The story of the legendary rivalry between Bette Davis and Joan Crawford which began early on their careers, climaxed on the set of "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?" and evolved into an Oscar vendetta.

Truman Capote surrounded himself with some of society's most elite women, whom he nicknamed "the swans," but his act of betrayal destroyed those relationships, banished him from high society and sent him into a spiral of self-destruction.

Season 1 was remarkable and had incredible acting and writing. The editing was very tight as well, and the entire season I kept thinking how brilliant the show was. It was a great example of a story that needed to be told over several hours, instead of a 2 hour movie. On the other hand, Season 2 was a very weird season. Like I almost think the writers were all very intoxicated or on heavy pain medication. Bizarre storylines and the acting took a deep nosedive compared to Jessica Lange's season. Overall it seemed self-indulgent and parts of it was gross. I won't be watching anything else that Ryan Murphy makes. 🤢
