novelty song "They re Either Too Young or Too Old " which became a hit record after the film s release Old Acquaintance reunited her with Miriam Hopkins in a story of two old friends who deal with the tensions created when one of them becomes a successful novelist Davis felt that Hopkins tried to upstage her throughout the film Director Vincent Sherman recalled the intense competitiveness and animosity between the two actresses and Davis often joked that she held back nothing in a scene in which she was required to shake Hopkins in a fit of anger In August Davis husband Arthur Farnsworth collapsed while walking along a Hollywood street and died two days later An autopsy revealed that his fall had been caused by a skull fracture he had suffered two weeks earlier Davis testified before an inquest that she knew of no event that might have caused the injury A finding of accidental death was reached Highly distraught Davis attempted to withdraw from her next film Mr Skeffington but Jack Warner who had halted production following Farnsworth s death convinced her to continue Although she had gained a reputation for being forthright and demanding her behavior during filming of Mr Skeffington was erratic and out of character She alienated Vincent Sherman by refusing to film certain scenes and insisting that some sets be rebuilt She improvised dialogue causing confusion among other actors and infuriated the writer Julius Epstein who was called upon to rewrite scenes at her whim Davis later explained her actions with the observation "when I was most unhappy I lashed out rather than whined " Some reviewers criticized Davis for the excess of her performance James Agee wrote that she "demonstrates the horrors of egocentricity on a marathonic scale " but despite the mixed reviews she received another Academy Award nomination Professional setbacks – edit In The Corn Is Green Despite the studio s suggestion that Davis play the role as a young woman the year old insisted on aging her appearance to fit the part In Davis married artist William Grant Sherry who also when necessary worked as a masseur She had been drawn to him because he claimed he had never heard of her and was therefore not intimidated by her The same year Davis refused the title role in Mildred Pierce a role for which Joan Crawford won an Academy Award and instead made The Corn Is Green based on a play by Emlyn Williams Davis played Miss Moffat an English teacher who saves a young Welsh miner John Dall from a life in the coal pits by offering him education The part had been played in the theatre by Ethel Barrymore but Warner Bros felt that the film version should depict the character as a younger woman Davis disagreed and insisted on playing the part as written and wore a gray wig and padding under her clothes to create a dowdy appearance The film was well received by critics and made a profit of million The critic E Arnot Robertson observed that "only Bette Davis

