Bette Davis

Más información sobre el libro

�She could look demure while behaving like an empress. Blonde, with eyes like pearls too big for her head, she was very striking, but marginally pretty and certainly not beautiful � But it was her edge that made her memorable � her upstart superiority, her reluctance to pretend deference to others.� Bette Davis was the commanding figure of the great era of Hollywood stardom, with a drive and energy that put her contemporaries in the shade. She played queens, jezebels and bitches, she could out-talk any male co-star, she warred with her studio, Warner Bros, worked like a demon, got through four husbands, was nominated for seven Oscars and � no matter what � never gave up fighting. This is her story.
