Che fine ha fatto Baby Jane? (1962)
Blanche (Joan Crawford) e Baby Jane (Bette Davis) sono due anziane sorelle. Vivono insieme in una grande e un po’ decrepita casa. Entrambe sono state attrici: Baby Jane è stata una diva bambina, mentre Blanche ha avuto successo dopo, ma ha eclissato la sorella nei favori del pubblico. Ora Blanche è paralizzata in seguito a un incidente d’auto e Baby Jane si prende cura di lei, anche se il loro rapporto è minato dall’invidia reciproca e da una sorta di strisciante ostilità. Baby Jane, infatti, sogna di ridare linfa alla sua carriera con un improbabile ritorno alle scene, ma è turbata e seccata dalla popolarità di cui ancora gode Blanche. Ciò la porta a trattare la sorella con una punta di sadismo. Le cose, in bilico su un tragico equilibrio, non possono che precipitare.
