"Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night."

Possibly the most famous line uttered by Betty Davis in a movie.
"Laura" is on TCM right now.

Gene Tierney and Dana Andrews are a classic pairing and I just finished watching the last part of the movie, one of my favorites and it's been awhile since I've seen it...

It's "Bette." Bette midler was named after her by her movie-loving mom, who thought it was pronounced "Bet."
