“You mean all this time we could have been friends?”
From the very beginning, we know something is wrong. Child star Baby Jane Hudson (Julie Allred) is beloved by her fans as she performs her vaudevillian routine. But things are amiss. Baby Jane’s stage persona is too saccharine, too unnatural to be pleasing. Those “Baby Jane” dolls in the lobby are eerie and off-putting, the embodiment of Jane’s phony kewpie doll act. Jane’s backstage behavior is appallingly bratty and manipulative. And that song, that horrifying song…. It seems everyone is too distracted by Jane’s perfect ringlets to see the disturbingly sexualized, necrophilic undertones of her signature number. Daily regurgitation of such lyrics cannot a healthy mind make.
