"There are no bullets in that gun Frank". That is a superb ending.

Bette Davis....probably hands down the best performer who ever existed......notice how effective her reactions are, she doesn't even have to be talking but you know exactly what her feeling is. Amazing.

Betty Davis commands the stage... Either you have it or you don't and Betty Davis created it!!!

Bette Davis was my favorite since l was a very young age now lam 73 years young. I could not wait to see her movies. She was my number ONE. Every movie she did l could not get enough of her only she could do her movies she had a different way of walking l saw one of her movies that she was like 18 or 20 years old. Only one Betty Davis.

I lost it when she was out on the ledge. How unnerving. Bette Davis was the greatest actress who ever lived. 25 minutes of sheer suspense. Bravo, Bette ❤️

Bette Davis wisely moved into television when her movie career cooled down. And then along came a little movie called “Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?”, putting her picture career back in gear.

Every one of these short movies is a precious gem. We can only admire them while we have them.

This is a slick 25 minute drama that nowadays would be padded out to 2 hours fifteen minutes and would be none the better for it. Everything here is established instantly and perfectly - location, character, backstory, suspense, plot twists. Totally efficient, enjoyable and fully dramatic. It was TV but no one was slumming it or doing it half heartedly, it's a great little piece.

The frantic chase for an elusive husband, takes many forms. You can feel her panic and confusion.

Only Bette Davis can pull off holding a gun in one hand, her purse in the other and look totally plausible! Thanks for this entertaining little gem!

TWENTY FIVE MINUTES and I went through an entire gamut of emotions and a complete surprise at the end.

Great one! Very Alfred Hitchcock. Bette Davis, as always, was the best.

Loved it! Much better than current tv shows!

It would be an ideal society if we have today’s modern technology along with the old days’ decorum.

Bette Davis was one fine actress. ❤

Has all the powerful of a full length movie but takes only 25 minutes to watch! Fits perfectly into my day.

High heels on the croncrete ledge 20 stories up!! 😅 Her masterful, full throttle performance, as always, captivating. I love watching her. I could marathon shorts and movies with Bette Davis all day and all night.

Love seeing these classic shows and Bette Davis is wonderful!!

Don’t you wish that the great Bette Davis did audiobooks? Can you imagine her reading “The Godfather”? Or the classic “Wuthering Heights”? A good children’s fairytale, Hansel and Gretel. That would’ve been something! But then again, just to hear Bette Davis read names and numbers from a phone book would’ve been an event.

She was extraordinary!

Better than what's on tv now.

LOL. Only Bette Davis could make an incoherent, illogical melodrama like this work! Bravo! And I know it's wrong, but I loved "Dr. Smith," hamming it up too. Thanks for posting!

Lots of twists and turns by way of plot. Top notch acting and not a wasted second. Nice to see Mr Harris from lost in Space in support

love the way bette is so precise with words 'i must see him tonight' 'i must talk to him', 'well surely he would have come back to tell me'.....makes a change from slang, swearing etc....ohh for the good old days!

Bette Davis showing how it’s done on the big screen and TV. Boom!!!!

Wow, what a twist! I didn't have a clue, but how smart she was.

Excellent screenplay and acting all around...but especially Bette Davis. She was a real Gem!

So glad to finally see some of the pilots she shot. No matter how big she was she remained in love with the work!

I think they say TV is a cool medium, and Bette had 'hot', big screen energy. But I love seeing these shows. Thank you so much!-

I knew that he was involved but I didn’t know she knew. Great twist. Betty always delivers a performance that is natural and at the same time there’s that energy of the expression of her being that entertains you.

Great acting, but wow!...an even better well written story/ plot. What a surprise ending to this great crime mystery. Thank you.

I love that she really embraced doing TV

Another Masterful Work by the Incomparable Bette Davis. Thank you for posting this.

