FEUD: Bette and Joan Review: Oscar Winners Jessica Lange, Susan Sarandon Turn Camp Into an Acting Master Class

.....The first season of Ryan Murphy’s new anthology series (debuting Sunday, March 5 at 10/9c) is an actor’s dream, letting Jessica Lange and Susan Sarandon rip each other to shreds and chew up every bit of scenery as dueling Hollywood divas Joan Crawford and Bette Davis. Their performances are fantastic enough to live up to the lofty billing — and to overlook some of the shakier aspects of the production.

Bette and Joan is set during the filming of the 1962 camp classic What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?, with aging stars Crawford (Lange) and Davis (Sarandon) playing dysfunctional sisters and battling each other for the spotlight. It’s meaty material, to be sure, and Murphy, who directs three of the first five episodes, has the boldly over-the-top touch to bring it to life. The decadent sets and costumes are dripping with old-Hollywood glamour, and it’s undeniably delicious to watch these two great actresses trade savage barbs back and forth like a pair of seasoned Wimbledon champs knocking a tennis ball around.

The mutual hatred between Crawford and Davis makes for tabloid headlines, so their director (Alfred Molina) and studio head Jack Warner (Stanley Tucci) stoke the feud to promote their picture. But the ladies also occasionally call a truce and join forces when they have a common foe, like when they both want a perky young blonde fired from the movie because she might pull focus away from them. The on-set intrigue is a fun peek behind the showbiz curtain, but Lange and Sarandon also make sure there’s real pain and pathos beneath all the bickering.....


in case you may have been friends with either Bette Davis or Joan Crawford..............................?!

Of course I love Bette and Joan with a passion. But Sarandon is kinda dead to me now. So there's that.

I'd see a doctor about that.

Susan was all in for Bernie, an inexcusable fault in RussWorld.

I do acknowledge that she is a fine actor. She was more than all in.

Sarandon is an idiot. She was not "all in" for Bernie or she would have followed him when he endorsed Clinton, but instead she endorsed Jill Stein, the kookbiscuit version of Harold Stassen. She said Clinton was more dangerous than Trump. She said a lot of other moronic things, as well, but you can Google it so I won't waste any more time on her.