could have combated so successfully the obvious intention of the adaptors of the play to make frustrated sex the mainspring of the chief character s interest in the young miner " She concluded that "the subtle interpretation she insisted on giving" kept the focus on the teacher s "sheer joy in imparting knowledge " Her next film A Stolen Life was the first and only film that Davis made with her own production company BD Productions Davis played dual roles as twins The film received poor reviews and was described by Bosley Crowther as "a distressingly empty piece " but with a profit of million it was one of her biggest box office successes In the U S Treasury named Davis as the highest paid woman in the country with her share of the film s profit accounting for most of her earnings Her next film was Deception the first of her films to lose money Possessed had been tailor made for Davis and was to have been her next project after Deception However she was pregnant and went on maternity leave Joan Crawford played her role in Possessed and was nominated for an Academy Award as Best Actress In at the age of Davis gave birth to a daughter Barbara Davis Sherry known as B D and later wrote in her memoir that she became absorbed in motherhood and considered ending her career However her relationship with Sherry began to deteriorate and she continued making films but her popularity with audiences was steadily declining Among the film roles offered to Davis following her return to film making was Rose Sayer in The African Queen When informed that the film was to be shot in Africa Davis refused the part telling Jack Warner "If you can t shoot the picture in a boat on the back lot then I m not interested " Katharine Hepburn played the role and was nominated for an Academy Award as Best Actress Davis was also offered a role in a film version of the Virginia Kellogg prison drama Women Without Men Originally intended to pair Davis with Joan Crawford Davis made it clear that she would not appear in any "dyke movie " It was filmed as Caged and the lead roles were played by Eleanor Parker who was nominated for an Academy Award as Best Actress and Agnes Moorehead She lobbied Jack Warner to make two films Ethan Frome and a biography of Mary Todd Lincoln however Warner vetoed each proposal Beyond the Forest was the last film Davis made for Warner Bros after years with the studioIn Davis was cast in the melodrama Winter Meeting and although she was initially enthusiastic she soon learned that Warner had arranged for "softer" lighting to be used to disguise her age She recalled that she had seen the same lighting technique "on the sets of Ruth Chatterton and Kay Francis and I knew what they meant " She began to regret accepting the role and to add to her disappointment she was not confident in the abilities of her leading man James Davis in his first major screen role She disagreed with amendments made to the script because of censorship restrictions and found that many of the aspects of the role that had initially appealed to her had been cut The film was later described by Bosley Crowther as "interminable " and he noted that "of all the miserable dilemmas in which Miss Davis has been involved this one is probably the worst" It failed at the box office and the studio lost nearly one million dollars While making June Bride Davis clashed with co star Robert Montgomery later describing him as "a male Miriam Hopkins an excellent actor but addicted to scene stealing " The film marked her first comedy in several years and earned her some positive reviews but it was not particularly popular with audiences and returned only a small profit Despite the lackluster box office receipts from her more recent films in she negotiated a four film contract with Warner Bros which paid per week and made her the highest paid woman in the United States Jack Warner refused to allow her script approval however and cast her in Beyond the Forest Davis reportedly loathed the script and begged Warner to recast the role but he refused After the film was completed Warner released Davis from her contract at her request The reviews that followed were scathing Dorothy Manners writing for the Los Angeles Examiner described the film as "an unfortunate finale to her brilliant career " Hedda Hopper wrote "If Bette had deliberately set out to wreck her career she could not have picked a more appropriate vehicle " The film contained the line "What a dump " which became closely associated with Davis after it was referenced in Edward Albee s Who s Afraid of Virginia Woolf and impersonators began to use it in their acts In later years Davis often used it as her opening line at speaking engagements Starting a freelance career – edit Davis posing as Margo Channing in a promotional image for All About Eve She is pictured with Gary Merrill to whom she was married from to her fourth and final husband By Davis and Sherry were estranged and Hollywood columnists were writing that Davis career was at an end She filmed The Story of a Divorce released by RKO Radio Pictures in as Payment on Demand but had received no other offers Shortly before filming was completed the producer Darryl F Zanuck offered her the role of the aging theatrical actress Margo Channing in All About Eve Claudette Colbert for whom the part had been written had severely injured her back and she was unable to continue Davis read the script described it as the best she had ever read and accepted the role Within days she joined the cast in San Francisco to begin filming During production she established what would become a lifelong friendship with her co star Anne Baxter and a romantic relationship with her leading man Gary Merrill which led to marriage The film s director Joseph L Mankiewicz later remarked "Bette was letter perfect She was syllable perfect The director s dream the prepared actress " Critics responded positively to Davis performance and several of her lines became well known particularly "Fasten your seatbelts it s going to be a bumpy night " She was again nominated for an Academy Award and critics such as Gene Ringgold described her Margo as her "all time best performance " Pauline Kael wrote that much of Mankiewicz vision of "the theater" was "nonsense" but commended Davis writing " the film is saved by one performance that is the real thing Bette Davis is at her most instinctive and assured Her actress—vain scared a woman who goes too far in her reactions and emotions—makes the whole thing come alive " Davis won a Best Actress award from the Cannes Film Festival and the New York Film Critics Circle Award She also received the San Francisco Film Critics Circle Award as "Best Actress" having been named by them as the "Worst Actress" of for Beyond the Forest During this time she was invited to leave her handprints in the forecourt of Grauman s Chinese Theatre On July Davis divorce from William Sherry was finalized and on July she married Gary Merrill With Sherry s consent Merrill adopted B D Davis daughter with Sherry and in Davis and Merrill adopted a baby girl they named Margot The family traveled to England where Davis and Merrill starred in a murder mystery film Another Man s Poison When it received lukewarm reviews and failed at the box office Hollywood columnists wrote that Davis comeback had petered out and an Academy Award nomination for The Star did not halt her decline Davis and Merrill adopted a baby boy Michael in and Davis appeared in a Broadway revue Two s Company directed by Jules Dassin She was uncomfortable working outside of her area of expertise she had never been a musical performer and her limited theater experience had been more than years earlier She was also severely ill and was operated on for osteomyelitis of the jaw Margot was diagnosed as severely brain damaged due to an injury sustained during or shortly after her birth and was eventually placed in an institution Davis and Merrill began arguing frequently with B D later recalling episodes of alcohol abuse and domestic violence Few of Davis films of the s were successful and many of her performances were condemned by critics The Hollywood Reporter wrote of mannerisms "that you d expect to find in a nightclub impersonation of Davis " while the London critic Richard Winninger wrote "Miss Davis with more say than most stars as to what films she makes seems to have lapsed into egoism The criterion for her choice of film would appear to be that nothing must compete with the full display of each facet of the Davis art Only bad films are good enough for her " Her films of this period included The Virgin Queen Storm Center and The Catered Affair As her career declined her marriage continued to deteriorate until she filed for divorce in The following year her mother died During the same time she tried television appearing in three episodes of the popular NBC western Wagon Train as three different characters in and her first appearance on TV had been February on General Electric Theatre In Davis a registered Democrat appeared at the Democratic National Convention in Los Angeles California where she met future President John F Kennedy whom she greatly admired Renewed success – edit Davis received her final Academy Award nomination for her role as demented Baby Jane Hudson in What Ever Happened to Baby Jane opposite Joan CrawfordIn Davis opened in the Broadway production The Night of the Iguana to mostly mediocre reviews and left the production after four months due to "chronic illness " She then joined Glenn Ford and Ann Margret for the Frank Capra film A Pocketful of Miracles a remake of Capra s film Lady for a Day based on a story by Damon Runyon She accepted her next role in the Grand Guignol horror film What Ever Happened to Baby Jane

