VHS Movie Reviews of In This Our Life [VHS]

Movie Review: John Huston Unleashing Bette Davis' Tantrums
Summary: 5 Stars

Director John Huston was known for having said that he let Bette Davis loose when he directed her performances. Here's a fine example. As Stanley Timberlake, a young Bette Davis is unleashed to royally throw tantrums of a very spoiled brat of a wealthy heir. Her sister, played by Olivia de Haviland usually takes the tormenting hits that Davis dishes out.

If a viewer believes Scarlet O'Hara (from "Gone with the Wind") was a spoiled Southern brat, Stanley Timberlake is the more modern day, more realistic version of that character. Davis' Stanley makes Leigh's Scarlet seem way less self-centered and as if she cared about several people other than herself. Stanely Timberlake doesn't give a hoot, frankly.

This motion picture gives an early glimpse of how great a character portrayal Davis is capable of delivering because Timberlake isn't anything like Bette Davis was in real life. So Davis had to put on an entirely different face for the camera. She did so expertly well that it is real easy to detest Stanley Timberlake and be quite satisfied with the ending (which I wouldn't dare tell!).

De Haviland's performance is nothing short of brilliant. George Brent's is quite convincing. This is a movie I hate to love.
