This movie works because inside every late middle aged person, who feels that life has not sufficiently rewarded them for their talent and work, has a little bit of Baby Jane inside them...
Although they hated each other, the two of them together was pure magic.
If they did not respect each other's work they would not have made that movie together.
@@youbidoubidou you need to do your research they did have a famous feud and only worked together because they had little work due to their age
@@youbidoubidou www.refinery29.com/en-us/2017/02/142939/bette-davis-joan-crawford-feud-true-story here's a story about their feud.
I completely agree with that. Honestly idt they hated each other I think Joan Crawford noticed Bette Davis was taking roles and Joan had a complex about getting older and being in front of the camera. On the other hand , Bette Davis was taking roles left and right when she could. The Witch mountain movies and on to a little bitty roles in the early 80's.
True
This scene is a testament to Bette Davis' skills. Even though it's clear that Jane is crazy and vengeful, this scene is heartbreaking because you're seeing a woman who has never really been allowed to grow up, has only taken comfort from the fantasies of returning to stage and is now realizing that those days are long past but has no idea how to move forward.
Joan Crawford is delightful in this movie too (especially when she realizes what's going on) but Bette Davis shines here.
janeyrevanescence12 Joan Crawford didn't get an Academy Award nomination here because she basically reacts to BD's character. I love Joan (esp Mildred Pierce) but in a lot of ways it's Bette's movie.
is that what was going on in real life?
Yes in a sense because both actresses had a strong dislike for each other in reality.
I'D LIKE TO DISAGREE. I THOUGHT THIS ACTING WAS OVER THE TOP AND CHEESY WHEN I SAW THIS MOVIE...FROM BOTH ACTRESSES. IF THIS WAS DONE TODAY, IT WOULD BE REGARDED AS A COMEDY/FARCE.
janeyrevanescence12 um, duh. It was then too. That's what made it so great. You miss the point and popularity of this film completely
Blanche ringing that bell was her way of bringing Jane back to reality . When she heard her singing noticed the wtf look. She knew it was about to get crazy up in that joint, lmfao.
ikr!! but too bad for blanche, this crazy as f woman is her "care taker" xD
elder abuse!
@countess77 maybe, but that’s not a
very wise move. When people are in that fragile state of mind you don’t provoke them like this. Remember the last scene of Sunset Boulevard when Norma Desmond was losing her mind, the cop didn’t just slam down the door and drag her to the police station
Celine Roberts Blanche was crazy in her own right.I mean she tried to murder her own sister!
lol. Why is that so funny to me?
This is better than most horror movies today
D'ya think? Of course it is
Totally agree, Bette Davis killed this role!
@@gatheringleavesyes yes and crawford
She really scared me, it was .....quite disturbing...
I LOVE these old pics!!!
Bette should have won. This was one of the greatest performances of her career. This very scene was so heartbreaking and moving. Showing a middle aged woman clinging desperately to her past as a celebrated child star, drowning in alcohol to escape from the grim reality that she has been long forgotten.
All About Eve was her best film.
No one could ever do crazy quite like Betty Davis
Except Gloria Swanson!
and mother from psycho!
She was supreme but I could give Baby Jane Hudson a CRAZY run for her money!
There are rats in her cellar and bats in her belfry!
First order of business I am Crazy Jane Hudson and proud of it since 1964 when I was 16 years old and first saw this movie one of the two greatest of all time!!!
When she looks at her reflection in the mirror is one of the scariest moments in the histoy of cinema.
because we see our own nightmare to come
@@thomasdelvin3683 she realizes she isnt young anymore and it scares her
yeah
She temporarily reverts back to her childhood, but when she moves up close to the mirror and takes a good look at herself and sees how ugly she really is, it terrifies her.
That buzzer would drive anybody crazy
This gives me chills. It’s scarier than a lot of horror movies.
The scariest movies are psychological thrillers just like this one.
Psychological horror films, if done right, are scarier than the average horror film.
another sisterly bond i remember is Zelda and Rachel
The way Blanche rang that buzzer, she deserved everything she got.
lol
Nah, this one of her better moments. As soon she heard Jane singing, she gave a “awe shit” look, closed that book, and wheeled herself to that buzzer because she knew something crazy was about to go down.