would still like to refilm a scene from The Letter to which Davis nodded Jane Fonda Henry Fonda Natalie Wood and Olivia de Havilland were among the performers who paid tribute with de Havilland

Davis to follow suit With her health stable she traveled to England to film the Agatha Christie mystery Murder with Mirrors Upon her return she learned that Hyman had published a memoir My Mother s Keeper in which she chronicled a difficult mother daughter relationship and depicted scenes of Davis overbearing and drunken behavior Several of Davis friends commented that Hyman s depictions of events were not accurate one said "so much of the book is out of context " Mike Wallace rebroadcast a Minutes interview he had filmed with Hyman a few years earlier in which she commended Davis on her skills as a mother and said that she had adopted many of Davis principles in raising her own children Critics of Hyman noted that Davis had financially supported the Hyman family for several years and

nothing about the kind of book it is I will never recover as completely from B D s book as I have from the stroke Both were shattering experiences " Her memoir concluded with a letter to her daughter in which she addressed her several times as "Hyman " and described her actions as "a glaring lack of loyalty and thanks for the very privileged life I feel you have been given" She concluded with a reference to the title of Hyman s book "If it refers to money if my memory serves me right I ve been your keeper all these many years I am continuing to do so as my name has made your book about me a success " Davis appeared in the television film As Summers Die and Lindsay Anderson s film The Whales of August in which she played the blind sister of Lillian Gish Though in poor health at the time Davis memorized her own and everyone else s lines as she always had The film earned good reviews with one critic writing "Bette crawls across the screen like a testy old hornet on a windowpane snarling staggering twitching—a symphony of misfired synapses " Her last performance was the title role in Larry Cohen s Wicked Stepmother By this time her health was failing and after disagreements with Cohen she walked off the set The script was rewritten to place more emphasis on Barbara Carrera s character and the reworked version was released after Davis death Tomb of Bette DavisAfter abandoning Wicked Stepmother and with no further film offers though she was keen to play the centenarian in Craig Calman s The Turn Of The Century and worked with him on adapting the stage play to a feature length screenplay Davis appeared on several talk shows and was interviewed by Johnny Carson Joan Rivers Larry King and David Letterman discussing her career but refusing to discuss her daughter Her appearances were popular Lindsay Anderson observed that the public enjoyed seeing her behaving "so bitchy " He commented "I always disliked that because she was encouraged to behave badly

Italia from Italy and the Film Society of Lincoln Center Lifetime Achievement Award She collapsed during the American Cinema Awards in and later discovered that her cancer had returned She recovered

