What Ever Happened To Baby Jane? (1962) feat. Tyrone Williams
2023-05-10
Chop up those rats and tomatoes and practice your vaudeville act because we're joined by guest Tyrone Williams to discuss Robert Aldrich's What Ever Happened To Baby Jane? (1962).
Obviously the "feud" looms large over this film, so Trace has done a mega deep dive into the careers of both Joan Crawford and Bette Davis, this production and what followed.
Plus: overusing the word "cloche", Oscar talk, a neat vs on the rocks hard liquor tangent, accusations of familiarity, a queer reading of Edwin, and debate about whether Blanche lives or dies.
