And people say she wasn’t a good rose she was amazing as rose the desperation and how pathetic she seems is how rose should be played cause at the end of it all rose is truly a tragic figure
Yes she did & some, no one has done such an amazing job with performing on stage & TV & movies & that is why she is such a legend & Icon, awesome performance
I hate people trying to criticize and compare her to Lupone when Bette was just as good she’s clinging on to desperation and want it for herself under the guise of doing it for her daughter it’s exactly how rose is portrayed even Julie Styne who made the music of the original show loved the movie and Bette as rose
Bette Midler should win an award for being the actress with the best use of her hands in acting. Any movie you watch with her in the cast you will notice that she moves her hands to accentuate whatever she is doing or whatever point she is making along with her body and voice in the dialogue or songs
