Bette Davis: Larger Than Life (2017)

6.0/10 • 52 min • Documentary TV Movie

Overview

Bette Davis is the most disturbing film diva Hollywood has ever seen. Her life and her roles reflect the fractures in the American image of women. She was dominant, intelligent, sometimes heartless and yet above all she wanted to be loved. This did not work out in her private life. She was too strong for the men. But the public always loved her!
