Frequently Asked Questions
- What is The Whales of August / Little Foxes about?
THE WHALES OF AUGUST, 1987, Alive Films, 90 min. Dir. Lindsay Anderson. Bette Davis joins another screen legend, Lillian Gish, for this lovely tale of two sisters spending the summer, as they have for 60 years, on a picturesque island off the coast of Maine. Lindsay Anderson displays a deep love for Hollywood's past with his casting here, which includes not only Davis and Gish but veterans Vincent Price, Ann Sothern and Harry Carey Jr. A profound meditation on aging and a tribute to Hollywood's past, this is perhaps the best of Davis' later films.
THE LITTLE FOXES, 1941, Samuel Goldwyn Films, 115 min. Dir. William Wyler. Bette Davis is a ruthless member of a Southern clan facing financial decline, and she's backed up by a stunning supporting cast that includes Dan Duryea and Teresa Wright in their film debuts.
