Bette Davis: She did it the Hard Way. (Jerry Skinner Documentary)

[@CAROLUSPRIMA]

Jerry Skinner is a national treasure.

[@kolehector4394]

dunno if anyone cares but if you're bored like me during the covid times you can stream pretty much all the new series on instaflixxer. Have been binge watching with my girlfriend during the lockdown xD

[@gerardoromeo6745]

@Kole Hector Yea, I've been watching on InstaFlixxer for years myself :D

[@terrencearturo7750]

@Kole Hector Yup, been using instaflixxer for since november myself :D

[@mikegehre570]

She can be summed up in one word-incredible. Few stars achieve legendary stardom and she well deserved that honor.

[@corineusa1454]

Bette Davis is hands down my favorite actress. The range of her talent was magnified with her performances in The Little Foxes & All about Eve.

[@gordonipock9385]

So do I.

[@willowbrooks]

Same.

[@CALLMESIR...]

Taken, but who's your favorite modern age actress? I like Streep and Coleman.

[@corineusa1454]

@@CALLMESIR... Glen Close, Sigourney Weaver & the actress that played Anne of a Thousand Days & Coma ????

[@CALLMESIR...]

@corineusa1454 Ah, you mean Genevieve Bujold. Yes. She fell off the map eventually. Glenn is another favorite. How could I forget her.

[@vicmorrison8128]

That was a pretty honorable thing Spielberg did, to buy her two Oscar's and donate them to the museum for all to see. Davis was a force of nature.

[@susansehorn2412]

The finest actress to ever grace a stage. Bette Davis.

[@dnava1010]

This is only channel I listen to at work. Even if hearing all the videos over and over, l can never get tired of learning and listening to you Mr. Skinner.

[@JerrySkinner1943]

Thank you Denise, for taking me to work with you. Jerry

[@wandahall4435]

I enjoy all of Your work, but Bette Davis is one of My absolute favorites💖💖💖

[@anneroselli161]

Oh yeah I remember better Davis eyes great job as always

[@Eagle1349]

@@anneroselli161 , she was a wonderful actress with beautiful eyes, but a horrible person!

[@roybean7166]

Fantastic story telling, the best.!

[@robertwatson39]

Another fine job Jerry. She was in a class of her own. I didn’t like all of her movies, but the ones I liked I really liked ( Bride came COD with Cagney ). Keep up the good work, from Down Under.

[@astrochakbathbodyaromather5984]

My favorite actress of all time. Love her eyes. As always, great job Jerry!

[@marceau425]

I love anything jerry skinner and anything bettie davis so win win!!!!

[@hell0hkitty]

jerry, bette is my most favorite actress of all time. she passed a week to the day after my mother. i watch her movies over and over. thank you so much for this honor. xoxo😥

[@aday1637]

The woman was a wild one. Married/divorced so many times in this account, I lost count. She lived like there was no tomorrow. Many of my mother's generation couldn't/wouldn't miss any of Betty's films.

[@ChancetheCanine]

A Day, you got me curious so I went to IMDB and put her name in, only 4 times she was married, she's a lite weight compared to Elizabeth Taylor! ;)

[@Eagle1349]

I agree, A Day, you made great points! she was a wonderful actress with beautiful eyes, but a horrible person. She held a grudge against Joan Crawford because Joan married the guy who proposed to her [her being Joan]. Falling in love with another lady's fiancè while being a married lady herself? Betty kept a grudge against Joan to the end of her life. Plus the affair with Mr. Howard!

[@a4ur8]

Hey, Jerry I really enjoy your videos and your listening to your distinctive southern drawl, as well as your vast knowledge of these famous people. Keep up the great work, my friend.

[@TheRealDrJoey]

Beautiful wind up there, at the end of the narration. Well done, Jerry.

[@WildWestGal]

Jerry, your productions just keep getting better and better! Everything was perfect, and your choice of background music is always so good and never intrusive. This was an excellent bio, can't wait for your next one!

[@M_Darabi]

Bette Davis was a classy, sassy, feisty woman, not to mention she was a lady..my kind of woman who didn't take shit from a man or anyone else. Ms. Davis didn't need a man to take care of her. She was a strait forward woman. Look at the women of today in Hollywood...cheap and unattractive in their ways. Thank you Jerry Skinner for uploading this video. It was awesome!

[@Eagle1349]

she was a wonderful actress with beautiful eyes, but a horrible person. You made a point about today's actresses, but Betty was no different. Think about it, she held a grudge against Joan Crawford, because Joan married the guy who proposed to her [her being Joan]. Falling in love with another lady's fiancè while being a married lady herself? Betty kept a grudge against Joan to the end of her life. Plus the affair with Mr. Howard! I would put her in the same category as today's actresses, I may rate her a bit lower! I do give her high marks on her acting ability, she was one of the best of all time!

[@AHMAD-2324]

In my opinion she's the Greatest actress of All-time such an Amazing talent.

[@scotnick59]

They are very strong and arrogant; Joan of Crawford was an Arien as well....

[@Spiderman7Bob7]

In my humble opinion Bette Davis was the Greatest Movie Star of them all. She was a star of the Golden Age of Hollywood. Most of her films are on DVD for us all to see what great movie acting was in those days.

[@tobygoodguy4032]

What this country needs over the next 4 years is to see a Bette Davis film every night.

[@bigdeneen]

I think I just fell in love with Betty Davis

[@oifiismith]

Happy Thanksgiving, Jerry Another great video. Keep up all you hard work. It it appreciated 🙏 You should be on the History Channel.

[@slydesplaylists]

Academically and historically one of the most important actresses ever. The intrigue about Howard Hughes to now it's all metaphorically Marshal Baby Y Jane perhaps. Enjoyed lots and people should enjoy the films from that period of time.
