Dead Ringer Specifications
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
Horror Movies Customer Reviews
Dead Ringer was and still is one of my all time favorite, but the more I watch the film the more I realize that he knew it was Edith who was going to run. No matter what she could not stay away. Like the police captain said he was obsessed. Would find stupid reasons to go to the palace Delorca just looking at it. Then when he pulled that number in the palace, I do not know Jim? This was swept away, but then the damage was already done. He could not leavehead when he was escorted off the gas chamer what he said? He knew when he was going to mess with your head, had to live with the fact that he had signed his death sentence. He would not let go no matter what. He was obsessed. Watch the expression on his face when he says "I Delorca Margaret Sargeant, as she says Edith would never hurt a fly" And 'the way she said cynically. I think he knew at that moment was Edith. Could be wrong,just my opinion. Probably will return to the palace and we all knew that the only question was the butler and the dog, the girl who knew too believe,
Another Bette Davis gem from the 1960's.... - J. Bilby - Kingston, New Hampshire United StatesI've always been a big fan of Bette Davis' work (she's from my hometown, Lowell, MA) and really enjoyed "What happened to Baby Jane?", "Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte" and "The Nanny". I had somehow missed this little gem of a duel role as Bette Davis. It is worth noting how technology has just arrived back in 1960 and this thriller film is well acted, black and white,
large sets, has only a few can create something to this day.
Just sit back and enjoy twoBette for the price of one!
BETTE DAVIS CLASSIC!! - Sherry N. Brantley - Chandler, AZ. USABette Davis gives his all in this second performance to play the dual role of being a twin! A pitiful poor and impoverished and other ridiculously rich astronomical oozing from his pores! Its home to a house says it all! Feeling rejected and betrayed years ago, to have his sister 'steal her man "and live the life he only dreamed of, and then find there is murder, lies and deceit Involved in the fabric of That lifestyle makes Bette great job of removingthe nuances of the characters, both in its role as twins! I watched with my daughters, so she could see what 'Movies are MADE OF REAL,' and as someone who actually has acting skills and experience portrays a character ... with more than just good looks! If you're a Bette Davis, this film may just convert!
