Ms. de Havilland considered Ms. Davis a close friend, so the compilation of videos of Ms. Olivia expressing her feelings of her here is good to watch. I thank you for sharing.
My mother was named after Bette Davis although that wasn't her real name my grandmother my mom's mom named but I didn't know that until a few years ago that her real name was Ruth Elizabeth Davis but my mom despised her and didn't like her not her movies my late mom was born in 1938 I like to watch her in some of her movies but she was such a b**ch and just plain evil and treacherous but she was a great actress and I don't understand her feud with Joan Crawford or was that done sort of a publicity stunt or was it really real!
It amazes me how beautiful she has remained, not only her looks but she's refined and has a grace about her that together....retains her true beauty inside and out.
Oh yes I agree.Listening to the sort of upbringing they both had via her sister Joan Fontaine it is not surprising they had a wonderful family upbringing and cultivated from a very early age beautifully educated and accomplished.They both had self respect ingrained into them and it shows.
What a difference between Bette and Olivia versus Bette and Joan crawford.....Olivia was a lovely and amazing woman who wasn't jealous of Bette but embraced her fantastic talent, so nice to see such love and admiration for one another, ..seemed to be rare from that era.🌹
@lindaackerman3507.I NOW BETTE AND JOAN NEVER GOT ON BUT BOTH WERE GREAT ACTRESSESS. REST IN PEACE TO THEM GODBLESS THEM BOTH 🙏🙏AMEN REST IN PEACE ❤❤💐💐🕊🕊🦋🦋🌹🌹
She would disagree with you. Ha. She knew some of her movies weren't good. That's why she went on a one-woman strike. But I totally agree that there will never be another like her and she DEFINITELY deserved more than 2 Oscars. =D
You guys are gonna get so mad but I don’t really like Bette Davis. I find her weird but I want to like her. I’ve seen her in the Baby Jane movie but I’m wondering if there’s other movies I should watch in order to appreciate her??
@@DonnaChamberson Maybe you could try her earlier works, All About Eve, Dark Victory, Watch on the Rhine, Little Foxes, The Letter, Now Voyager, The Petrified Forest, Marked Woman, The Great Lie, if you want to see her do comedy try The Bride Came C.O.D.. She did a lot of great movies and even when they’re not great she’s still great in them. She gave her all no matter how silly the plots were and even if she hated doing them.
*Lol no. She was a great actress on her own, but she was eclipsed, always, in all aspects, by the great Katharine Hepburn--as an actress and as a person.*
Olivia and Bette became so very close. She was quite honestly the best friend that Bette had coming through her years in Hollywood. They remained close until Bette’s death in 1989.
Olivia is pure class. No one speaks or carries themselves in that way anymore, which is a shame. I wonder if we will ever return to a more civilized way of conducting ourselves?
We will NEVER return to any aspect of civilized life, refined culture, or craftsmanship that we had up to the 1960's. As Andy Rooney, the prophet of 60 minutes remarked, everything will just continue to get worse.
Chiara Offreduccio Honestly, I sensed it early on. She was too meek and shy..ppl like that harbor anger as well as hurt. Plus she was bound to inherit some of her dads charateristics. But i agree..it was a stunning onscreen transformation
Bette’s so generous with compliments, she’s always saying how pretty and good looking other actresses were even the ones she wasn’t friends with. Anyway I’m grateful Olivia’s her friend. She stuck with her and always had the nicest things to say about her. Thank you Ms. Olivia for loving Bette ❤️ They’re so cute together I don’t often see Bette being like this with others 💖 and it’s true, Bette played real human beings, she wasn’t known for getting glamorized and having trademark glamor looks. She played evil, old, hideous, innocent, naive, angelic roles.
Luvved better since I was 14 and me and my mum would watch her films they showed usually on a Sunday afternoon I'm now 47, I adore her!! "I can show an emotion with my back!"...
Olivia told me she believed her performance in "Snake Pit" was her best. I believe her performance in "Hush...hush Sweet Charlotte" was her best in that she portrayed a villainous woman who plotted against an innocent mentally disturbed woman. Very unique and not the 'nice' part like Melanie in "Gone with the Wind". A most wonderful and talented lady.
