Title: AND WHEN SHE WAS BAD.....
Product review: ....she was excellent. The legendary Bette Davis stars as a wealthy woman who uses her tongue as a machete to slice & dice her three grown sons and their significant others. She will stop at nothing, including blackmail and quite possibly even murder, to retain her control over them and their lives. Based on the stage play, this ultra-black British comedy/drama takes place during one evening as Mrs.Taggert (Davis) has her annual wedding anniversary celebration (Mr.Taggert is deceased) with her family paying her the usual (and reticent) homage. When the youngest son's new girlfriend tries to exert her influence, things begin to go awry. Anchor Bay has offered a fine print that's worth owning. The film shows it's stage origins a bit but the British cast is great and Davis is magnificent in a very, very wicked role. You may want to see it again just to catch some of her lines as the script is pungent and full of verbal slap-downs. Enjoy this one.
