You're silly too.  Of course it counts!  

Of course BETTE played QE1 twice.  THE VIRGIN QUEEN (1955) was the second

 

The first one was THE PRIVATE LIVES OF ELIZABETH AND ESSEX (1939) a film I love because BETTE is opposite ERROL FLYNN.

I bought a book a while back called SCREAM QUEENS by Calvin T. Beck ( the editor of Castle of Frankenstein magazine) and she has a whole chapter to herself.

now that I think about it the only Bette Davis movie I've seen is All About Eve  :question:
Kubrick, Nolan, Tarantino, Wan, Iñárritu, Scorsese, Chaplin, Abrams, Wes Anderson, Gilliam, Kurosawa, Villeneuve - the elite



I believe in the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

The Burgomaster

What's the one she starred in with a teenage boy (it's an old movie from the 1930s) where he kept getting a boner during filming? I think I have it in a Mill Creek 50 movie pack.

"Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me the hell alone."

No, it was 1932's Hell House with Bette Davis and Junior Durkin. Which outtakes from the film was mighty popular among people attending private stag nights in Hollywood, and which led to many fights with Junior and others, as for some reason, Junior took offense to what was being seen on the screen. Junior would make only 5 more films, before he lost his life in an automobile accident in southern California. An accident which also took the lives of 3 more people. Jackie Coogan was also in the car at that time, but was the only one to survive the accident.

To be rudely honest, she gave me the creeps.