Finally someone brave enough to say it 😂
Very disturbing. But you can't help but feel a tinsy bit sorry for her.
Cat Peach I feel bad for Jane more than a "tinsy" bit! Blanche took away part of Janes 20's all of her 30's, and 40's, and the rest of her life from her. She created the guilt in Jane that truly led her down a path of self destruction. Blanche is the real villain here in my opinion!
Allen Oberhem True. She should have told Jane the truth.
@@brightstarlit I can't imagine how insane it must be trapped by something you didn't do forced into something someone else caused
This scene alone made her deserved of an Oscar.
She was charaterized anyway, but as Bette Davis said: "Old age is not a place for sissies !!!
Bette Davis was robbed for an Oscar.
te envío este regalito que lo disfutes
Of not for
Just like Linda Blair in THE EXCORCIST
She definitely deserved one. I believe that year Lee Remick won for "Days Of Wine and Roses". ICOH this movie won at least one Oscar.
@@danielhayes7967 Anne Bancroft won for the Miracle Worker. A great performance, but she'd played the part dozens of times on stage. Bette Davis created this character.
Bette Davis is magnificent in this movie! No one could touch Bette Davis. She should have won an Oscar.
It is Rumored that Joan Crawford didn't Want Her to Win so She Did What She Could to avoid that.
This Movie Was Really Good, Bette Davis Really Moved Me and This Scene is Extremely heart Breaking.
NoBody, Not Even The Magnificent and The Most Talented Actress of today, Meryl Streep, Could Play this Role Better than Bette Davis Did.
@@LMedici: ABSOLUTELY no one could or will ever do this role as supremely as Bette Davis!
Yes, but Ann Bancroft was also riveting in The Miracle Worker. Just the physically challenging part of her performance was jaw dropping. Plus having to learn sign language and speak with an Irish accent. That's a lot of acting going on.
It really is a horror film. A woman trapped in a house with her maniac sister.
The scariest part is that they both are trapped in a house with their maniac sister
@@kostas8537 good point
Well Guess What Mimi We Did change your costume ! Change it around !
beep beep beep beep adeline hanson
Joseph Sais come on drag race reference!
OMG what a powerful scene. It's almost too disturbing to watch.
This wasn't just a movie experience for me, but it was a life experience. Inevitably we will all get old with changing of times and look back on our golden days reminiscing what we once were or what we use to be. I truly believe that Jane wasn't a bad person, but someone that just needed a little love and companion.
She needed a husband.
If you think about it... this could be Marilyn Monroe if she never found love and live long enough.
She killed Elvira...that was bad!!!
@Britney Grey she needed to stop blaming herself for the accident and realize that she was no longer a child star.
A husband doesn't magically cure everything, especially mental illness!
Haven't we all felt like Bette/Jane at least once in our lives.
My boyfriend at the time came to my apartment building front gate and kept pressing the buzzer incessantly which brought me back to this scene. So I marched to the intercom, pushed the [Talk] button and bellowed, "ALL RIGHT, BLANCHE HUDSON!!! BIG, FAT MOVIE STAR!!! LOUSY STICKIN' ACTRESS!!! PUSH A BUTTON...RING A BELL...AND YOU THINK THE HOLE DAMN WORLD COMES RUNNIN'!!!" I'm sure the entire Castro neighborhood heard it.
B Kavanaugh Um, not me.
B Kavanaugh Yeah like 5 minutes ago
Yes... regrets that haunt us.
Yes today was that day
I watched this movie a few days ago and it really messed me up. The scariest thing about it was how Jane’s life was wasted because of a lie. If she knew it wasn’t her fault she could have moved on and done great things or met great people. It really makes you want to make the most of your life
I remember watching this as a small kid in the late 90s, I was in bed with a bad flu and had nightmares about Bette Davis for days
That sister upstairs in wheelchair was the nut she knew Jane was crazy as hell but she kept ringing buzzers and asking questions.
