Dang, I interviewed Bette Davis not long before Ryan did. Then, a few years back I interviewed Ryan. But I never knew he had been a journalist and that we had that one same experience -- wish we could go back and compare notes from 1989!
Ryan Murphy killed it with Feud. Thank you Mr. Murphy. I have one more episode to watch and I loved every moment. It also made me intersted in watching many of both Joan and Bette's films. I was more familair with Bette's films than Joan's. All in all Mr. Murhhy has a hit franchise on this series.
Regina Phalange What? everyone of those ladies has a Oscar. Catherine zeta Jones won her Oscar in 2003 for the movie musical Chicago) Jessica lange won two oscar's, one in 1982 for best supporting actress in Tootsie) and the other Oscar she won for Best actress in 1995 for blue sky) Susan Surrandon won her Oscar in 1996 for Dead man walking) ...so they all have Oscars...its literally a cast of extraordinary Oscar winners. the most established actress of all of them is Susan Surrandon who is considered one of the top great actresses along with Jessica Lange. I would love for Ryan Murphy to put Meryl Streep and viola Davis on one of his projects.
Love your work Ryan :) Indeed, I'm an AHS fan & ecstatic to see Jessica back with an awesome cast. Feud is groovy. i dig your experiences with Bette Davis. If she cld see you now, it wld read "You're sweet and very talented! Bette Davis
the guy is a huge visionary, it's impressive how he managed to pull off so many crazy ideas for shows, that can only come from a fan, and make them reality. true creativeness. he should really leave the AHS franchise though and move on. he is much better with reenactments like this and oj.
Could it be that Bette was simply pulling his leg about "petting" the Oscar?! It seems rather far fetched that she was being at all serious. She was offered by the Academy to have it reglazed, but declined because she said it showed the hard work underneath the gloss. Interestingly, Crawford DID have hers regladed when it faded. Just an interesting footnote to how different these two remarkable women were to each other.
Was that interview ever published? I can't find a trace of it, not even information confirming it was published in any paper. I love Feud and Ryan's tv work overally, but he's been known to have vivid imagination and say many things just to impress/surprise people, that turned out to be far from the truth.
Bette said that Faye was the most unprofessional actor she worked with. Always holding up the cast and crew,not on time etc. She did say that Joan was a professional,on time,knew her lines but they were of different personalitys. Miriam Hopkins was the only other actress of that time she did not like. Bette had slept with Miriams director husband on one of Bettes films. When this was said to have occurred Bette was going through a divorce and obviously Miriam wasn't keeping her hubby happy. Miriam also starred in an off Broadway version of Jezebel. Bette did the movie and won an oscar and she didn't like that. Anyway Bette Davis is Great!
because as Ryan talked to bette 1 out of 5 people so we're talking Oliva De Haviland, Joan Crawford, Jack Warner and Bob Aldrich Ryan is mainly gonna write from a Bette Davis perspective isnt he. Whether he spoke to Olivia De Haviland before writing FEUD I dont know but Oliva wasn't impressed by the show either. I dont know about u but whether true or false I love old fashioned Hollywood biopical film's and TV shows
I really didn’t like it at all. The impersonations ONE WORSE THAN THE OTHER !!!!!, Jessica Lange and Susan Sarandon looked like they were in costumes and Catherine Zeta Jones looked like anything but Olivia de Havilland. The performances of the first 2 mediocre and very bad and artificial that of CZJ. Really to FORGET.
"Jessica Lange! DO NOT PROTEND you don' watch televison with your oscars. OMG ....... haha I'm dead!
I laughed out loud. "Jessica thinks it's sad to pet your Oscar, and I think it's joyful to pet your Oscar." Haaaaaaaaa!
she lick them as she watch tv
I could listen to Ryan Murphy's "Bette Davis" stories ALL day...really, I could. I wished the interviewer hadn't kept cutting him off!

Ya we're gonna need the full interview at this point
I had a friend who wrote several letters that were each a couple of pages long to Bette Davis. She replied back to him in a card that he framed.
Stars like Bette and Joan appreciated their fans.....and were gracious to enth degree
WHERE CAN I GET THIS ENTIRE INTERVIEW??
right????
4:06
*Everyone laughing*
Susan: damn I wish I had an oscar.

D G.G. Haha, dead man walking, just realised.
Susan does have an Oscar
Regina Phalange What? everyone of those ladies has a Oscar. Catherine zeta Jones won her Oscar in 2003 for the movie musical Chicago) Jessica lange won two oscar's, one in 1982 for best supporting actress in Tootsie) and the other Oscar she won for Best actress in 1995 for blue sky)

June giovani as I said, I realised that.

Feud was a fantastic show. Bravo to the cast of Feud. A great unique show... Awesome plot for an 8 part mini story.

no, oj was very boring, ahs got very inovative in s6 and feud is great
wow what a great story ,how lucky was he to get to meet her .
That was great!
At 2:46, Ryan mentions Faye Dunaway, so all the nasty rumors about Faye are true!
Bette talks about it in a Tonight Show visit with Johnny Carson. The video is here on TH-cam...and she doesn't mince her words.

I would love to have seen the faces of SS and JL when he mentioned Faye Dunaway.
Susan might have been having a bad day, but she comes across as humorless.
You think? She actually thinks her singing in Rocky Horror Picture Show was good
shes 70 here doing all these non stop promos stfu

If Ryan knew Bette so well, then why was FUED so inaccurate with details?

You can tell Jessica does NOT wanna be there! lol
