Book Review of Bette And Joan: The Divine Feud

Bette And Joan: The Divine Feud
Readnmachine avatar reviewed on + 1440 more book reviews


Deliciously dishy tale of the 40+ year feud between actresses Bette Davis and Joan Crawford. Packed full of name-dropping and "insider" information, often self-contradictory but always entertaining.

Movie buffs will revel at the glimpses of Big Name Stars like Gable, Bogart, Hepburn, and Monroe. Fans of the wickedly honed bon mot will relish the verbal barbs these two outspoken women shot at each other. And both groups will be combing Netflix archives to get their hands on many of the films mentioned.

Includes 14 pages of photos, including movie stills, candids, and publicity shots.
