What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? - Jane Impersonates Blanche

[@jsidwell05]

It is the expression on Bette's face while imitating Crawford , that makes the scene so funny

[@juliarodriguez4572]

It's hilarious!

[@lewisedwards4058]

She is the essence of perfect acting.

[@Deva7]

That's called perfect dubbing though.

[@nina1522]

I always wondered about that I doubt even an actress as talented as Bette could pull off an impersonation that good.

[@mattg.812]

Lol

[@baberina1]

How is this acting??? She was an incredible bitch in real life!!?? How is this a stretch?? And they definitely dubbed her voice. You must have low standards.

[@theredbutterfly-]

@@baberina1 no its her, you're the moaning bitch, you can clearly distinguish her accent and manner of speaking. You don't know shit about acting.

[@christopherdarby2589]

The look on her face at all those bottles. Superb camera work. And the way she never lifts her feet when walking. Yep she should have won the Oscar

[@hyperdog67]

Some credit must be given to the director on this masterpiece, Robert Aldrich. His scope is incredible! Then to go on to direct The Dirty Dozen.. great talent.

[@gabrielmoody1708]

[@daleandrews9356]

Boy, she nailed it! I remember seeing this at a theatre when it was new around 1962. I was a young lad of 10. It made quite an impression on this impressionable child, and not a good one! In retrospect, all the acting by two acting queens was as convincing as it gets. As someone once said: "It just don't get any better!"

[@JeffFreemanPresents]

One shot on that phone call. That's amazing acting!

[@littlerockguy]

That scene alone should have given her the Oscar that year.

[@matteusconnollius1203]

Yes,Joan Crawford did a good job dubbing her.

[@roberttelarket4934]

Robert Kerlen: All the scenes, but ABOVE ALL the singing of I'VE WRITTEN A LETTER TO DADDY by BETTE to Edwin, the GREATEST song of all time!!! No I'm not crazy, just crazy about this cult classic.

[@mattg.812]

Why?

[@roberttelarket4934]

Matt G.:There are no words that I know to describe why. It is just so!!! And millions of others agree and I mean millions that this cult classic movie is the one of the greatest of all times! Forever and ever! If you don't like it then as far as us fans are concerned you are the one who is mentally ill!!!

[@iCyclone]

What's so awesome about this scene is that Joan Crawford had to parody herself to produce the voiceover that's supposed to be Jane speaking-- and she shows real comic flair. You can hear that she really hams it up-- talks in this absurdly sugary and phony-polite voice. This kind of tells me that Joan had a sense of humor; you have to have some self-awareness to do such a funny imitation of yourself. I know I'm getting way too analytical here...

[@nikhilsukumar23]

iCyclone perfectly explained you are an apt critic and modest

[@Deva7]

Joan was known to have a great sense of humor. It was much subtler though than Bette's bitchy humor.

[@LoganLavery]

You're not being too analytical, but you are observant

[@chrisn7259]

So true! Joan was very proud that she had to do the phone voice because Bette couldn't imitate her!

[@johnn.5033]

No, I don't think you're being too analytical at all. That is the exact kind of introspectiveness that people need to have more of nowadays. It shows you put in an effort to at least see the human side of Joan rather than all the foolish post Mommie Dearest sycophants who love to rave against her just for the humor.

[@olymposhiraeth1559]

i know shes not actually doing the voice, but that still unsettles the hell out of me

[@pittoreritrattista]

What an actress Bette Davis was! !

[@lymedevries2346]

Jane: I made a picture that year, too. They were just too busy giving a big build-up to all that CRAP you were putting out! Blanche: Yes. I remember. It was a comedy. Jane: NO! It was a love story. Precious!!!!!

[@stephanopmaria]

That happened in real life too among the two actresses. I think it was when Bette just released a picture(sorry I cannot remember the name) and was waiting for the critics and at the same day Joan announced the divorce to Douglas Fairbanks Jr.. so you can imagine that all the first pages were talking about the divorce of the Cinderella and the prince and Bette who was waiting the big shot with one of her first A pictures was furious...😂

[@RiccardoCastagnari]

"In the scenes where Jane imitates Blanche's voice, the voice is from Crawford and not from Davis". (Wikipedia)

[@thegreatestman851]

Davis. She was a revelation in this film!

[@susietowers7331]

Baby Jane was the victim of Blanche all along. From childhood she struggled along with her minimal talents to please her parents and provide for her family, under the jealous and vindictive watch of her mean little sister. She even makes sure to include her in getting ice cream, which goes entirely unappreciated. Then Blanche spends the rest of her petty, mean, and vindictive little life targeting and undermining her own flesh and blood, going so far as staging her own accident, so everyone can see what a 'victim' she is and driving her sister into addiction and madness by promoting vicious lies and rumors. What you don't see is how Jane's efforts to bring her family to Hollywood and getting her sister auditions and introductions led to her success. The truth can be told now!

[@pipspiper]

The accident was not staged but a failed attempt to kill or injure Jane. Instead of Jane, Blanche was the one who went invalid.

[@jmo5037]

The ice cream, at least in the movie, appeared as sarcasm to get their father to yell at Blanche. Blanche got her sister work as an actress with a clause in her contract. Jane hadn't yet been accustomed to this shift in power and was bitter against Blanche which is what happened at the party. Blanche then tried to kill her and wanted to evade an attempt at murder by staging her own accident. Jane was already a heavy drinker by then because of her failures. Blanche didn't confess or get Jane psychological treatment in fear of her crime being discovered so your interpretation is wrong. Blanche was not a monster though Jane was a victim. Jane appears to be more talented than Blanche. Blanche made it because of her beauty and sophistication.

I've been reading about the on going fued between the two. It goes to show you just how professional they kept it when the cameras were on. I kinda feel that the movie was so good because each woman was almost trying to out preform the other, and keep it toned down and natural at the same time.
