What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? (1962)
Equal parts campy, discomfiting and genuinely scary, “What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?” is a fiendishly entertaining flick. It’s about a pair of actor sisters, one of whom holds the other captive, torturing her for her own corrupted sense of fulfillment. The film plays extremely well without any sense of context, but if you know that the actors Bette Davis and Joan Crawford hated each other in real life, it plays even harder. if you dig it, check out director Robert Aldrich’s spiritual sequel, “Hush… Hush, Sweet Charlotte.”
