{"product_id":"book-1579","title":"Bette Davis","description":"\u003cp\u003eShe was the tempestuous, strong-willed woman who ignited the movie screen with her legendary performances in \u003cem\u003eOf Human Bondage\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eJezebel\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eAll About Eve\u003c\/em\u003e. Off-camera, Bette Davis fought endless contractual battles with studios and survived four disastrous marriages, earning a larger-than-life reputation as an actress to be reckoned with. In this extraordinary biography, fans and film historians will discover a different, darker side of Bette Davis: a woman beset with scarring personal and professional doubts, a daughter whose mother was devoted to her success, and a mother who loved her own daughter to distraction. Obsessive and compulsive, Davis was happy only when she was working, but did not always choose her projects wisely. She fought a lifelong battle with alcohol, and she had an insatiable need to be loved, often at great emotional cost. A legend, a star, a remarkable woman, Bette Davis lived her life as if it were a coveted role she was desperately afraid she might not win.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blackstone Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49302893134128,"sku":"BD1579","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/1579-Square-cover.jpg?v=1775522806","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-1579","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
