Feud: Bette and Joan (2017)
Episode 3: Mommie Dearest
Episode three takes a look at Bette (Susan Sarandon) and Joan (Jessica Lange) and their relationship towards each other as well as with their daughters. Bette is having to deal with her young daughter getting a role in WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? while Joan is questioned by her co-star on the toughness she shows her children.
This third episode is another very entertaining one as we get a lot more behind-the-scenes struggles as both Davis and Crawford use the press to try and make themselves the star of the picture as well as try to build up early Oscar support. In one of the funniest moments, the director has to scream at both of the women because they're fighting over an Oscar even though the movie isn't completed.
If you've enjoyed the first two episodes then there's no question that the entertainment will continue here. There's a lot of good scenes dealing with the two women battling and it's certainly a lot of fun. Of course, the two lead actresses deserve a lot of credit for really digging into these roles and you can't help but believe both Sarandon and Lange in the roles.