Yeah she seem to take great pleasure when she was pushing the buzzer she knew what to do to her sister. This movie play so true to how Betty Davis and Joan Crawford get along in real life.
Who wouldn't go berserk with Blanch ringing that buzzer like a boss LOL
That buzzing would make me lose it, too.
You know she really wanted to say, "ALRIGHT JOAN CRAWFORD, MISS BIG BAD ACTRESS!"
😂😂😂😂
Bette Davis was robbed of at least 2 Oscars. One for Baby Jane and the other for All About Eve. Who agrees?
👍Sho right Unfortunately politics plays a role in whom the Oscars to too😔
Bette blamed Joan for sabotaging her chances of winning Best Actress.
Nope. Ann Bancroft's performance was jaw- dropping. What an incredibly difficult role that was to play. So many obstacles to face for playing Ann Sullivan. Bette was great, but Bancroft's performance took ones breath away. The Oscars got this one right.
I DEFINITELY AGREE!!! 🤦🏿♂️
Probably one if the best motion pictures ever made. Should have taken Oscar
This moment is heartbreaking. Suddenly, reality hits Jane. It is reinforced by Blanch's insistent ringing of the bell. .. Tragic..
she so deserved the Oscar for this masterpiece
I'd probably go off too if someone was buzzing me at the same time I was having a drunken breakdown. Just not with all the tying up and everything else...
The incomparable Bette Davis - the finest actress the world has ever seen
Blanche rings that damned buzzer from two locations at once--her bed, and then sitting beside the bed table completely on the other side!
O_O...this is one of the few moments in movie history that has legitimately terrified me. Bette Davis is absolutely stunning in her acting!
truth be told we can all relate to this scene.
You can tell she put all the hatred she felt for Joan into that. I could feel it. Bette is a legend for a damn good reason.
Bette Davis one of the greatest actresses the world has ever seen Amazing performance
What an actress!!!! BETTE DAVIS, THE GREATEST OF THEM ALL!!
Agree! My all time favourite actress.

I thought Joan was the best
Can we just appreciate what a masterpiece this film is?
Joan was very good but this movie is Bette's.
B Kavanaugh Yeah, Joan’s part could have been played by anyone.
We husband was very impressed with her facial expressions (Joan’s). I do not think anyone could have played her role, not at all. Joan just did not get the big role
In this that is all.
My*
@@bridgettebianchi9315 nobody, not nobody could have played Jane like Bette, end of story
I can’t help but laugh when she says “LUNCH, Miss Hudson? Why CERTAINLY, Miss Hudson!”
This scene still gives me the chills.
fave scene, when she recites that priceless rhyme
see the way she is dressed? almost reminds me of the character from the Hush Hush Don't Cry maze @ Queen mary's
When I saw this as a fourth grader in the fall of 1962, Bette Davis scared the crap out of me! I'd no idea she'd once been a "big fat movie stah" and a romantic lead. Her make-up and performance were just incredible. And what a performance! Though I liked Anne Bancroft in The Miracle Worker, she played the part dozens of times on Broadway. Bette had just one chance, and look at what she created! Could any contemporary actress play a role like Jane? Maybe Bette Midler, but I can't see anyone else in the part.
Rod Labbe: How very lucky you saw it in 1962 in the theater when it first came out at your age of 8 I assume. I saw it by accident on t.v. about 1964 after a commercial advertised it was to be shown. Without that commercial I doubt I would have seen it and had to wait for 10 or 15 years or more.
Second you are out of your mind putting that piece of shit Midler in this role. By no stretch of the imagination for this part or anything else!!! She is totally untalented!!! An absolute nothing!!!
I’d like to see Sharon Stone play her!😁
This is one of her best scenes.She could express so much in sorrow,pain then terrify you.Stunning!
3:17 Pretty much how Bette felt about Joan in real life.
She really felt this way about Joan.
