FEUD: BETTE AND JOAN
FX, 10:00 p.m. ET
Episode 2 of this new Feud anthology miniseries from Ryan Murphy – like American Crime, a hybrid anthology series and miniseries – really gets into the dynamics of the battle between Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, as they begin filming the 1960s horror film What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? This is the episode in which Crawford bares both her insecurities and her fangs – and in which Davis (played by Susan Sarandon), in a brilliant move to upstage her screen co-star, emerges from her dressing room at the start of filming with a layer of makeup inspired by Japanese kabuki actors.
