Coming to DVD: Bette Davis Collection, Volume 3

April 1st will see the release of a terrific new DVD set containing a half-dozen Bette Davis films.

The movies in the set are IN THIS OUR LIFE, THE GREAT LIE, WATCH ON THE RHINE, DECEPTION, THE OLD MAID, and ALL THIS, AND HEAVEN TOO.

Extras include commentaries on four of the films, including one by the great film historian Jeanine Basinger for IN THIS OUR LIFE; a documentary on Davis; and Warner Night at the Movies, with year-appropriate newsreels, shorts, trailers, and cartoons accompanying each film.

Laura, are you surprised that Now, Voyager or All About Eve were not included?

ALL ABOUT EVE was previously released in a different series, the Fox Studio Classics series...since it was later in Davis's career, it was a different studio than this Warner set.

Here's a link for ALL ABOUT EVE. It's a wonderful DVD set!

NOW VOYAGER came out with an earlier set. I don't have it and I really should consider it!!

You're so right that these are great movies deserving of being on DVD.

Best wishes,
Laura
