Davis's control in The Letter is only in part a matter of repression. She plays Leslie Crosbie as a bored, stifled housewife forced to expend her libido in the creation of a crocheted white coverlet. Still, her Leslie is also a sociopath, a calculating killer and remorseless liar, ceaselessly putting on acts for those around her because authentic emotions — other than murderous rage, that is — are not part of her psychological makeup. Even as Leslie fires the gun repeatedly at Hammond's dead body in the opening moments of the film, her face is stonelike, her feelings impossible to penetrate, and it's this ambiguity that makes it possible for audiences to question Leslie's motives from the beginning, even while we give her some benefit of the doubt. (Ed Sikov, Dark Victory: The Life of Bette Davis)

#girls5eva #girls5evaedit #summer dutkowsky #gloria mcmanus #busy philipps #wickie roy #dawn solano #sine's gifs #does Summer know that Bette Davis "tried being a lesbian” and that Crawford tried to seduce her multiple times? the audiobooks probably #didn't cover that <3 #also it would have been topical had she mentioned something about tatu--larry sounds as gross as ivan. #she could have commented on the hypocrisy. the girls pretended to be gay to sell their first album abroad. #meanwhile in local interviews they'd say 'we are normal and have boyfriends.' one of them is openly homophobic supports putin and has run #for office. #anyway i know the series has no such intentions and sum is supposed to be a good/supportive sister but #that doesn't mean I don't think she would benefit from dating a lady now that she is independent/her own person #(preferably gloria but honestly any lady would do) #it wouldn't be hard to buy given that she hasn't had the opportunity to explore her sexuality what with the purity rings and upbringing #// #i wanted to add more moments but eh
