What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?

“I’ve written a letter to Daddy…” Beyond the actual onscreen chemistry (and legendary off screen fireworks) between icons Bette Davis and Joan Crawford in Robert Aldrich‘s WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? lies the film itself – a bona fide, highly creepy-campy, edge-of-your-set thriller about a former child