Angeles alongside her mother Ruthie and sister Bobby with her name in larger type size On her tombstone is written "She did it the hard way " an epitaph that she mentioned in her memoir Mother Goddam as having been suggested to her by Joseph L Mankiewicz shortly after they had filmed All About Eve Reception and legacy edit As early as Graham Greene summed Davis up "Even the most inconsiderable film seemed temporarily better than they were because of that precise nervy voice the pale ash blond hair the popping neurotic eyes a kind of corrupt and phosphorescent prettiness I would rather watch Miss Davis than any number of competent pictures " In Jack Warner spoke of the "magic quality that transformed this sometimes bland and not beautiful little girl into a great artist " and in a interview Davis remarked that unlike many of her contemporaries she had forged a career without the benefit of beauty She admitted she was terrified during the making of her earliest films and that she became tough by necessity "Until you re known in my profession as a monster you are not a star " she said " but I ve never fought for anything in a treacherous way I ve never fought for anything but the good of the film " During the making of All About Eve Joseph L Mankiewicz told her of the perception in Hollywood that she was difficult and she explained that when the audience saw her on screen they did not consider that her appearance was the result of numerous people working behind the scenes If she was presented as "a horse s ass forty feet wide and thirty feet high " that is all the audience "would see or care about " While lauded for her achievements Davis and her films were sometimes derided Pauline Kael described Now Voyager as a "shlock classic " and by the mid s her sometimes mannered and histrionic performances had become the subject of caricature Edwin Schallert for the Los Angeles Times praised Davis s performance in Mr Skeffington while observing "the mimics will have more fun than a box of monkeys imitating Miss Davis " and Dorothy Manners at the Los Angeles Examiner said of her performance in the poorly received Beyond the Forest "no night club caricaturist has ever turned in such a cruel imitation of the Davis mannerisms as Bette turns on herself in this one " Time magazine noted that Davis was compulsively watchable even while criticizing her acting technique summarizing her performance in Dead Ringer with the observation "her acting as always isn t really acting it s shameless showing off But just try to look away "

She attracted a following in the gay subculture and was frequently imitated by female impersonators such as Tracey Lee and Charles Pierce Attempting to explain her popularity with gay audiences the journalist Jim Emerson wrote "Was she just a camp figurehead because her brittle melodramatic style of acting hadn t aged well Or was it that she was Larger Than Life a tough broad who had survived Probably some of both " Davis s film choices were often unconventional she sought roles as manipulators and killers in an era when actresses usually preferred to play sympathetic characters and she excelled in them She favored authenticity over glamour and was willing to change her own appearance if it suited the character Claudette Colbert commented that Davis was the first actress to play roles older than herself and therefore did not have to make the difficult transition to character parts as she aged Davis s signature and handprints at Grauman s Chinese TheatreAs she entered old age Davis was acknowledged for her achievements John Springer who had arranged her speaking tours of the early s wrote that despite the accomplishments of many of her contemporaries Davis was "the star of the thirties and into the forties " achieving notability for the variety of her characterizations and her ability to assert herself even when her material was mediocre Individual performances continued to receive praise in Bill Collins analyzed The Letter and described her performance as "a brilliant subtle achievement " and wrote "Bette Davis makes Leslie Crosbie one of the most extraordinary females in movies " In a review for All About Eve Roger Ebert noted "Davis was a character an icon with a grand style so even her excesses are realistic " In Premiere magazine ranked her portrayal of Margo Channing in the film as fifth on their list of " Greatest Performances of All Time " commenting "There is something deliciously audacious about her gleeful willingness to play such unattractive emotions as jealousy bitterness and neediness " While reviewing What Ever Happened to Baby Jane in Ebert asserted that "no one who has seen the film will ever forget her " A few months before her death in Davis was one of several actors featured on the cover of Life magazine In a film retrospective that celebrated the films and stars of Life concluded that Davis was the most significant actress of her era and highlighted Dark Victory as one of the most important films of the year Her death made front page news throughout the world as the "close of yet another chapter of the Golden Age of Hollywood " Angela Lansbury summed up the feeling of those of the Hollywood community who attended her memorial service commenting after a sample from Davis s films were screened that they had witnessed "an extraordinary legacy of acting in the twentieth century by a real master of the craft " that should provide "encouragement and illustration to future generations of aspiring actors " In Davis became the first woman to be honored with the AFI Life Achievement Award In the American Film Institute published its list of the "AFI s Years Stars " which was the result of a film industry poll to determine the " Greatest American Screen Legends" in order to raise public awareness and appreciation of classic film Of the actresses listed Davis was ranked at number two behind Katharine Hepburn The United States Postal Service honored Davis with a commemorative postage stamp in marking the th anniversary of her birth The stamp features an image of her in the role of
