From Bette Davis' first Oscar win in 1935 to Joan Crawford's death in 1977, these two Hollywood divas waged a bitter personal feud competing for acting roles, top billing, Academy Awards and men. BitchSlap! is a comedic take on the long-running dispute with a memorable behind-the-scenes look at the star's double billing on the 1962 classic Whatever Happened To Baby Jane?. Egging the celluloid luminaries on is reigning gossip queen Hedda Hopper, publishing and profiting from her notes on Davis' notorious one-liners and Crawford's sly maneuvering.

I found this documentary informative and sad.
One thing I din't like was that Odalys Nanin the owner of Macha Theater cut off the A/Q because she said she was hungry. That was rude. This lady definitely doesn't have any manners at all.

Reminded me of what one heard from East German students and others behind the Iron Curtain some 25 years ago. One probably hears softer versions of this in the Middle East today.

Wish they had interviewed parents and grandparents...did the revolution's cause die for them, too?

Interesting post-event discussion... but too much was in Spanish for those of us who are limited to English.
