I've seen All About Eve, was cool enough with the ending. I saw Baby Jane twice... and I really didn't like it either time.

I think Everyone was happy with OF HUMAN BONDAGE finale

! AAE is excellent and WHTBJ hasn't aged well.
THE BAD SEED (1956). Not as good as when I was 9...Patty McCormick is creepy as the seemingly "perfect"little girl who has seriously sociopathic tendencies, as well as being cloying...can almost see her as a VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED child. Biggest problem with the whole film is it's very stagey and pretty much moves like the play. Nancy Kelly for one is so manic in so many scenes that the impact is lost...also a very unflattering hairstyle/dress sense, reminding Me of late Judy Garland; and She was an attractive woman. For Me, the best scenes involve Eileen Heckart (Oscar winner for 1972's BUTTERFLYS ARE FREE), whose drunken grief is almost overpowering. ***