'Snake Pit' is a pretty f.u.ed movie that ripped the web of lies off the way mental illness (especially among women) was mistreated, abused, required little more than a man to say, "She's CRAZY" for a woman to lose all automony.
Unfortunately it was because of movies like Snake Pit, that we as a society decided "insane asylums" were cruel and unusal so now we have all these random crazy people running loose and wild and killing innocent people
I never knew that Olivia and Leslie Howard did another picture together. I’ll always think of them as Melanie and Ashley. Davis was brilliant in so many pictures.
Why they cast Catherine Zeta Jones to play this woman in Feud I will never know. Minus the fact there is zero resemblance between the two, her portrayal was closer to a mousy, air-headed whispery version of Marilyn Monroe than the classy and forthright Olivia de Havilland.
I agree. Olivia actually sued FX and Ryan Murphy for defamation over the way they portrayed her in Feud. They didn't consult her or ask her permission to use her name and likeness. She originally won her lawsuit, but unfortunately she lost after FX and Murphy appealed the case. It's amazing that she filed suit at 101 years old to protect her reputation. She will be 103 this July.
Couldn’t agree more! She’d have been much better portrayed by someone like Naomi Watts or Tea Leoni. Catherine pissed me off in that role. Thank god she wasn’t in it much.
@@katycheeseburger umm Naomi or Tea look anything like Olivia di, nor would they have brought anymore to the table than Catherine did lol, (I think all three are talented but still)
Amazing what Olivia De Havilland said about Greta Garbo, she was absolutely right! Greta Garbo was the definition of glamorous but Bette Davis was playing real human beings. I’ve always noted the same thing about those actresses, they had different styles of acting and all of them were unique in their own way.
Dame Olivia has just sued the creators of Feud for her portrayal, which, as she claims, "couldn't be further from thruth". Ms. de Havilland claims she would never use a word 'bitch' in a conversation, and she was deeply upset when Catherine Zeta-Jones portraying her, used such word.
Ever since the end of censorship in the 1960s, modern film producers seem compelled to make things "realistic" by including vulgar language and sex acts. Back in the golden years of Hollywood, that was not permitted. I grew up watching the old movies and prefer their subtlety. If I wanted things to be "realistic," I'd drive down to Walmart and watch people at the checkout counter.
LoveFlatfootin1 Perfectly stated. I must’ve been born in the wrong era for I love Old Hollywood. It seemed like a classier time. It was also a time when actors had to rely on true talent instead of special effects or tawdry sex scenes. The actors/actresses always looked so glamorous unlike the trash of today. I miss the likes of Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Clark Gable, Marlon Brando, Rita Hayworth, Marilyn, Cary Grant; the list can go on and on. My point is there will never be a time like the Golden Age of Hollywood. It actually saddens me when I see Kim Kardashian being touted as Hollywood royalty when she is only famous for a sex tape and a lackluster reality show. True talent is gone & trashy reality tv has taken its place. The Golden Era would be turning in their graves if they saw what constitutes as talent in today’s society.
No problem! My grandmother taught me well. She is the one who introduced me to the likes of Marilyn Monroe and that got me interested in the other players in Old Hollywood. My gram hated modern Hollywood and scoffed at the "stars" of today. She also was a one of a kind classy lady who taught me the importance of taking care of my appearance. I only wish she were still here for me for she taught me a lot.
LoveFlatfootin1 : I agree. Now they love to shock. I started to watch "Orange is the new black" and I wanted to vomit. I stopped watching it, even though there's an actress I adore. Because there were not only crude scenes of lesbian sex, but even people urinating, or going to the bathroom... It was horribly disgusting! I don't understand how people can watch such things!
Olivia comes across as a true lady ! Not a nasty Diva but a true lady ! I love the photo of the whole cast after they fired Joan holding coke bottles & smiling !
It must have felt like getting an annoying thorn removed when classless Crawford left . I say classless because her behavior was such . Walking off the set and faking an illness , leaving the cast an crew hanging
