For this particular review, I have chosen to render my critique - in description of this timeless masterpiece - with a word from each letter of its title: What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?
An opus of epic proportions, the tour de force performances in this cinematic icon relay what is:
Warped. Hellish. Atrocious. Tumultuous.
Evil. Vile. Envious. Ruthless.
Hostile. Abhorrent. Perverse. Paranoid. Enraged. Nightmarish. Erroneous. Depraved.
Terrifying. Ominous.
Brutal. Apprehensive. Backstabbing. Yucky.
Jealousy. Abominable. Nefarious. Egotistical.
...And there you have it, folks. A single word from every letter of the title to describe the ice-cold spirit of the one and ONLY What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?
This Robert Aldrich-directed, old era silver screen jewel is a phenomenal feature of cinematic art, and a legendary masterwork of prestige. Superb performances by the real-life archenemies, Davis and Crawford. Absolutely superb!
Way beyond worthy of its 5 of 5 stars rating.
