a force of nature. Everything she touched was made better by her influence. Such personal power... she stole every scene she was ever in. (For what it's worth, the resemblance of David Rounds, who played Grover, to Martin Landau is uncanny. He was a really fine actor.) The entire cast, completely believable, hit a home run with this one!
She amased me like a child in black and white movies a real star ✨ 🌟🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟Bette Davis💞
Great Movie! I've always loved Betty Davis movies but, I don't recall ever seeing this one before. Thank you for sharing!!
*Bette
I luv me some Bette Davis omg what an Amazing Talent she was Brilliant Actress she just gets into every character she plays my fav movie with her is Hush hush Sweet Charlotte 🔥 Rest Easy Bette🌹 thx for the great movies you left us 🔥🇨🇦
I LOVED this movie! Bette Davis is my favorite actress of all time. She never disappoints. Peace and blessings.
Yes she's a legend my favourite ❤
This was a fantastic movie! All the actors and actresses played their part to the fullest degree! GREAT MOVIE
I have seen Bette Davis play in all kinds of movies and so many roles she always has been a great actor I truly enjoyed this movie thanks
I finally purchased " pocketful of miracles ", starring Bette Davis Hope Lang, Glenn Ford, Edward Everett Horton, Fritz feed, Doodles Weaver, & Michael shaunessy. A cast of the Golden Hollywood era & great one's now gone! I forgot Ann Margaret! I've seen this once, but now my 2nd Time!!!!! Bette Davis's daughter played by Ann Margaret's name in miracles was actually Louisa. Of course, this is over 3 hours long, but well worth seeing twice!!!!! Thank you for the post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was a TV movie, I was very young when I saw it and it is a great movie. I am glad it showed up on UA-cam bc I will be watching.
Betty Davis is fantastic in every movie she has made.Thanks for letting us see them.
Love me some Bette Davis!! Never heard about this movie. Enjoyed it!! I especially want to give Richard and Grover a hug! Two of the sweetest souls!! 🥰🥰
Need a masterclass on all her movies, life, and carer!! RIH, Bette!! ❤❤❤ 🙏🙏🙏
A wonderful heartwarming story with a great script and memorable lines. great acting all round. Thank you for this gem.
I was absolutely THRILLED when she corrected that kid saying KA-RIB-BE-UN. Has always been one of my pet peeves. What a marvelous actress she was!
Hello Morin,
How are you doing ?
Same as the mispronounciation of Bangor, ME. People who aren't Mainers call it "Bang er. It's supposed to sound like "Bang gore"
What a great story! Ms Betty Davis does it again!
hollywood should make more wholesome movies like this one. not those sex fuelled, violence , hatred kind of movies..
Well said!!!!
Thats the Truth. more wholesome. movies 😊I agree
.my.faves. Bette Davis Dark Victory. and.all this and heaven.too
where the bullies get WAY to much time in them
THOSE SEX FUELLED MOVIES IS WHAT THE MAKE THESE PEOPLE RICH , QUE TRISTE
I’ve not been much of a Bette Davis fan, but this long movie is excellent.
I have watched almost every Betty Davis movie at least 2X . I godda say I like her acting in this film a lot.!!!
Wow,
she's one of the best female actress ever!

I love all Bette Davis movies!!! I have not seen this one before...Thank you for sharing! Her character is exactly like my Great Aunt Beluah! I called her Bu Bu... she loved me so much and I loved being around her and all her glory! She taught me so much that I never appreciated fully then, but I certainly have learned to truly appreciate through the years. Thank goodness for those who have given us treasures of themselves that give us what we need in our lives ahead! 💕
Hello Anna,
How are you doing ?
Ahhhhhh that was lovely bless you 🙏💖🙏
This is a brilliant movie. Im not good at watching movies because i usually fall asleep. So for me to sit and enjoy 3hrs of this movie is record breaking for me.
I felt led to watch this movie today after scrolling passed it over the last few days, because i thought that 3 hrs is way too long. Now im glad i watched it as it had a message/lesson for me.
I thank The Most High for hearing my heart today and showing me this movie.