lol and you think bette's behaviour was classy? acting like a school yard bully and doing anything she could to get joan to quit? give me a break, bette was way worse then joan, taking a picture with a coke to piss joan off, imaturity at it's finest
These people and their Dynamics for the most stunning actresses in the world of all time I met Miss Davis and Palm springs at a girls grocery store humbled I was and mushy and she asked if I knew who she was and I said yes Miss Davis I do.
They say there was an uproar when Davis wasn't nominated for a Best Actress Oscar for "Of Human Bondage" and Davis was a write in for Best Actress by many. And of course her 1936 win for her 1935 film "Dangerous' was considered Bette Davis' consolation Oscar for not being nominated and winning, as she should have been for "Of Human Bondage" the previous year.
No, she wasn't nominated. A lot of Academy members wrote her name in and ultimately she came in third because of that but she was not a nominee for that movie.
I loved Bette she was my favourite actress .as she said near her end of life that was written on her grave stone"( I Did It The Hard Way ) .she wasnt a beauty but boy could she act.Rest in peace to you Bette. Godbless You Amen. You May Be Gone But Your Not Forgotten 🙏💫💫💫💫💫🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🦋🦋🦋🌹🌹🌹🌹💖
Yes i would have loved to have seen that ! Everyone knows about the fued between bette and joan, but from what ive read, it was bette who was the bigger bitch, i think joan respected bette as an actress, it was joan who sent the script of baby jane to bette toinvolve her in the project..butthings seemed to get worse between them after that film was made
Bette said later that they used a stand in so you only saw the slap from the back of her head. Bette said, "Olivia and I are great friends. But she has wanted to slap me for years, and I'm not going to give her the chance now!"
@@7777lizabeth face it...it wasn't pepsi in her glass...but i still love those joan crawford films..met her once on "the caretakers" set in 1963...i knew the dorector hall bartlett...
One nice touch from Olivia was when she recounted the two of them watching old movies and Errol Flynn was in one...davis despised Flynn, who was of course Olivia's co-star in 8 movies....during the viewing, Davis turned to Olivia and said, "I was wrong about him."
I forgot that Olivia DeHaviland in Gone with the Wind. In GWtW, Olivia was so NICE. DEAR. INNOCENT. But then, in Dark Mirror, (where she played TWINS) she was a nice girl and a scheming cow. Talk about having it both ways.
I like Bette's hair at 2:48. Around that time her hair was often styled flat to the head, which is unflattering. Here it has volume and shine. Whomever styled it did a great job. Perhaps Bette's hair was growing thin due to menopause.
I think OLIVIA de HAVILLAND OUT LIVED ALL THE OTHER STARS SHE ACTED WITH EVEN HER SISTER AT THE AGE OF 105.WOW.REST IN PEACE TO YOU OLIVIA GODBLESS YOU 🙏AMEN💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Olivia's mega 'do resembles Shana's ( Angelique Pettyjohn ) in Star Trek TOS ' Gamesters of Triskelion ' '68 I think. Enjoying the Feud clips that led me here; great ensemble work.
Anyone catch that, "Needles to say, she'll have our vote." @. 2:44-57. There would be no , "I wasn't' nominated so don't vote for her...", Baby Jane repeats from this crew. The knowing eyebrow to Olivia tells the tale.
Willie Mitchell I don’t think so. Olivia seemed to fly down that ramp and literally flung herself on Bette. It is evident, to me at least, that Bette was caught unawares. I’m sure after the show they had a cocktail or two over a good old chin-wag!
Would’ve loved for her to have this level of enthusiastic warmth and philia toward Joan Fontaine. Both of them would’ve been much better for it. A pity
Heard Bette put down Flynn's acting in Elizabeth and Essex, but looking at the picture years later changed her mind. While she thought she was pure genius, at the time, her performance has aged and Flynn's remains fresh and contemporary, even by todays standards.
I must say ... the title is slightly ‘click-bait’ (ish). Neither were considered divas (although Ms. Davis didn’t suffer fools gladly), while her good friend Olivia has always appeared as quite the opposite
I think Olivia de Havilland's acting in Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte is her best. Even more than Gone with the Wind. Too bad it isn't one of Davis's better movies.
Ms. de Havilland considered Ms. Davis a close friend, so the compilation of videos of Ms. Olivia expressing her feelings of her here is good to watch. I thank you for sharing.

