Sibling Rivalry / What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? (1962) with Taffeta V

This week brings a new month and a new topic. What better way to kick off the topic of sibling rivalry with a classic of old world Hollywood that featured one of the most iconic feuds in movie history? Mike is joined by good friend Taffeta V (of the LATE podcast) to talk about WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? We discuss the real hatred between its stars Bette Davis & Joan Crawford, the burden of long term caregiving, the multitude of ways sibling rivalry rears its ugly head, and why Hollywood loves watching women of a certain age duke it out. We also explore the causes of sibling rivalry and discuss theories on birth order and personality development in our mental health section.
