(1962) Holiday for Freudians, as the screen’s greatest sadist teams up with its greatest masochist: grotesque ex-child star Bette Davis fills those empty hours by tormenting wheelchair-bound ex-screen idol sibling Joan Crawford. “They really detested each other,” remarked director Aldrich. Even more so when Bette was Oscar-nominated and Joan wasn’t! DCP. Approx. 135 min.
These special screenings on the 40th anniversary of Joan’s death will be introduced by her grandson Casey LaLonde, who will present excerpts from Crawford’s 1962 memoir A Portrait of Joan (read by Joan herself!) and her 1971 advice book My Way of Life (available in a brand new edition at our concession) at both screenings. Legend-in-his-own-right drag artist, musician, writer, and actor John “Lypsinka” Epperson will offer his own tribute (7 pm show only).
