Who wrote the synopsis? A 7-year-old kid?

Tut tut, if you can do better, do so. And maybe it was a 7 year old! Satyricon uk 22:42, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have amended the factual errors in the plot synposis, hopefully it appears more accurate now adriang913 13/02/07

Pictures

{{help me}} There seems to be a few pictures/photos missing from this article, can anyone fix these? I'm fairly new and still on a learning curve. Thank you. Roaming27 07:05, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again Roaming! You picked the right place to put your request, however a helpme tag was not needed. Normally, the helpme tag is used to ask questions about Wikipedia and editing articles. For article requests, just putting them on the discussion page, or if you prefer finding images with free copyrights that you can use on the article are a good way to get started. --Skywolf talk/contribs 07:45, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Got a citation... not sure how to add it

I've never done this before, so go easy on me :)

The Vivien Leigh quote is in 'Bette & Joan - The Divine Feud', Page 377. Could someone either add it, or tell me how to? Paul E Nolan 14:52, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Paul, I'm still on a learning curve too. When I add a citation I type < ref >citation< ref > (without the spaces).
Then I add a reference or footnote section and add {-{-Reflist-}-} (remove the dashes). These codes will then automatically sequentially number the citations and put them in superscript. Roaming27 20:40, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Joan Crawford - fired?

I am actually, as I write this, watching a television special about this particular movie, and according to it, Joan Crawford was fired from the movie. To be more specific, I am watching a program on AMC called "Backstory"151.204.131.245 08:59, 13 January 2007 (UTC)AR[reply]

A Joan Crawford chronology here pretty much tells the story in the section 1964. Static Universe talk|edits 14:37, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Someone needs to work on this.

The beginning has some bits that are very opinionated, but I don't want to change it myself and take away what facts there are. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.14.72.182 (talk) 03:40, 15 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Victor Buono

I wrote in an edit summary: "Buono is in the 1927 prologue which does not feature Davis, not as bizarre a role as one might think". Not quite accurate, he also appears in two shots of a flashback/dream sequence with Davis' character as she appears in 1964, but not sufficiently inaccurate to resusitate the reference to the 24 year old Buono playing Bette Davis dad. In any case, a quick check reveals he must have been older when the film was shot; it was released in America on Christmas Eve 1964 and Buono was born 3 February 1938. Incidentally, I am assuming the figure of Charlotte Hollis one sees in the prologue was played by a stand in, one does not see her face, but imdb gives no credit.

Critical reception

The section headed "critical reception" cites contemporary reviews from the NY Times and Variety, a current listing from Time Out London, and evaluations by Judith Crist and Kenneth Tynan. One of these things is not like the others.Mstarli (talk) 03:51, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
