Bette [Davis] and I are good friends. There's nothing I wouldn't say to her face - both of them.
I loved working with Bette Davis. Bette Davis was great to work with and a wonderful teacher, and very kind to me. We became good friends.
When I first watched Bette Davis in 'All About Eve', I was struck by how much I felt that she is Margo Channing and that she's Bette Davis, where she was able to do both, where you're like, 'What an icon.'
I was very much raised by my grandmother, who actually was Bette Davis - looked like her, acted like her, talked like her. Probably, it was just out of my love and affection for my grandmother that I was interested in Bette.
Look, you're either loved or hated. Which is a good thing, as Bette Davis used to say.
I only wrote two fan letters in my life. One was to Bette Davis. And one was to Ron Palillo, who played Horshack on 'Welcome Back, Kotter.' And Ron did not write me back, but Bette Davis did.
Bette Davis is my hero. I'm obsessed with her. I base everything I do on her.
Bette Davis, she was so brilliant and one of my heroes, but she worked a ton, and then she didn't get All About Eve [1950] until the last minute. Claudette Colbert was supposed to be Margo Channing, but then she broke her back and couldn't do it. That allowed Davis to play her age.
Bette Davis in All About Eve was huge for me. Her acting was staggering.
I don't think I have the image that say, Judy Garland has, or Bette Davis.
One of my favorite movies is Bette Davis in 'All About Eve,' and it is shocking there was no pressure on her to be likable.
Bette Davis was a close friend. She loved to have a good time.
My mom's one of the toughest ladies I know. I've seen her lose both her brothers, both her parents. She's been through a lot, and to see her get up every day and put a smile on her face, that shows nothing but strength.
There's like this great thing that Bette Davis said when someone asked her, "How do you get into Hollywood?" "Take Fountain!"
I think one of my biggest influences is Bette Davis. I've seen almost every one of her films, and she's been very inspiring to me.
I adore Bette Davis and Vivien Leigh, but more because they were good actresses. That's what makes me interested in them, that they didn't present themselves as idols; they were just doing their jobs.