Olivia's performance in The Heiress was perfection
I agree she starts out as a slightly naive young woman and by the end of the movie she is bitter and twisted.
Ditto
@@JohnLee-pt5jz in the end she sees that the 2 men in her life, her dad & her boyfriend could care less about her. They were both very cruel to her.
Love that movie!!!
Today she's 104. Happy birthday, Miss de Havilland.
she just died :(
Now she belongs to the ages.
And still beautiful until the day she died.
I have to agree with Olivia about Bettie Davis and her acting.She was fabulous! And Olivia a beautiful gem at that.Thank you for the story.
I just love Olivia! Happy Birthday Miss de Havilland! July 4th 102. Her and Bette 2 of the best EVER
What a difference between Bette and Olivia versus Bette and Joan crawford.....Olivia was a lovely and amazing woman who wasn't jealous of Bette but embraced her fantastic talent, so nice to see such love and admiration for one another, ..seemed to be rare from that era.🌹
True, and don't forget..Bette was Jealous of JOAN. Bette wasn't threatened by Olivia. Joan was a different story.
Yes Joan was definitely a different story,....Joan was on another level.
@lindaackerman3507.I NOW BETTE AND JOAN NEVER GOT ON BUT BOTH WERE GREAT ACTRESSESS. REST IN PEACE TO THEM GODBLESS THEM BOTH 🙏🙏AMEN REST IN PEACE ❤❤💐💐🕊🕊🦋🦋🌹🌹
Wow. Olivia is so incredibly beautiful. Bette Davis, we love you. This was great, thanks for posting.
I love that you make these videos, especially about the REAL divas... Hollywood’s golden age ladies!
For sure. There are some great Hollywood actresses today but they lack the charisma that the studio system could create so perfectly.
Olivia Dehaviland has aged more beautifully than any actress ever. Shes 102 and completely gorgeous 💜
Kirk Douglas' wife, Anne, looks pretty good at 100 years old too.
Get your eyes checked
She is all dried up like a mummy!
@@johnnymfan5065 she is all dried up like a mummy too!!
As has Cicely Tyson
I so love their friendship 💕
Olivia de Havilland has aged beautifully over the years. She is still stunning at 102.
2legit64 102 ! amazing
She still with us? 😲 would be nice to hear her secret of long live.
The beautiful Olivia lives in her luxury town house in Paris. She does have problems walking.
April 2020..lockdown..stay safe 🙏
Bette Davis deserved winning all of the oscars in the movies she made
There will NEVER! be another like her.🏆
She got two. The woman with the most have twice as much.
She would disagree with you. Ha. She knew some of her movies weren't good. That's why she went on a one-woman strike. But I totally agree that there will never be another like her and she DEFINITELY deserved more than 2 Oscars. =D

