Bette Davis

Dick interviews legendary actress Bette Davis. The two-time Oscar winner reads a scene (with Dick) from "Dark Victory" (1939) and sings, "They're Either Too Young or Too Old" and "Hush, Hush Sweet Charlotte". Reflecting on a 43 year career, Miss Davis comments on notables like Errol Flynn ("He thought I was a fool for working so hard") and Greta Garbo ("It's my dying ambition to meet her") and recites her favorite line: "I'd love to kiss you, but I just washed my hair." Also Whitney Stine, author of a recent Davis biography.