Amen HalleluYah 🥳🥳🥳
Reminds me of my heritage and deep family roots. Rich or poor, we all loved each other
I can't even think of a movie now about a teacher traveling with one of her students who ran away from camp and parents nowhere to be found. Life was so innocent and trusting back in the day.
It is a movie after all. I don't think even in those days that would have gone unnoticed. The whole picture is idolized.
Yes... I also liked the part when the father equipes his daugter with the pistol...!
Those days are classic.. More value to human touch... More moral... Less technology...
Yes life is not what it once was....or what we might have thought it was.
i took the risk of spending three hours ten minutes and I feel greatly rewarded! Not only Bette Davies, all the prominent characters too have acted very well. THANKS
Hello Sobina,
How are you doing ?
I didn't took any Risk. I used the Office hours since I didn't have much to do today. I make the time a little worthy by avoiding gossiping around.
Great one. No such thing as a bad Bette Davis movie.
That is true Michelle uk 💯
Davis, herself, said she made a lot of bad movies.
You've never seen "Beyond the Forest"
I totally agree 100%
Ever heard of a little number called The Anniversary? I could barely finish it- I'd say that it's by far her worst movie. Beyond The Forest is like Dark Victory compared to it.
We will never see a Bette Davis again! She was one of a kind. Talent like that cannot be found anymore!
Excellent movie! Bette at her best. Thank you for posting 👏👏👏👏👍😊
Keep the old movies coming SO GREAT.
Hate no loathe sleazy crooked politicians! That said, excellent movie, great cast and so love Betty Davis!
Wonderful! I have always loved Betty Davis. Thank YOU so much ❣️
I Can truly say I’m a big Fan of Betty Davis! I grow up watching all of her movies🎥🍿My favorite movie 🎥🍿Was “what ever happened to baby Jane”!! Yes indeed I have watched that movie 🎥🍿A millions times!! I truly say as I watch Mrs. Betty Davis I can truly see 👀Myself in her!! The way she interacts with people, talks to people and feel about people. I have that Firmness Too myself. By Mrs. Deloach♥️
*Bette
Now voyager and all about eve, old acquaintances. Heck i love this tv one but i love ALL her movies.
Loved that movie. It remined me of the road trip I took last summer to visit my family, starting out in NC and ending in CA over a 5 day period. I drove as if my life depended on it. I also gave each household their Christmas presents in July. What fun!~M
I cannot imagine this little boy feel close to his former teacher than anyone else. This lady must have been a great deal and value in his heart.
The little boy was in real life Bette Davis' grandson.
Hey John Skyleir. In one sentence are two times. Since when is it right to write english language in that order?
Please let me know, ok?
And I thank you!

@@petermihacerar1137 What?! Although his sentences could have been written better, yours wasn't much better!
The grandson talks like he's 6 years old.
Now This movie I enjoyed very much. Bette Davis is brilliant in this role, but then again, she was brilliant in all her roles. Thank you for sharing .
Thank you so much for this movie! Bette Davis has always been my favorite actress and I never even heard of this before and Loved it!
Bette made so many movies that it is almost impossible to see all of them.
GREAT MOVIE , BETTY DAVIS is a GREAT ACTRESS as in all her movies.
You will never get another Betty Davis.these actors are unique era past never to be replaced ever.love her films grat actress u.k
At the beginning of the movie, I totally enjoyed seeing a showcase of personal Bette Davis framed photographs when she was a very young girl and woman. again thanks for posting this movie.
Oh, Betty Davis. Thank you for this beautiful movie. Blessing.
Aà
She was just brilliant. Who endeavoured to always make her characters convincing good, bad or evil. I loved her evil though.
Love this kind please let me see more thanks
Hahahaha yes me too she definitely was one of a kind a legend I get a tingling warm feeling watching her classic films ✌️
A great performance by all. Thank you. I enjoyed this back when it was televised. I enjoyed it tonight before work. I am reminded of our family's last holiday get together before my grandma got ill. So long ago now.
Never knew that Winfield was related to Betty Davis or the Lymans were part of as well. Which was part of my family my fathers sister; as born as a Sherman. I dated for years, Allen Winfield.
A beautiful meaningful movie. A lovely story.
As a huge fan of Davis, I never knew of this movie.
