Crazy boring almost all the way through and then some jawdropping stuff

The Scott Walker needle drop was sick

This movie does not deserve the classic label. The main characters’ story arcs are flat lines. The snoopy neighbor and Edwin arcs build up to absolutely nothing. (Seriously, does Edwin just run home?). Completely baffling decisions throughout (including some egregious ones by the maid Elvira). The family background in the intro ham-handedly tries to set up the two sisters’ characters—who apparently will be this way for their entire lives—in one scene. Oh I see, Baby Jane is actually a spoiled brat and her sister is sweet. Or is she? Wait til you see the ridiculous twist. *dancing on the beach*

Do you ever yearn?
