Movie Reviews of Dead Ringer
Movie Review: Great Bette Davis Flick
Summary: 5 Stars
This has always been one of my favorites of Bette Davis. How much better can you get than Bette Davis playing twins in a tragic tale? Classic
Summary of Dead Ringer
One twin murders another and takes her place, but people begin to suspect something is wrong.Genre: Feature Film-Drama
Rating: NR
Release Date: 10-AUG-2004
Media Type: DVD
Hot on the heels of What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?, Bette Davis slipped neatly into another juicy thriller. This time, instead of co-starring with Joan Crawford, she got to play opposite... herself. Dead Ringer casts Davis as a wealthy (and nasty) widow, and also as her slatternly (but good) twin sister, long estranged. When the poor sister discovers the depths of her sib's evil, she takes a dramatic step that will test her skills as a thespian. Davis's old leading man, Paul Henreid, directs this material at a leaden pace, but Davis gives such a brazen performance, she pulls it through. Plus, the moments of high trash (a red-hot poker rammed into a hand, a lethal dog attack) are easily savored. Peter Lawford's seedy playboy and Karl Malden's stolid cop fill out the key supporting roles--not that anybody else matters. This is Bette Davis's world; everybody else is just visiting. --Robert Horton
