I actually found this movie version a tad more interesting than the play version that I saw. They added a love interest for the young daughter and he was a goof which lightened the mood at times with some comedy.

She can be such a greedy woman and again she gets what she deserves. Her brothers are no better but her daughter loves her dad so much. She has no guilt and it shows in the movie when she tries to kill her husband and does. A must see.

The consummate actress Bette Davis in my favorite of all her films is so at home in this (once again) domineering female role of Regina Giddens whose ambition spelt the doom of three men.
Baby Jane Hudson could very well be her great grand daughter!