... for all of those who are giving negative comments about an actor from the Bronx (Jonathan Harris) playing a Chinese, can’t you understand that it hasn’t been 2020 forever. And quit saying that there was racism in films ... blah blah blah. It’s called acting. It’s an industry that’s different from any other. It is an art form that is different from all the others and different from regular every day professions and work. It’s make-believe! Not only that, it’s only been within the relative past 100 or 200 years that women have been allowed and accepted to play theatrical performances as a given. Look it up! Women’s roles in ancient Greece and in Japan and even in England were performed by men. Not only that, it’s only been the past 100 or so years that to be in the theater was an unsavory career, especially for a woman. Actors and actresses had the worst reputations, and this was for the United States and Europe, although I think Europe was a bit more broad minded about the acting profession. I wish that all you people who want to clean up yesterday’s cultures using your 21st century high moral grounds had a sense of history. By the way, I think a lot of us enjoyed Jonathan Harris‘s performance. For pity’s sake, it’s a 30 minute television episode. And it reflects the time in which it was made ... and I’m happy to see Bette Davis give another good performance. Because 300 years ago, she wouldn’t have been allowed a theatrical performance. Accept history on its own terms. It is your own time of living that you can rail against and work for change.

Great, love Betty Davis!!

We lost a great treasure the day this wonderful actress drew her last breath.

Bette is and has always been my favorite actor. Hello yes.

The telephone operator is Lisa Lu who appeared in Crazy Rich Asians as Ah Ma - 60 years later!! Aki Aleong who plays the police assistant is also still acting!

That final scene! Wow!

Yes, Bette!!! What an ending!!!

I love it when a plan comes together.

Great ending..just great!!! And Jonathan Harris's makeup was crazy....

Love Bette Davis. Thank you for uploading.

Bette Davis is another actor that gives her best! Thanks 😅

Great movie, I never saw. Thank you. She was a great actresses. She didn't have to go to extremes, to get noticed, like today's actresses.

Bette Davis is very good in this show

That was smashing! I am impressed with this piece. Davis and did some smashing acting in the 50s on television. Thank you for posting. I wish we had pieces like this on television these days.

Thank you so much for this I really enjoyed this. 🤗⚘🤗⚘🤗⚘🤗⚘

Never heard of the Bette Davis show but I love it Thanks

Fabulous ,at her usual best . Glad for KZfaq to have these on as including myself had little if any Knowlodge that many the biggest movie stars did some these half hr series for tv . Work is work no matter what one does ! But seen Crawford , Allyson , since in these .

Is that Jonathan Harris? Oh, the pain! The pain!!

Love it!

there are no bullets in that gun, Frank. Amazing.

I'm going to start saying THANK YO just like Bette. Love this stuff! Do watch "The Letter". You're welcome.

That's Dr Smith from Lost in Space playing Hong Kong Sam. This was presented by General Electric Theater. In the 1950s and 1960s there were a lot of anthology series on the air with great casting and scripts.

thankyou! LOOOVE Betty Davis!!

Brilliant. Love it! Bette🥰🤗👏🏻

I instantly recognized Jonathan Harris despite the makeup.

scaling a wall in spiked heels - man what women is unbeatable!

I believe the man who played "Hong Kong Sam" also played Dr. Zachery Smith on "Lost in Space".

Good movie 🎥👌👏👍😌🙌🎥👌👏👍😌🙌🎥👌👏👍😌🙌🎥

I love the surprise ending, great story.

Loved it!! Tha k you for showing this!!!

That was really a great little movie!!!

🏆 JONATHAN HARRIS (Dr. Smith from LOST IN SPACE) Great as Chinese Man Hong Kong Sam... BETTE and JONATHAN together years before he became famous on tv having a good time hamming it up ... Another classic piece of television 📺

Thank you for uploading these rare television films! Muchas gracias!

Classy. Top cast. Great story.

Jonathan Harris steals all the scenes he's in. Great episode.

I very much enjoyed this

I just found your channel. I love Bette Davis. My favorite movie was Of Human Bondage. Thank you for uploading these movies. I intend to watch all her movies.

1. Nice to see BD looking glam. 2. She had a very masculine way of smoking. 3. Shades of her very best movie, "The Letter." 4. Bette's character has got GUTS. 5. What a WEIRD little story. Very cool.

We will be in the bar. Nuff said xx

Wonderful how it moves quick with not one but two finale surprises! Thanks, Alan Eicher.

Forrest Tucker and Bette Davis. Not a smidgeon of chemistry. And Davis - a caricature of herself. Still, campy and suspenseful as far as 30 minutes will take you and fun to watch. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Oooo I loved this!

Never saw Bette Davis and Forrest Tucker in anything together. How novel.

wow Bette Davis was just a brilliant actor.

Yes, love this davis gem!

Quite a surprise ending,Wonderful!!!!!

Go Bette

Betty Davis WE LOVE YOU x

Bette did quite a lot of tv back then.. I recognized Johnathan Harris behind the "yellow face" makeup.

These are so good!
