'In 1926 there was a young girl who had a dream - a girl who wanted to become an actress. She was not beautiful, she was not tall and willowy; she had a tiny high-pitched voice, but she did have drive and ambition. I had a dream that came true.'
(Bette Davis, 1 March 1977)

Earlier this year Bette Davis received the prestigious AFI Life Achievement Award - the first to an actress - after a career spanning more than 40 years which widely illustrates why she, more than any other star, deserved and won the title 'Queen of Hollywood'. With Jane Fonda as hostess, highlights from a star-studded occasion include contributions from Henry Fonda, Robert Wagner, Natalie Wood, Geraldine Fitzgerald, Paul Henreid, Olivia de Havilland, Peter Falk, Liza Minnelli - and from Bette Davis herself, on film and in person.
