Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte (DVD, 2005)

Black and White Suspense film. Originally this was supposed to be the sequel to
"What Ever Happened to Baby Jane" but plans changed. I actually enjoyed this one better than "Baby Jane" yet "Baby Jane" is considered the classic. This story is about two sisters. One of them is trying to drive the other one crazy..the other sister is not all there to begin with (Bette Davis) so it doesn't take much. Entertaining. Worth a Look!

I finally got to buy a movie that I have been wanting to see for 27 years. The price was right and so was the timing. It is a good movie.....

A spinster haunted by memories of her murdered fiance. Charlotte, whose only social contact is with her maid, Velma (Agnes Moorehead), is crushed to learn that the state wants to tear down her mansion and put up a highway in its place. She calls on her cousin Miriam (Olivia de Havilland) for help, but Miriam fails to offer any assistance other than bringing in the family physician (Joseph Cotten) to have her troubled relative committed. As the nightmares of her fiance continue to haunt her, Charlotte ends up fighting not only for the Hollis estate but for her sanity as well.

Black and White a GREAT CLASSIC!
Davis begun in the terrifying smash hit WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? Davis heads up the stellar cast (which includes Bruce Dern and George Kennedy in small, early roles and Mary Astor in her last film appearance) with a performance that radiates desperation, entrapment, and inevitable collapse. HUSH...HUSH, SWEET CHARLOTTE provides a chilling investigation of a heartbreakingly demented mind.

This is ONE MOVIE that never goes out of style! In my opinion it should never be remastered in Color, that would take away from the whole movie. Some things are better left alone, as they were meant to be. This is one of them. Some may disagree but it's all in ones taste. Any and all classics should be as they were from the beginning, true to life.

Take a look at this film, you will watch it again and again!!

This is a very suspense packed thriller! Bette Davis is at her best as usual. Great performance from Olivia Dehaviland ,Agnes moorehead and Joseph Cotten as well... I have seen this movie 10 times at least and never tired of it! Highly recommend it!

What I love most is how Betty Davis acts. She is the most amazing actress i have ever seen! The movie goes amazing with the plot and the acting... It keeps you in suspence most times and it kind of creepy but in a really good way..

this movie is a great movie,a old movie with alot of great stars,betty davis was fitting for this movie,she played a part, that we today play apart of everyday,struggling for a place to live,but losing in the end.but she didn't lose in the end,sure she lost her love,but she is set free in the end,knowing she did not kill him.i bought it because i wanted it on dvd,already recorded it off of tv on vhs a long time ago.

This classic thriller never ceases to excite. Bette Davis was quite an actress, and seeing the black and white movie with her reminds you that you don't have to have every detail spelled out for you.

I loved this movie as a child and watched it with my mother just so we could be scared together. I thought of it one day and decided to check ebay for it. Of course it was there. Now mother and I can be scared together again. I got it at a low price and it was new. I am very pleased to have this copy for my collection.

While I personally preferred her in "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?", this is a fine example of Bette Davis' range as an actress. This film definitely has it all,...greed and jealousy, lust, betrayal, deception, and finally, murder. If you like the films of this generation and genre then this one is a must see.

Great movie if you like the old black and whites. Betty Davis makes a great physco. The movie is slow at times but for the year it was made, it was a good movie. I would recommend only if you like the old movies.

A friend of mine told me that it was a good movie so I watched it.I fell in love with the movie and had to have it.It was such a great price for such a great movie.

this is a classic before the computer special effects saw this movie as a child and never forgot it i bought 2 copies one for my granddaughter and one for me when my granddaughter saw this movie on tv she couldn't believe how scared she got of a black and white movie that was showing in the middle of the day excellent for thrills

Of course it was better when it first came out but it is even pretty good now. Bette Davis gives a good performance. Decent storyline. Keeps your attention although you know what is going to happen next....

Jessica Lange is usually a great actress, she should not have taken this part! I could have written it, because I knew each scene before it happened! Lame movie, but, the movie promos had me hooked to watch it; those were the best parts (two)! Not recommended.
