Status Updates From ¿Qué fue de Baby Jane?

Dnf

I feel empathy for both of them, and I think that's hard to do when one is supposed to be the villain. I feel like Blanche isn't as angelic as people make her out to be. And Jane is emotionally fragile, complex, and well, yes, just a little bit nuts. But I get it.

Hmm. Who's really the bad guy here?

What beautiful writing.

Whatever happened to baby Jane is just as campy as the movie. Blanche is so delicate and refined while all these bad things are happening to her that she’s just as ridiculous as crazy Jane. Blanch feels like the feckless democrats trying to be so virtuous and Jane like the vicious lunatic republicans out to destroy everything

"Cualquier cosa era preferible a la realidad muerta de su presente existencia."

"She took out a hammer, the largest and heaviest there was, and a large screwdriver. Armed with these, she started briskly out of the room and back in the direction of the stairs. One way or another, she told herself staunchly, that door was going to get itself opened."

"She may be your own sister, honey, your own flesh and blood, but you’ve got to face it, deep down inside she hates you like poison and nothing would please her more than to see you get it right in the neck." 😟

On the way home that night you fell asleep - fell unconscious- at the wheel. I managed to get the car stopped and I traded places with you. When we came to the gates, I woke you up and made you get out to open them. -page 200

Slightly creepy

Não consigo pensar em mais, tudo é Baby Jane

Não consigo pensar em mais nada que não seja baby jane

IMPRESSIONANTE

COMPLETAMENTE ALUCINADA OBCECADA DESESPERADA

Pre read: I love this movie and Joan Crawford and Bette Davis! I hope the book that inspired the film is just as good.

Damn

I feel a lot of anxiety reading this book so far, what a nightmare.

FINALLY getting some reading time in.

Wonderfully CHILLING!

Damn time has definitely changed in a lot of ways. Nowadays kids born out of wedlock are a dime a dozen and I don't see that as a thing that most kids will bully another kid for

mais um conto acabou e eu n entendi o final

eu não entendi nada de como terminou esse conto

Henry Farrell gosta de escrever sobre velhas malucas, né?

Blanche tried to hit Jane and the car hit the gates and Blanche was the one hurt and she crawled out and Jane went into shock and didn’t remember what happened. And Blanche let everyone assume and believe what happened

Jane got out to unlock the gate and the reason Jane went crazy recently was from watching the old movies, it brought the memories back and she knew Blanche was the reason for the accident

Oh ok, the newspaper had Jane and Blanche in the paper and Jane is under suspension and it’s because Edwin didn’t die. So he told them and everyone is looking for them

She brought her to the beach like the movie and it’s more clear Blanche died because she was starving and not eating and being drugs. I wasn’t too sure in the movie

Oh dang, she hit Edwin with the car after he left after seeing Blanche. Now Mrs. Bates is going to see the Hudson house for some reason because she knows it was Edwin. And she accused Jane of hitting him and then ran away.

Ok he came back

Jane feels remorse and in the movie didn’t really. Edwin didn’t see Blanche and didn’t come back after the first time. Mrs Bliss ? Got the note