Neither did I
Neither did I. I am also a huge Betty Davis fan, love her.
Yes, I was never aware of this movie either. I love Betty Davis.
TV movie....I think on CBS. from 1981.
I remembered her along with Joan Crawford .
My sister and I used watch the old black and white movies with Bette Davis, we loved them. She is such a wonderful actress. Thank you for giving this movie to us. I have never seen it.
Thanks so much for a Bette Davis film I'd never seen! Loved it immensely!
Hello Deborah
Her facial expressions are priceless 🤣
Hello Micheala,
How are you doing ?
1:33:44
Betty Davis....love those eyes!...we should all speak with such diction. Thx 🎬
*Bette
I bet she was teased about her eyes when young.
I loved the movie, Bette Davis my favorite actor.
Fantastic film. Thank You.
Whoever posted these unseen, family friendly, wholesome movies with great actors....a million thanks. albuq., nm
Always happy tears watching this. I remember this from so many years ago. So happy to be able to see it again! Thanks for putting it up!
Better Davis always a fav. And one thing about her she didnt sleep here way to the top . She told them, how it would be . Last interview I saw her in. She was smoking her cigs ,in her 90 s and said the only actress she could not stand was , the one who played mommy dearest.
Rest in peace . Love n prayers
@Angel Eyes well 80 s 90 s she did look older . Actually . But still a wonderful person . And that was her last interview, I saw if her.
Joan Crawford was the woman portrayed in mommie dearest. They hated each other. But even she said Joan's daughter Christina, who wrote the book, was lying on Joan Crawford
As the other person stated, Bette passed away at age 81 - but she did smoke most of her life. Although she feuded with Joan Crawford, she really couldn't stand Faye Dunaway who played Joan in "Mommie Dearest". This was due to Faye's behavior in "The Disappearance of Aimee"; she'd hold up filming for hours for no truly valid reason per Bette - including once in a sweltering church which couldn't be air conditioned. Bette said that Faye's behavior then made Joan look like a professional in comparison; ironically, Joan considered Faye to be the actress in the 1970's whom she admired the most.
Yes it was joan crawford had the falling out with her daughter over a book and slept her way up.... Bette had style, grace, honor and SPUNK, the world benefits from her then and now.. She passed at 81 in 89 a 4 pack a day habit but she was a great actress, truly was an original just like the Duke!! To bad she never did a movie with him! Lol
@@wds179, she looked older because she had 2 strokes and cancer! Smh
I ❤ Betty Davis movie's I think this was a great movie and Betty Davis has made more great movies she lives on forever thanks for making great movie's Betty Davis
Bette Davis is, was and always be an iconic actress. She was the best.
Man this is so good, everything she does is golden
I love all of Bette Davis movies, this one I hadn’t seen. Love it. My favorite is “ Pocket full of Miracles “😊
Ironically the bus ticket meant to get Elizabeth out of the way made her reconnect with long lost family members who eventually contributed to her victory
And also ran into her future lawyer - James
Betty Davis is my favorite idol I love all her movies and this movie was magnificent ❤️
*Bette, & you're right!
I still remember one of my high school teachers, who gave me a book, titled " Farewell to arms" by Earnest Hemingway. And l still keep it, and occassionally read the passages as a tribute to her and sweet memmories of the days gone by.
That’s great joy! But how about this movie? Did you like it? 🤷♀️
@@LadyNicky007 Yes l did.
This was a great movie, although predictable but still very enjoyable. Bette as always tops.
The movie is wonderful
I personally like the very beginning …
Remind me of my mother,she was teacher of French and Latin language …teaching the very best and not so good students … they all loved and respected her…
It’s always great pleasure and pride for me when random people in the bus or in a foreign country ask me ,, spry madam , are you HER daughter 💞
I used to watch loads of re runs..Betty Davies was always one of my favourite actresses….she never disappoints..her voice is so distinguishable …
*Bette was so camp yet realistic! How can you not love her* 😂😂😂😂❤️💋❤️❤️
When teachers were respected and deserved it!
Every young generation must watch this.
Wonderful movie. I had forgotten what a great actress Bette Davis was.
Worth watching!
This movie portrays America I got to know and love!
Thank you for posting!
