4.0 out of 5 stars NANNY DEAREST..., 24 Nov 2002
By Lawyeraau (Balmoral Castle) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)   
This is an excellent psychological thriller in which Bette Davis plays the part of a nanny in a household where a little girl, one of her charges, drowned in the bathtub and her older brother was blamed, even though he claimed that the nanny did it. After two years time spent in a therapeutic setting, the boy returns home, only to find the despised nanny still there. A cat and mouse game ensues between the two, and when his mother is poisoned, all eyes turn to him, though he once again insists that the nanny did it.

Deftly directed, with a well written, intelligent screenplay by Jimmy Sancster, who also wrote the screenplay for the Bette Davis vehicle, "The Anniversary", this is an engrossing film with a twist at the end that is sure to catch the viewer by surprise. The black and white cinematography adds to the atmosphere of suspense. Bette Davis is first rate as the nanny, and fine performances by the supporting cast contribute to its overall success.

This is a film that fans of Bette Davis are sure to enjoy, as will all those who like well done, psychological thrillers.

5.0 out of 5 stars are you ready for bet, 4 Jan 2001
By A Customer
as scary a hammer as ever you will see. to watch this horror will test the nerves to the limit. uniformally excellent perfomances from the whole cast, especially bet doing a powerhouse turn as the nanny and suprise wendy craig as the nurotic mother who thinks her son is just a touch deranged. believe me this is a film to be savoured. to tell you about it woul spoil an experience, just buy and enojoy to watch the total disintergration of that so 60's nuclear family..
