Directed by: Robert Aldrich
Starring: Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Victor Buono, Wesley Addy
Jane: I don't want to talk about it! Everytime I think about something nice, you remind me of bad things. I only want to talk about the nice things.
Dehlia Flagg: Oh, this sounds like just the ticket, doesn't it?
Blanche: You said this last month, she's been a lot worst. Do you think she knows?
Elvira Stitt: About selling the house? How could she? You don't have anything in writing.
Blanche: We're sisters, Elvira. We know each other very well.
Continuity mistake: In the first scene featuring next door neighbor Mrs. Bates, she places the telephone on the coffee table twice.
Trivia: The teenage neighbour to the Hudson sisters is Bette Davis' real-life daughter, Barbara Merrill.
Question: At the end of the film, Joan Crawford/Blanche lies on the beach, brutalized and starved by Bette Davis/Jane. Does Blanche then die, or will Blanche continue to live? For that matter, Jane is still alive, (although probably insane), so what will happen to Jane?
Answer: Blanche's fate is left ambiguous, so it's impossible to say if she survived or not. It is not revealed in the original novel. Jane would most likely be institutionalized, seeing as she is suffering a complete break from reality at the end of the film.
