A strong-willed, independent woman with heavy-cast eyes, clipped New England diction, and distinctive mannerisms, Bette Davis left an indelible mark on cinema history as being one of Hollywood's most important and decorated actresses. #SummerUnderTheStars

What is the first film you think of when you see BETTE DAVIS?

[Marshall Julius @MarshallJulius]

Remembering brilliant, blunt and brazenly batty Bette Davis, born today in 1908. "I have been uncompromising, peppery, intractable, monomaniacal, tactless, volatile and off-times disagreeable. I suppose I'm larger than life."

[BBC Arts @bbcarts]

🎂 Bette Davis was born #OnThisDay in 1908. 👀

Watch @annabdemented's Inside Cinema celebration of the uncompromising and trailblazing Hollywood icon. 👁���👁️

[TCM @tcm]

Bette Davis and director William Wyler on the set of JEZEBEL ('38) – their first of three films together.

Winning Best Actress for this film, Davis went on to receive an Oscar nomination for every project she worked on with Wyler.

See it this morning at 11am ET. #31DaysofOscar

SURPRISE!

"The Jezebel Blend" is an homage to the iconic Bette Davis.

The coffee is a Monsooned Malabar medium roast - beans withstand monsoon winds & rains causing beans to swell, lose acidity, & create a new full-bodied flavor profile.
In short, they did it the hard way. 😉☕️

“He (Wyler) wanted a complete establishment of character with one gesture. I sweated through forty-five takes and he finally got it the way he wanted, or at least he said so, in his very noncommittal way.”

"I was still an innocent and yet Mildred's machinations I miraculously understood... I suppose no amount of rationalization can change the fact that we are all made up of good and evil."
