PREVIEW: WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO BETTE & JOAN

Critic, blogger, and podcaster Frank Calvillo examines the later careers of Bette Davis and Joan Crawford following the success of 1962’s What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? and the resurgence in popularity it brought. In looking at the various roles the two actresses took on throughout the 1960s and beyond, we also uncover how both had more in common than audiences (or even they themselves) realized. Check out this preview of the upcoming miniseries.

YOUR HOST

Frank Calvillo (Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad)

Born and raised in South Texas, Frank currently lives in Austin and has been in love with movies ever since his father showed him some Three Stooges shorts when he was five years old. Today he loves all kinds of film, regardless of era, country, budget or genre. He believes every film has an audience and is at least one person’s favorite movie. After writing for Sight & Sound and Slackerwood, he now writes for Cinapse where his increasingly random taste in all flavors of cinema (from Rashomon to Mars Attacks!) continues to thrive. His ultimate goal is to write a script for his boyhood crush, Michelle Pfeiffer.
