Finished the first short story, Whatever Happened To Cousin Charlotte?, a Southern Gothic tale which is enjoyable but feels somewhat underwritten. In this case, I preferred the movie, retitled Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte.

Actually done with Baby Jane and on to Cousin Charlotte, one of the short stories included in this edition. LOVED Baby Jane. Review coming soon.

The 1930s melodrama dialogue is absolutely on point. Joan Crawford was perfect casting for Blanche, I can hear her saying all this in her dulcet mid-Atlantic accent.

'"I make the money, so I can have whatever I want. You can't stop me!"' Baby Jane presents as a spoiled brat here, screaming for ice-cream, but she's got a point. She's sacrificed her childhood to be the family breadwinner, so why shouldn't she treat herself? Many child stars grew up to find their career was kaput and their parents had spent all their money, so she'd better get that ice-cream while she can.