Olivia and Bette became so very close. She was quite honestly the best friend that Bette had coming through her years in Hollywood. They remained close until Bette’s death in 1989.
Bette's daughter "BD" said her mother didn't really care about her friendship with Olivia..that it wasn't Important to her.
I love Olivia de Havilland! She was just as gorgeous at 60 as at 23 in Gone With the Wind. She had such a great calming presence :)
Olivia is pure class. No one speaks or carries themselves in that way anymore, which is a shame. I wonder if we will ever return to a more civilized way of conducting ourselves?

Olivia de Havilland and Betty Davis las mejores amigas 🎉💗😍
Wow,what a very nice thing to say about Bette Davis. I believe it.
Thanks for these precious memories as we watch Olivia during her younger years, reflecting on her past with other cast members.
Her role in the Heiress is my favorite.
I love that movie ! I think she took the Oscar for that part . She deserves it !
One of the greatest movies ever.
Yes, indeed. She deserved the Oscar® for her riveting performance.

LOVE that movie!

Olivia, on July 26, 2020 has gone on to the ages.
How nice to see such a genuine friendship! Rare in Hollywood
...true legends...
I liked Bette Davis movies.🐱
My 2 favorite Ladies !!!! Love them Together!!!!!!!!

I love watching Davis movies. I always thought that casting Olivia de Havilland in Hush Hush, Sweet Charlotte was brilliant.
Leslie Howard and Olivia were together also in a film with Bette Davis a comedy named Its love Im after in 1937.
”Melanie and ashely”?
@@Mixedpixieshe was referring to two characters from Gone With The Wind (Ashley played by Leslie Howard and Melanie played by Olivia De Haviland)
Just Love always have & always will, Olivia Dehaviland.
Olivia is now 104! Unreal....amazing life. Davis? The greatest actress to ever live in deed. Both gave us gifts to last forever.
Thank your this compilation.
"In This Our Life" is my favourite, Bette Davis movie and it's even better with, Olivia DeHavilland!❤️
I really like In This Our Life too though interestingly I think Bette herself hated her performance in it.
yes, bette was one of the first actors to play actual people, not stilted characters
Rest In Peace, Olivia. 104 and it still seems like you’re gone too soon. ♥️
They are soooo cute! You can tell they truly adored one another
Why they cast Catherine Zeta Jones to play this woman in Feud I will never know. Minus the fact there is zero resemblance between the two, her portrayal was closer to a mousy, air-headed whispery version of Marilyn Monroe than the classy and forthright Olivia de Havilland.

Love these two together especially In "hush hush sweet Charlotte", classic movie.
Olivia is amazing - this was fun to see them in all of these clips together

She was not kind to her sister
Linda Easley .
I really do not want to be alive in 2018 any longer - I want to go back
That's how I feel about 2020... I'd rather 2018 any day than this year.
I hope things are better for you. It's been rough admittedly
These people and their Dynamics for the most stunning actresses in the world of all time I met Miss Davis and Palm springs at a girls grocery store humbled I was and mushy and she asked if I knew who she was and I said yes Miss Davis I do.
Agnes Moorehead should have won! And for Magnificent Ambersons in '42!
🤔 Bette was not nominated for an Oscar for "Of Human Bondage",1934. But should've been.
Tony Negron she didn’t say she was nominate for an *Oscar* specifically.
She was. It was her first oscar nomination in fact. She lost to Claudette Colbert for "It happened one night".
They say there was an uproar when Davis wasn't nominated for a Best Actress Oscar for "Of Human Bondage" and Davis was a write in for Best Actress by many. And of course her 1936 win for her 1935 film "Dangerous' was considered Bette Davis' consolation Oscar for not being nominated and winning, as she should have been for "Of Human Bondage" the previous year.
No, she wasn't nominated. A lot of Academy members wrote her name in and ultimately she came in third because of that but she was not a nominee for that movie.
Bette was spectacular in that film! Ferociously good & an unforgettable performance .
There’s so much rubbish talked about film star friendships. But these two certainly were lifelong friends and always shared that about each other
Bette was the greatest old school actress so was Joan Crawford.
Olivia would've seen a galaxy of stars and also rans in her many decades of acting.
I loved Bette she was my favourite actress .as she said near her end of life that was written on her grave stone"( I Did It The Hard Way ) .she wasnt a beauty but boy could she act.Rest in peace to you Bette. Godbless You Amen. You May Be Gone But Your Not Forgotten 🙏💫💫💫💫💫🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🦋🦋🦋🌹🌹🌹🌹💖
What a lovely woman.
Such a cute moment 1:32 when Olivia pulls Bette's hair..
POOR JOAN CRAWFORD QUIT HUSH, HUSH...AND DIDN'T GET A CHANCE TO SMACK DAVIS IN THE CAR SCENE...IN FACT OLIVIA SEEMED TO ENJOY HERSELF.....