That buzzer bell is enough to drive me crazy. I most definitely agree that Betty Davis took it home with this movie. Betty Davis was magnificent! No doubt about it. Joan Crawford played her part very well. Betty Davis, was a outstanding actress. RIP both of you. 🌹💐
There won´t be actresses like that anymore.
"I've got the brrrhhaassss!" Classic! These two will never be matched. I LOVE how Joan works that buzzer and then sits on it! Too funny!!!
I love Bette's rant at the end! Always makes me chuckle how she says it and how she slams the piano!!! :)
We're all supposed to be sympathetic to Blanche. But are we? Nooooooooo! Davis is so magnificent in this that she somehow manages to create sympathy and even a kind of admiration for her gutsiness. Also, what nobody seems to notice is that Jane is also in a horrible position, just as trapped as Blanche, at the beck and call of this duplicitous woman who actually put HERSELF in the wheelchair trying to kill her sister. It's a weird dynamic and probably the archetype for all sisterly relationships.
So Jane was framed for the accident that happened the night of 1934.
+ferociousgumby Very well said!
Both Actresses are Great in their roles, Davis Particulary Compensated Her Uglyness With Such Talent.
In fact, I Don't Want to watch The Thing Ryan Murphy is Planning to do With This movie, 'Cause Susan Sarandon Won't be able to equal Bette Davis' Talent.
Some women peak in their youth.
❤
“If ya starve ya die. You really must be sick”.
I really get a kick out of those lines from Jane!
i keep threatening my husband that this is how we will end up.
I love 2:36-3:01 when Jane realizes that those days of being Mamma's little angel are over and gone. Her scream symbolizes her last grip of reality, when she realizes that there will be no comeback for Baby Jane. This is one of the few times I actually feel sorry for her.
i always thought she was the OLDER sister since joan was younger
One of the greatest performances in the history of cinema!
no one ever in the history of cinema has ever or has yet to give crazy, chilling performances like Bette Davis. when she played mentally unstable characters, she did it so the fullest extent and highest level. I watched What Happened to Baby Jane for the first time when I was like 11 years old & this scene scarred me for life. Joan was very good in this movie also but this movie belonged to Bette. She shined and acted her ass off. Her acting here is so spine chilling, she was just an acting BEAST! Rest In Peace to the one and only.
Well said👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
2:52 My ex was repeatedly pressing the buzzer to my apartment just like Blanche. So I walked over to the intercom, press the button, and screamed Jane's entire response into the mike. Thanks, Bette.
then she took you to the ccrazy house?
RaymondHng: lmao love it! Haha
Bet $10 you fucking didn’t
One of my favorite films of all time. Davis and Crawford were the perfect cast for this movie. Shame that Davis didn't win the Academy Award that year.
Bette was the best....theres no one who could do this kind of role..she should of gotten all the awards
This is my most favorite movie in the world....Creepy as fuck but simply GENIUS
Bette Davis was just brilliant.
And under no circumstances tell my sister the contents of the note.
It's not me that needs a doctah Blanch.
I agree it is far better than any horror film!
This scene alone shows what a great actress she is. She was definitely robbed!!!
This movie is spectacular. Awesome! The glorious days of hollywood. Bette Davis and Joan Crawford are magnificent.
Sad scene... I feel sorry for her.
2:40 I'm sooo thinking of that commercial where the man's voice says ''the moment you realize...''' blah blah blah. well I say "The moment you realize that you're NOT the little girl you imagine yourself to be. you've aged.''
I would've LOVED to have a doll like that as a child. I don't find it creepy at all. That doll is gorgeous!
but when ur an old person still playing with it...
@@krystalharwood1807and trying to look like it.... creepy.
I can't stop watching this clip. Such good actresses they were.
Any one can snap when you turn old.what a scary moment.
I remember watching Feud: Bette and Joan. There’s a part where Bette is sitting down and watching a screening of this scene in the projector room. She begins to tear up and cry as she watches herself breakdown and lose it here. I’ve always wondered why. Is it because she didn’t imagine this kind of crazy role for herself in her lifetime? This performance got to her very emotionally, at least that’s what the show portrayed....😢
I’m pretty sure Bette was crying the same reason why Joan did, and why Baby Jane cries in this scene. She’s realized how old she really is and looks. She is able to play Baby Jane so well because they both have the same concerns and fears of getting old and undesirable.
