NOW, VOYAGER (1942) Academy Award Winner* A mother-dominated ugly duckling turned swan discovers independence – and love. Grab the moon, the stars and a shining Bette Davis in one of Hollywood’s most tender and touching screen romances.

Nugent wrote, in her signature role as a spoiled society girl facing terminal illness – and a last chance to give her life meaning. OLD ACQUAINTANCE (1943) Davis and Miriam Hopkins’s friendship is a 20-year balancing act of handholding, backstabbing and femme fireworks. “Splendid battle of the wild cats, with two stars fighting their way through a plush production”(Halliwell’s Film Guide). JEZEBEL (1938) Winner of 2 Academy Awards* As a manipulative New Orleans belle, Davis sows a tempest and reaps a whirlwind in a fiery antebellum classic, winning an Oscar for her work.