Bette said later that they used a stand in so you only saw the slap from the back of her head. Bette said, "Olivia and I are great friends. But she has wanted to slap me for years, and I'm not going to give her the chance now!"
Joan instinctively knew Better Davis was her equal and she could not intimidate Bette. Others have commented Crawford was rude and temperamental!

I like Bette's hair at 2:48. Around that time her hair was often styled flat to the head, which is unflattering. Here it has volume and shine. Whomever styled it did a great job. Perhaps Bette's hair was growing thin due to menopause.
I agree the style suits her but I wonder though if it’s a wig?
Two great actresses.
I think OLIVIA de HAVILLAND OUT LIVED ALL THE OTHER STARS SHE ACTED WITH EVEN HER SISTER AT THE AGE OF 105.WOW.REST IN PEACE TO YOU OLIVIA GODBLESS YOU 🙏AMEN💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Des sous-titres en français seraient les bienvenus ; merci !
Olivia's mega 'do resembles Shana's ( Angelique Pettyjohn ) in Star Trek TOS ' Gamesters of Triskelion '
'68 I think.
Enjoying the Feud clips that led me here; great ensemble work.
@ 3:52 is exactly how melanie ran to ashley in gwtw may god bless & keep OLIVIA DE HAVILLAND
Great Great Fantastic...
Olivia's best performance was in The Snake Pit..should have bolted in for Oscar.
I think she lost to Jane Wyman for that.
RIP Miss Olivia de Havilland
Anyone catch that, "Needles to say, she'll have our vote." @. 2:44-57. There would be no , "I wasn't' nominated so don't vote for her...", Baby Jane repeats from this crew. The knowing eyebrow to Olivia tells the tale.
Olivia de Havilland looks like that alien woman in Mars Attacks when she was on This Is Your Life.

Complete with gum.
Better Davis just stood there like a statue when olivia hugged her
Mjgirl55 hi, that part was a little uncomfortable to watch I thought
Yez. I noticed that
Bette seem to have a social problem in a way especially with other women....She seem to get insecure around women who appear more beautiful then her.
Its all about pride...thats the problem 😔
Willie Mitchell I don’t think so. Olivia seemed to fly down that ramp and literally flung herself on Bette. It is evident, to me at least, that Bette was caught unawares. I’m sure after the show they had a cocktail or two over a good old chin-wag!
Almost Olivia's 104th birthday!
On Bette's episode of THIS IS YOUR LIFE, Olivia's forehead is bigger than the Louisiana Purchase.
I love Olivia but her forehead is HUGE there!!! And her hair was even bigger!!! But other than that, she was her same beautiful self!
@@jennyq4979 I can see the following message on her forehead..."This space for rent".
LOLOLOLOLOLOL! 😂😂😂😂🤣. BIG enough to park a Cadillac!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!! You guys too funny!!!!!
Awesome
I didn't know Olivia and Leslie were in another film together!
Olivia kept it 💯
Lovely, personable sounding woman, and still going at 102, amazing.
Would’ve loved for her to have this level of enthusiastic warmth and philia toward Joan Fontaine. Both of them would’ve been much better for it. A pity
The worsht title for a film ever...
6:47 - Davis was never nominated for an Oscar for Of Human Bondage. She came close but didn't get enough votes. Look it up.
Heard Bette put down Flynn's acting in Elizabeth and Essex, but looking at the picture years later changed her mind. While she thought she was pure genius, at the time, her performance has aged and Flynn's remains fresh and contemporary, even by todays standards.
I think she was jealous cause he romanced every woman , except her. She wanted him
I must say ... the title is slightly ‘click-bait’ (ish). Neither were considered divas (although Ms. Davis didn’t suffer fools gladly), while her good friend Olivia has always appeared as quite the opposite
I think Olivia de Havilland's acting in Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte is her best. Even more than Gone with the Wind. Too bad it isn't one of Davis's better movies.