She said it’s because she had to face her own aging and declining appearance in that scene.
I saw it on TV once first time, and after that i was hooked. And i have always love the black and white with Betty and Jone.
I will never understand why Bette Davis didn't get an Oscar for this scene and movie. She is absolutely terrific playing this mad character. It's heartbreaking, disturbing, horrible, all together.
Bette Davis acting cant be beat by no one! I’ve never seen such a great actress!
This is such a sad scene. This was a sad film. I never laugh at anything about it.
This has been my favorite movie since I was 8.
Wonderful Posting! Bette Davis is so poignant when she catches sight of her aged self while reminiscing about the glory days of her youth. She is again rocketed back to the present with Blanche's insistent buzzer. I like the way Blanche shivers when Bette slaps down cover of grand piano! Great scene from a great movie!
Another good Betty Davis movie is Hush huh sweet Charlotte.
i love how kooky and absurd bette davis is in this film
She was born to play this. Wonderful in this She made this movie. Without her it was nothing.

This is my favorite scene in the whole movie.
“Now when I’m very good
And do as I am told
I’m Mama’s little angel
And Papa says I’m good as gold
But when I’m very bad
And answer back in sas
Then I’m Mama’s little devil
And Papa says I’ve got the brass
Now I wish that you would tell me
‘Cause I’m much to young to know”
The scream at 2:50 is PHENOMINAL!!!!! I crack up everytime. That alone deserved an oscar.
What an awesome actor she is.
I recently watched this movie and it's so sad at points
I don't see this as a thriller anymore. I see it as a tragedy. It's sad to watch what these sisters did to each other and what happened to them.
So many facets to this movie. Things that we can all relate to. This past year, I was at the annual family Christmas Eve party....I looked around and ask myself ...where did everyone go.? The passing of time,how things change, how WE change, so fleeting an so painfull at times......2:38
One of the best scenes in the movie. This is great acting. If she would have won for one of her films of the '40s or early '50s, she would not have been so determined to want this one.
I love the piece where she goes to the cupboard and sees she's out of business so she get's on the phone and imitates Blanche classic
i love this movie i remember watching it with my great granny as a little girl
A deadly combo waiting you in this movie.
"Doo wahhh, doo wahhh!" --Alyssa Edwards
gonna use it for my answering service.
Bette Davis cracks me up. xD I couldn't stop laughing with she started ranting and took a swipe at the piano. LOL
Me too!!
I felt immersed in the scene and also sorry for her
My boyfriend at the time came to my apartment building front gate and kept pressing the buzzer incessantly which brought me back to this scene. So I marched to the intercom, pushed the [Talk] button and bellowed, "ALL RIGHT, BLANCHE HUDSON!!! BIG, FAT MOVIE STAR!!! LOUSY STICKIN' ACTRESS!!! PUSH A BUTTON...RING A BELL...AND YOU THINK THE HOLE DAMN WORLD COMES RUNNIN'!!!" I'm sure the entire Castro neighborhood heard it.
RaymondHng That's gold!!!!!
I love the LOUD crash of the piano lid. I would love to have done that in front of several people in my past life.
When Blanche is first hitting the buzzer, she's sitting on the bed. One second later, she's in a wheelchair with a book on her lap!
This is is my favorite part of the movie! I'm so glad you uploaded it, now to sit back and watch it over and over again.
Fabulous! My favourite film, and one of my favourite scenes ~ Bette Davies was amazing as was Joan Crawford the roles were perfect for them both ~Thank You!
2 people in the history of Hollywood injustly robbed of an Oscar...Gloria Swanson for Sunset Boulevard...and Bette Davis for What Ever Happened To Baby Jane...HANDS DOWN ROBBED!!!!!
And two of them have a similaitty grande old dames queens
Amazing performance from Bette Davis - I agree quite terrifying !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bette Davis the Legend Actress made this movie a Classic!
